AspireTV Gets First Ever Original Sitcom; Sullivan's Crossing Returns for Season 4 in April on The CW

AspireTV, the network that celebrates and reflects Black culture and urban lifestyle, announced its first-ever original scripted series, Savannah State of Mind. Now in pre-production, the multi-camera sitcom is set to premiere later this year, with casting currently underway. Bentley Kyle Evans (The Jamie Foxx Show, Martin) will executive produce the series through his Harvest Studios production banner.

Savannah State of Mind follows the lives of seven first-year students navigating the joys, challenges and complexities of college life at a historically Black college. With its picturesque campus surrounded by Spanish moss and steeped in tradition, the fictitious Oakwood Heights University has always been a place of pride for its students. But recent financial struggles have threatened its future. Thanks to a mysterious love offering from an anonymous donor, the school is experiencing a resurgence, and students and faculty alike are determined to protect its legacy.
