Well, ABC decided to kill the FUNNY IN FARSI sit-com. I am so sorry and SO disappointed. The pilot was hilarious and had many, many fans at ABC but the decision came down to just one person, the president of ABC and he passed on it.

What I am most sorry about is that this show had writers, actors and supporters of all backgrounds and it was truly laugh-out-loud funny. It would have been a groundbreaking series, believe me. For whatever reason, the president of ABC did not see its value.

The Facebook site for the series had 12,000 fans eagerly waiting for the show. The fans were from all over the world. As admin, I could see where the fans originate. It was a veritable United Nations, humor being the common ground.

I will recuperate from this…it feels like someone hit me over the head with a mallet, and then decide what to do next. ABC owns the script so I’ll have to think of something else. Given time, I trust I will.

Thank you again for all your support. It really does make a difference.
