Fox has some abandonment issues.

The network has inked a first-look deal for Living With Abandon, an independently produced single-camera comedy pilot.

Written by Richie Keen and Heath Corson (Hooked) and directed by Keen, Abandon stars Todd Grinnell, Ed Quinn, Melissa Peterman, Rachel Specter and 14-year-old Nick Dodani as the members of an abandonment support group who suffer a blow when their therapist commits suicide. Left to fend for themselves, the members band together to solve each other’s issues.

“This is a show about the family that we all chose in life,” Keen said.
