Netflix has ordered new comedy ALEXA & KATIE to series. The show is a multi-cam comedy about two lifelong best friends eagerly anticipating the start of their freshman year of high school. The friends confront a crisis that leaves them feeling like outsiders, at a time when what seems to matter most is fitting in.
Lead characters are played by Paris Berelc (Mighty Med, Lab Rats: Elite Force), who stars as Alexa, and newcomer Isabel May, who plays Katie. Alexa & Katie was created by Heather Wordham (Hannah Montana, Reba). Matthew Carlson (Malcolm in the Middle, Samantha Who?) serves as showrunner. Both Wordham and Carlson are executive producers. The 13-episode, first season will be produced by Netflix.Videos
