Multi-camera comedy will focus on female nerds
Conan O'Brien
Conan O'Brien and CBS are teaming up for a "Super Fun Night."
The network has ordered a pilot for a multi-camera comedy produced by O'Brien and starring Rebel Wilson (Kristen Wiig's Brit roommate in "Bridesmaids"), according to The Hollywood Reporter. She'll also act as writer and co-executive producer.
"Super Fun Night" centers on a group of female nerds who attempt to turn every Friday night into a "Super Fun Night."
CBS has several other comedy pilots set up, including "Iron Man" director Jon Favreau's "Tweaked" and an untitled comedy from writert-producer Nick Stoller ("The Muppets," "Forgetting Sarah Marshall").
O'Brien's production company Conaco is also developing "Fat Chance" and a Ben Wexler comedy, likely at TBS, home to his late night talk show.
