Well, as quickly as NBC was to break my heart, it shows up on my doorstep with flowers, chocolates, and a singing telegram.
Damn you, NBC.
Just a couple weeks after the announcement that NBC would be shelving Community, it was just announced today that Sarah Silverman will be creating a pilot for the peacock network.
This is an extremely smart move for NBC. Silverman has a decent following, many who are still healing their wounds after The Sarah Silverman Program was canceled on Comedy Central, and there is no doubt this show will definitely add some spice to the line up.
Plus, any show based loosely on the life of Sarah Silverman may in fact have the possibility to be just a tiny bit hilarious. Maybe.
And, on top of everything else, Silverman is going to be the executive producer alongside Ron Howard, Brian Grazer, and Francie Calfo.
When I think of Ron Howard and television, I think Arrested Development. Then, I think of Tobias Funke and I laugh a little. Then, I watch a bunch of clips on Hulu. Then, I look at the clock and realize three hours of gone by. Then, I hate myself.
NBC, you've done this to me before. My friends all tell me I don't need you anymore, but I tell them they don't understand. But maybe they're right, and you will disappoint me again... or maybe, just maybe, it'll work out this time. We can get that house on the suburbs we were always talking about, remember?
In all seriousness, I am extremely excited for this project, and will eagerly await news of when it will air. WELCOME BACK SARAH!
