    By NELLIE ANDREEVA | Deadline.com – Wed, Jan 30, 2013 7:40 PM PST

    ABC has given the green light to Middle Age Rage, a single-camera comedy pilot from veteran writer-producer Cheryl Holliday, Steven Spielberg’s Amblin TV and ABC Studios. Written by Holliday, Middle Age Rage reflects Holliday’s personal frustration about how the average middle-age woman is treated in the world today. It chronicles what happens when a middle-aged wife and mother is fed up with feeling invisible and begins to speak up and demand the respect she feels she’s earned. Holliday executive produces with Amblin/DreamWorks TV co-presidents Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey. This marks the third pilot order for Holliday and DreamWorks TV. They also landed two cast-contingent pilot pickups in 2006.  King Of the Hill alumna Holliday’s credits also include DreamWorks TV’s NBC animated series Father Of The Pride as well as CBS’ Mike & Molly and Still Standing.
