Peter Murrieta

Murrieta’s yet-untitled comedy series is a multi-generational family show based on his own family – juxtaposing the immigrant generation, the assimilated generation and the American-born one.

It’s a topic Murrieta first addressed in his first-ever series as a creator, the WB’s Greetings From Tucson.

Murrieta served as the showrunner on the first three seasons of Disney Channel’s Wizards of Waverly Place, helping  the family comedy achieve ratings success and land the network it’s first best series Emmy Award.
