I pitched a movie now I also have a show idea. (I don't know how these work anymore so work with me)

Based on what I'm reading Wiki Channel doesn't have many family comedies, so I thought I'd make one.

It's called "The Family Plan" (or maybe just "Family Plan")

It may be too similar to GLC but still... might as well try.

It's also about a Spanish/Mexican family (in America) so that we can have more stars from other countries :)

The plot:

The Acosta family is a big and busy family. With two traveling parents, three busy teenagers, twin tweens, and triplet toddlers, no one has much time for anything except themselves- but with a little work and a lot of love, they can make it through.

The characters:

I'm thinking Jane and Bernardo might not be mains, partly because of the size of the cast but also because they'd rarely be around. Daniel and Jennifer might get kicked too so I can focus more on the sibling dynamic and not get obsessed with Abby's friends. I dunno. Opinions? 
 * Abigail Acosta - The 15 year-old Acosta daughter. She is intent on being popular, though her siblings often get into the way. She isn't the brightest bulb in the box but is in no way stupid, and can usually be trusted to solve a problem.
 * Adrian Acosta - The 17 year-old Acosta son. He has an ongoing rivalry with his younger sister Abigail, but deep-down the two care about each other. He is the smartest Acosta and has never missed a day of school, and has always gotten at least an A-.
 * Alexander Acosta - The 12 year-old Acosta son, and Alexandra's twin brother. He loves video games and does very little of anything else, unless his parents demand otherwise. He's had a history of being bullied, which has resulted in him being extremely sensitive.
 * Alexandra Acosta - The 12 year-old Acosta daughter, and Alexander's twin sister. She is mischevious and loves to prank her siblings, but has a soft spot for her younger siblings. She is fifteen minutes older than Alexander.
 * Armando, Arturo, and Aurora Acosta - The triplets. They're 3.
 * Jennifer Burch - Abigail's best friend. She is goofy and not very smart, but there isn't a better best friend.
 * Daniel Jakobs - Abigail's other friend. He is a no-nonsense kind of guy, and takes everything more seriously than its meant. He also has a small crush on Abigail.
 * Jane Acosta - The Acosta mother. She is a traveling nurse and sometimes spends weeks in another state.
 * Bernardo Acosta - The Acosta father. He is a businessman and travels around the country for meetings.
