Amber Dowling Jennica Harper and Nela Handa are taking over showrunning duties on CBC’s “Run The Burbs” for the comedy’s third season.
The show was renewed a week before the Season 2 finale in March for a planned winter 2024 broadcast. Harper and Handa are long-time collaborators, having worked together for three seasons on the Bell Media series “JANN” starring Jann Arden.
Harper served as showrunner on all three seasons of the series, along with the 2022 holiday special. The Writers Guild of Canada Screenwriting Award winner’s other credits include “Spencer Sisters,” “Skymed” and “Cardinal.” Handa wrote on the first two seasons of “Run The Burbs” and also won a Peabody Award for her contribution to the first season of the CBC/Max series “Sort Of.” In 2021 she also won a Canadian Screen Award for best writing on “The Baroness Von Sketch Show.” In February, she was one of six participants named to the second year of CBC, BIPOC TV & Film and CFC’s Showrunner Catalyst Program. “Run The Burbs” was co-created by Andrew Phung (“Kim’s Convenience” ) and filmmaker Scott Townend (“The Secret Marathon”).
The half-hour comedy follows the Pham family, a Vietnamese-South Asian-Canadian family that takes a different approach to living life to the fullest in the suburbs.
