Todd Holland, the Emmy-winning director (“The Larry Sanders Show,” “Malcolm in the Middle”),“has set up a single-camera half-hour comedy [called] ‘The Homefront’ at ABC,” writes our friend Nellie Andreeva at Deadline.com. She notes that the project is from ABC Studios.

The story reports: “Written by Colleen McGuinness (‘30 Rock’), ‘The Homefront’ is described as ‘”Everybody Loves Raymond” meets “American Sniper.”’ Loosely based on the life of McGuinness, whose father is a retired Green Beret, it centers on a retired Green Beret who comes back to the U.S. and moves near his grown daughter and grandkids, only to find that it’s easier to face death every day than to live in the suburbs.”
