Bianca Santos (The Fosters) will lead the cast of MTV‘s comedy pilot Happyland. Also cast in the project, written by Ben Epstein, directed by Lee Toland Krieger and executive produced by Neil Meron and Craig Zadan, are Zulay Henao (Love Thy Neighbor), Shane Harper (Awkward), Katherine McNamara (Contest) and Cameron Moulene (Raising Hope).

Happyland is a soapy teen comedy exploring the underbelly of one of the country’s most popular theme parks and those who work there. It centers on Lucy (Santos), a cynical teen working as a greeter at the park where her single mother (Henao) has played a fairytale princess for 15 years, and explores the realities of growing up and falling in love while living in a make-believe world. Harper will play Ian, the handsome son of the park’s new president, a new hire at the park who is smitten by feisty Lucy.

McNamara, repped by CESD and Principato-Young, will play Harper, a resident of the park who goes after Ian despite the fact that she has a boyfriend, Will (Moulene), a character performer at the park. Guest starring in the pilot are Brady Smith (White Collar) and Ryan Rottman (90210) as Ian’s father and brother, respectively. Santos is with Luber Roklin and Innovative; Henao, who will continue on OWN’s Love Thy Neighbor as a recurring and has feature Single Mom’s Club coming out, is with Mosaic and CAA.

Ich fand Bianca Santos in The Fosters ganz ordentlich. Ob die Serie aber deshalb geguckt wird, sofern sie denn überhaupt bestellt wird, weiß ich noch nicht.

MTV has picked up both of its comedy pilots, Happyland and Faking It, to series with eight-episode orders. These were the first MTV scripted pilots greenlighted by the network’s new regime of president Susanne Daniels and and head of scripted Mina Lefevre. Happyland, written by Ben Epstein and executive produced by Storyline’s Neil Meron and Craig Zadan, is described as a soapy teen comedy which explores the underbelly of one of the country’s most popular theme parks and those who work there. The pilot, directed by Lee Toland Krieger, starred Bianca Santos, Zulay Henao, Shane Harper, Katherine McNamara, Cameron Moulene, Brady Smith and Ryan Rottman. Faking It, from 10 Things I Hate About You developer Carter Covington, revolves around two best friends who will do almost anything to fit in and be popular in high school — including pretending to be something they are not. The cast of the pilot, directed by Jamie Travis, included Bailey Buntain, Gregg Sulkin, Katie Stevens, Michael Willett, Rita Volk. On the drama side, MTV has pilots Eye Candy and Finding Carter, now casting.

MTV's 'Happyland' Canceled

Zitat:

The comedy set at an amusement park will not return for a second run

It's a sad day at Happyland.

The MTV comedy series created by Ben Epstein and exec produced by Peter Pan and Smash duo Neil Meron and Craig Zadan has been canceled after one season, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.

The soapy teen comedy explored the underbelly of one of the country's most popular theme parks and those who work there. The project centers on Lucy, a cynical teen whose mother makes a living as a fairy-tale princess, and explores the realities of growing up and falling in love while living in a make-believe world.

The series debuted in September and averaged a barely-there audience with a 0.2 among adults 18-49 and 370,000 total viewers despite being packaged with MTV's successful comedies Awkward and Faking It.

Critics were not kind to the series during last year's Television Critics Association tour stop, in which the show was criticized for its incest-like storyline. The end of the pilot featured a reveal that the show's leading lady and her young suitor may be brother and sister — after they kissed.

MTV, meanwhile, still has original comedies Faking It and Awkward, the latter of which was renewed for a fifth and final season. On the drama side, MTV's inventory includes Finding Carter, Teen Wolf, Eye Candy, Shannara and Scream.
