BET+ orders Lena Waithe-produced Birth of Cool Compton high school dramedy

The Hollywood Reporter

Birth of Cool, from creators Juel Taylor and Tony Rettenmaier, "centers around Crispus Attucks High, a predominantly Black school in Los Angeles' Compton neighborhood, and follows the misadventures of both the school's students and teachers as they navigate a year that is both hilarious and sobering." This is Waithe's third series for BET.
