Peacock developing Amy Poehler's Division One and Mindy Kaling's Expecting

Variety

Poehler is teaming with Maggie Carey on Division One, "a coming-of-age comedy about an underdog women’s collegiate soccer team that gets a new female coach – a former professional soccer player who’s fallen from grace – and must decide whether or not they’re going to take the risk of trying to be great." Carey will write, direct and executive produce Division One. Kaling's Expecting, from writer Chris Schleicher, "centers on Ellie, a fiercely independent but perpetually single music manager who has always wanted a family but never found a man worthy of the role of “father.” When she reaches her 39th birthday, Ellie decides to ask her gay best friend and co-worker, Jonathan, if he’ll be her sperm donor."
