Hilda In Lights chases her Broadway dream
In a move that signals a deep commitment to quality and long-term content development, CBS is setting its sights on a classic comedy with an exciting new pilot.
The broadcast network has officially greenlit Hilda! (In Lights!), a single-camera comedy from CBS Studios that had been in advanced development. This decision positions CBS as the first broadcast network to order a pilot for consideration in the upcoming 2027-28 television season.
The project brings an established vision to the screen, focusing on a style often associated with timeless and heartwarming storytelling. The show has been penned by Abbey Caldwell (Laid), bringing a unique sensibility to the narrative.
