CBS has given a series order to the vampire comedy Eternally Yours, following recent casting announcements for its pilot. The single-camera series, from Ghosts showrunners Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, stars Ed Weeks and Allegra Edwards as a long-married vampire couple. In a related move, the network has passed on the multi-camera pilot The Tillbrooks.
Building on March casting updates that rounded out the ensemble—including recent additions Rose Abdoo, Tristan Michael Brown, and Shylo Molina—CBS announced a series order for Eternally Yours, a vampire comedy created by Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, the showrunners behind Ghosts. The show centers on Ed Weeks (The Mindy Project) and Allegra Edwards (Upload) as a vampire couple whose 500-year romance has turned into a routine, pulseless marriage, disrupted when their vampire daughter (Helen J. Shen) introduces her human boyfriend (Jaren Lewison). The supporting cast includes Parker Young.
Port and Wiseman will executive produce. The series order positions Eternally Yours for CBS's next primetime lineup, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Meanwhile, CBS has scrapped The Tillbrooks, a multi-camera comedy pilot starring Kate Walsh and Rhys Darby as a wealthy couple in 19th-century English high society.
