TMZ reported Friday that there have been discussions about putting together a version of the series without Barr. But a person aware of the talks who could not comment on them publicly said there have been no communications on the matter with ABC beyond the network letting Carsey-Werner know that it would be willing to listen to spinoff ideas. No actual plan has come to the network and there have been no meetings with the network’s entertainment division.
