A comedy is in the works at ABC based on the life of Alanis Morissette.
The show is called Relatable and is being written by Elizabeth Beckwith. According to the show outline, the show “follows a 40-something woman, married with three kids, who spent her young adult life as an international rock star, famous for her self-penned anthems of female rage and teen angst, ABC’s description reads. Now this “voice of her generation,” although deeply bonded with her family, can’t quite get the next generation living in her house to listen to her.”
The outline makes it clear that the characters are fictional and the story is not biographical, but it will be loosely based on Morissette.
Morissette is an executive producer and will also write music for the show.
