Having proved that he can create not only a successful animated show, but a live action movie as well, Seth MacFarlane is now going to try his hand at a live action sitcom.
FOX has ordered a pilot for a live action, one camera sitcom that will air no matter what. If it’s successful, it could lead to a full series. MacFarlane will team up with fellow writers Alex Sulkin and Wellesley Wild who co-wrote the hit movie TED with him.
The premise of the show involves two thirty-something guys whose successful and peaceful lives turns disastrous when their fathers move in with them. Though it sounds boring and unimaginative, just remember that the creator is the same guy who took a regular animated Rhode Island family and turned them into nationwide celebrities!
Just in case this new show doesn’t work out, MacFarlane is also busy working on rebooting Carl Sagan’s documentary COSMOS and, most excitingly, he is planning to reinvent the classic ’60s cartoon THE FLINTSTONES!
