BBC Orders Comedy ‘Motherland’ Co-Written by Sharon Horgan to Series

Sharon Horgan has quietly built a trans-atlantic comedy empire.

On top of having a couple of seasons of the much lauded Catastrophe under her belt with Rob Delaney and overseeing the new HBO series Divorce, Sharon Horgan has co-written a brand new show with Graham Linehan, Helen Linehan and Holly Walsh called Motherland that just a series order from the BBC.

It’ll be a more unfiltered take, probably a la Catastrophe, on motherhood and it probably won’t be too long before the show finds its way stateside.
