The Fox network, which has been aiming to bring back the family-comedy-with-a-twist genre of TV series, is developing "The New McToms," a hybrid multi- and single-camera half-hour executive produced by Salma Hayek.
Fox has a track record of success with that sort of show, having scored with the multicamera "Married ... With Children" and single-camera "Malcolm In the Middle."
Written by Boyce Bugliari and Jamie McLaughlin, "McToms" centers on a conservative matriarch who must face the reality of her three children's ethnically diverse marriages.ABC Studios, where Hayek's Ventanarosa has an overall deal, is producing the project.
"McToms" carries the trademark ethnic flavor that is featured in most projects on Hayek's TV slate, including the ABC comedy-drama "Ugly Betty," which she executive produces.On the reality side, Hayek is developing a wedding-themed reality series with Merv Griffin Entertainment.
