Chelsea Frei & Catherine Cohen Starring ‘While You Were Breeding’ Not Moving Forward at Freeform

Sad news for Chelsea Frei and Catherine Cohen fans…

It was recently revealed that their upcoming new TV series While You Were Breeding is no longer happening at Freeform, according to Deadline.

The upcoming comedy getting scrapped at the network is seemingly a direct result of the writer’s strike.

While the series had filmed all ten episodes of it’s first season, they stopped post production when the writer’s strike started, months ahead of it’s tentative August 2023 premiere.

This isn’t the end though, as it is being reported that the producers of the show could have the option of shopping the show to another network.

While You Were Breeding is written and executive produced by Kristin Newman, and it’s based off of her memoir of the same name.

The show follows Kacey (Frei), single for the first time in her 30s, as she escapes her fast-paced life in Los Angeles to see the world. From culture clash to vacation romances, this internationally set dramedy is a globetrotting journey of self-discovery that will inspire the wanderlust inside everyone.

Alice Hunter and Kosha Patel were also to star.

Along with many other studios, Disney (who owns Freeform) is taking another look at their content amid both the writer’s strike and the actor’s strike. Another Disney casualty is The Spiderwick Chronicles, which was set up at Disney+. They also completed filming and are looking for a new home.

It was recently announced that Freeform has added three new unscripted shows to it’s upcoming lineup, including one with Chrissy Teigen!
