ABC orders pilot from comedian Gould

ABC has ordered a comedy pilot from writer and comedian Dana Gould.

The single-camera sitcom stars Gould as a high school guidance counsellor and conflicted father, says The Hollywood Reporter.

The character is torn between raising his children using his father's conservative approach and his wife's progressive ideals.

Gould is also producing with collaborators Tom Lassally and Dave Becky.

The comedian's stand-up routine has been featured on Comedy Central, HBO and Showtime.
