Don’t ever say Conan O’Brien doesn’t know how to have a Super Fun Night, because he does, just ask CBS. He’s executive producing a new sitcom starring the super talented — and super fun — Rebel Wilson.
Conan O’Brien — executive producer of Super Fun Night. It has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it?
It should, it’s the late night host’s new project with CBS.
The former NBC late night host — turned TBS late night host — is teaming with CBS for a brand new show that takes a closer look at nerdy ladies.
That’s a whole lot of letters we just spewed out.
According to The Wrap, the half-hour, multi-camera sitcom will be written by Bridesmaids actress Rebel Wilson, who will also star in and co-executive produce the pilot.
The official logline reads: “A half-hour multi-cam comedy following three nerdy female friends on their ‘funcomfortable’ quest to have SUPER FUN every Friday night.”
Rebel Wilson, an Aussie actress, is joining another Bridesmaids star in the CBS network ranks — Mike & Molly star, Melissa McCarthy.
Melissa McCarthy, an Emmy-winning actress, just received an Oscar nomination for Bridesmaids, the movie that also joined Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph together on the big screen.
As for Super Fun Night, Conan O’Brien will share the executive producing duties with his TBS producer Jeff Ross and David Kissinger.
O’Brien’s company Conaco and Warner Bros. Television will produce the show.
