Tracy Morgan is set to star in a brand new sitcom at Paramount+ which will be a spin-off series to the very popular CBS series The Neighborhood. Variety reports that the new 30minute sitcom will be called Crutch, where he’ll play the role of Francois “Frank” Crutchfield. Morgan’s character is “a Harlem widower whose empty-nest plans are put on hold after his millennial son and free-spirited daughter move back home.”
“Crutch will be navigating the ups and downs of having his kids and grandkids back under one roof, and you know if I am doing this, there will be plenty of laughs along the way,” said Morgan. “I am so happy to be able to do this with my brother Cedric The Entertainer, Owen Smith and the rest of the amazing crew we have put together. Get ready for your new favorite show!”
The series will be executive produced by comedian Cedric The Entertainer.
