Super Fun Night is an American sitcom that aired from October 2, 2013, to February 19, 2014, on ABC. The series was broadcast during the 2013–14 television season on ABC in the Wednesday night 9:30 pm (ET/PT) slot after Modern Family. The series starred and was created by Rebel Wilson; it was green-lit by ABC for a series order pick-up on May 10, 2013.
On May 9, 2014, ABC canceled the series after one season.
For the past 13 years, three single ladies have set aside every Friday night as "Friday Fun Night". That is, until one of the women, Kimmie Boubier (played by Wilson), decides it is time to take this party to the next level after befriending a fellow attorney.
Super Fun Night was originally planned for CBS as a possible pilot for the 2012–13 season. After the network passed on the project, Warner Bros. took it over to ABC. It became a fast track to greenlight status, resulting in the series receiving a pick-up for the 2013–14 season. The series original pilot was filmed in multi-camera but was changed by ABC to single-camera. The series premiered with the intended second episode instead of the pilot. This caused the Halloween episode to air over 2 weeks before Halloween. The pilot would later air as the eighth episode.
In the CBS pilot, the lead roles were to star Wilson, Jenny Slate and Edi Patterson, but after ABC picked up the project, both Slate and Patterson were dropped from the cast, and the show was retooled, with Ash and Lapira landing the co-leads. Other casting changes from the unaired pilot include Jazmine Boubier (played by Deborah Baker Jr., later recast to Ashley Tisdale), Jason, Jazmine's boyfriend (played by Alan Ritchson, later recast to Darin Brooks), and Felicity Vanderstone, played by Kelen Coleman. In the case of Vanderstone, the character was recast and renamed Kendall Quinn (played by Australian actress, Kate Jenkinson).
