Yes, supporting things like the fight against cancer can sometimes get you a chance to be roasted by Roastmaster General Jeff Ross.

The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society has a campaign called Daring Greatly raising money for cancer research, advocacy, and patient services and are putting up auctions for a special individual roast from Jeff Ross, lunch with Ken Jeong, tickets to see Jerry Seinfeld and meet him at an upcoming Las Vegas show, and more.

You can make your bid and support here, but do so soon as there are only 10 days left on the auctions.

As far as the multi-cam sitcom pilots that have been ordered this pilot season, Dr. Ken ordered by ABC might be one of the most intriguing ones.

While the premise of a doctor trying to balance work and family seems like pretty safe territory for a sitcom, the team of Ken Jeong, Mike O’Connell, Jared Stern, and Mike Sikowitz might be cooking up something that’s more high concept and out there than you might initially think.

Jeong was a practicing doctor before he got into stand-up and went by a moniker that serves the title of this show, Dr. Ken. Together O’Connell and Jeong made this music video for What’s It Gonna Be before Ken made a name for himself in The Hangover franchise and Community. Also, O’Connell is one hell of a comedian himself as you can see in him performing his song “Little Asian Babies” on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

Of course, we don’t know what exactly is being written and shot behind close stage doors here, but we suspect that it won’t be your typical multi-cam.

After getting rid of Nikki & Sara Live and Zach Stone Is Gonna Be Famous, MTV is still trying to figure their angle for comedy. Their latest pilot is centered on Ken Jeong playing himself as a role model in a coming-of-age comedy.

It’s called, and perhaps you guessed it, Ken Jeong Made Me Do It. We’re curious to see if this will touch on Jeong once being a full fledged medical doctor.
