Also, the new Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter) is attached to produce.

Comedian Max Silvestri has just sold NBC its latest single camera project, giving us a little more encouragement for their comedy development slate outside of Seeso. Relative Success, which Max wrote, will center on the blurring of personal and professional lines between brothers that just happen to be a successful author and book editor.

We loved Max’s work on the web series Gabe & Max Need Help and have no doubt that this will be very promising

NBC Cancelled Female Driven 1960s Space Race Comedy “Mission Control” Before Premiere

(via The Hollywood Reporter)

Though there seems to be a little bit of a trend of space themed comedies these days with Paul Feig‘s Other Space for Yahoo, Cracked‘s Starship Icarus, NBC has jumped off any sort of potential bandwagon that there would be by canceling Mission Control from Gary Sanchez Productions ahead of its premiere.

Krysten Ritter was set to star, but locking down the rest of the cast apparently proved too difficult for NBC to want to move forward with the show.

It’s unfortunate as a workplace comedy set at NASA’s Mission Control in the 60s with Ritter as the star definitely sounded pretty great to us. Maybe it’ll get revived somewhere else as that is definitely a trend in TV these days.

NBC Orders 3 Female Led Comedies ‘One Big Happy,’ ‘Mission Control,’ ‘Bad Judge’

Now that space is cleared out after so many shows got the chop this week, NBC has ordered 3 comedy series, all led by women. Liz Meriwether’s comedy One Big Happy focused on a lesbian starting a family, Gary Sanchez Productions’ 60’s space program workplace comedy Mission Control starring Krysten Ritter, and Bad Judge starring Kate Walsh as an edgy judge all got series orders yesterday. 

We do miss Community dearly, but we are excited to see what comes from this new crop.

Krysten Ritter Joining NBC Comedy Pilot ‘Mission Control’ from Will Ferrell

On both counts of Will Ferrell having an astronaut comedy pilot at NBC and Krysten Ritter joining the case, we’re hoping to see what will come of this as a series, especially since it has an element of Anchorman set in the arena of a space program.
