Roommates is an American television sitcom developed by ABC Family and Acme Productions that premiered on March 23, 2009.[1] On April 29 2009, it was announced that Roommates would not return for a second season.[2]
Overview
The show focuses on a group of twentysomethings who move in together after college. The show is ABC Family’s first scripted half hour comedy.[3]
The series follows five very different characters and their struggles through life. The main focus of the show revolves Mark a struggling actor who thinks his dream has come true when he runs into hig-school crush Katie and finds she is after a new roommate. Mark takes the chance, moves in and starts to find a way to win her heart. Katie completley oblivious to this still has a hard time getting over previous boyfriend, Ben, and looks at Mark for support.
The other two roommates Hope and James, both have their own problems... Hope longing for an upscale job after losing her job from the televsion studio and Tommy bringing a slapstic comedy as he takes a delight in watching Marks attempts to "Woo" Katie. The series would not have quite the same edge without Thom, Marks Ex-Roommate, who feels he is destined to help Mark in his quest to be a unit with Katie.[4]
