NBC takes on Dangerous Moms

Mediaset España and Producciones Mandarina’s comedy drama Señoras del (h)Ampa

US broadcaster NBC has ordered a pilot episode of a dark comedy-drama based on Spanish series Señoras del (h)Ampa.

Dangerous Moms follows four diverse mothers who accidentally kill the queen bee of their school’s parent-teacher association during the demonstration of a new high-end food processor.

Described by NBC as a “female anthem about friendship and family,” the show centres on the completely unprepared group of women who must juggle their everyday lives while their worlds are turned upside down.

NBC’s one-hour pilot will be produced by Warner Bros Television and written and exec produced by Janine Sherman Barrois.

Also exec producing are Rachel Kaplan, through her recently launched prodco Absecon Entertainment; Intrigue Entertainment’s CEO Tariq Jalil and senior VP of film and television Lucas Carter; Mediaset España’s director of fiction Arantxa Écija; and Producciones Mandarina founder Santi Botello.

Señoras del (h)Ampa is produced by Mediaset España and Producciones Mandarina. Created, written and directed by Carlos del Hoyo and Abril Zamora, the first season aired on Telecinco in 2019. The ongoing second season is available exclusively on Amazon Prime Video.
