Production

Development

On January 17, 2017, it was announced that CBS had given the production a pilot order as 9J, 9K and 9L. [21] The episode was written and authored by Mark Feuerstein who was expected to executive produce along with Dana Klein, Aaron Kaplan, Wendi Trilling and Dana Honor. Production companies involved with the pilot include Liscolaide Productions, Trill TV, Kapital Entertainment, and CBS Television Studios. On May 12, 2017, CBS officially ordered the pilot to series. [22] A few days later, it was announced that the series, now titled 9JKL, would premiere on October 2, 2017 and airs on Mondays at 9:30 P.M. On November 17, 2017, CBS picked up the series for a full season of 16 episodes. [23]

Casting

In February 2017, it was announced that David Walton, Matt Murray and Liza Lapira had been cast in the pilot's lead roles. [24] [25] [26] On March 6, 2017, it was reported that both Linda Lavin and Elliott Gould had also joined the pilot's main cast. [27] On June 19, 2017, it was announced that Albert Tsai had been cast to the regular series. [28]

Cancellation

On May 12, 2018, it was announced that CBS officially cancelled 9JKL, along with Kevin Can Wait , Superior Donuts , Living Biblically , and Me, Myself & I . A combination of factors, including declining ratings, CBS's desire to have an ownership stake (which is contradictory, as CBS Television Studios already produces 9JKL), and the network needing to clear space for three new sitcoms in the fall 2018 schedule, led to the show's demise.

Home media

The full complete series was released on DVD as for CBS Home Entertainment on November 26, 2019. [29]

Reception

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported an approval rating of 19% based on 16 reviews. The website’s consensus reads: " Irritatingly uninspired, 9jkl leaves its talented cast out in the cold." [30] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 37 out of 100 based on 10 critics, indicating "generally unfavorable reviews". [31]
