Showrunner Gail Lerner has been dismissed from NBC's new sitcom "Newlyweds" prior to its premiere, according to an exclusive report. The decision comes amid reported creative differences, a revelation shared by Lerner on her Instagram account. Lerner elaborated that while the reason given for her departure was "creative differences," an insider with knowledge of the situation told TheWrap that several episodes of the series have already been completed, with filming for Episode 8 currently underway in Los Angeles.
As such, the dismissal does not appear to affect the show's planned October 23 premiere on NBC. NBC confirmed to TheWrap that Lerner's exit was due to creative differences, though the network did not provide further details. Lerner's co-creator Jamie Lee Curtis, who also serves as an executive producer and recurring star, will remain with the show.
