The series will join the network’s sophomore comedy series <em>Schitt’s Creek</em>, which launched its second season earlier this year, according to network officials.</p><p>On the unscripted front, the network in 2017 will launch <em>Hollywood Darlings</em>, which follows the lives of three childhood stars of the 1990s including Jodie Sweetin (<em>Full House</em> and <em>Fuller House</em>), Christine Lakin (<em>Step By Step</em>) and Beverley Mitchell (<em>7th Heaven</em>), said network officials. The series joins other launched or previously announced shows including <em>Unusually Thicke</em>, <em>Rock This Boat: New Kids On The Block</em>, <em>Big Brother After Dark</em>, <em>Sing It On</em> and <em>Easiest Game Show Ever.</em></p><p>“We are heading into this upfront season with great momentum, increased distribution and a diverse portfolio of original programming that delivers on our brand promise of celebrating fan-driven content and exceptional talent,” Pop president Brad Schwartz said in a release. “One year following our rebrand, Pop is defying the industry trend with growth in ratings and growth in distribution, along with a programming line-up that is uniquely poised to capture our target audience of ‘Modern Grown-ups’— socially engaged, passionate entertainment fans who love celebrating the good times in life, both those behind you and those to come.”</p>
