NBC Developing ‘Reality Bites’ Sitcom with Ben Stiller
NBC, in yet another surprising turn, has added an adaptation of the 90’s cult classic comedy Reality Bites to their development slate.
Interestingly, the adaptation will still take place in the early 90’s before the Internet, which we’re absolutely sure will be the source of so many jokes that will eventually be turned into .gifs if this show ever sees the light of TV screens.
In a world full of trailers that spoil all the details of the movie, shows the best, funniest, most action packed moments, and basically make it so you don’t really have to see the movie comes the trailer for The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Ben Stiller’s latest work as a director.
We don’t have much of an idea of what it’s about, what will happen in the movie, or even if it lives up to its adventure-comedy-drama genre category on IMDB, but, from the trailer, we think it’s going to be grand, funny, and something we want to definitely see come Christmas time.
Watch the trailer for The Secret Life of Walter Mitty on Apple Trailers now.

This is definitely a great move on Comedy Central’s part with the ever burgeoning world of comedy on TV with IFC, FXx, TBS, and more.
