A new pilot called Aliens in America
has been picked up by what will soon be known as the CW. The comedy will focus on a shy nerdy
kid living in a small Wisconsin town whose mother invites an exchange student to live with the family. The mother hopes
the new friend will help her son become more popular, but the exchange student turns out to be Muslim. Sounds like
another wacky comedy about cultural differences. Right now there's just not enough information to get me too excited
about this show, but who knows, it could be good. The best news to come from this, however, is that the show is being
described as a possible companion to Everybody Hates Chris, meaning Chris Rock's sitcom may actually make the
transition to the CW after all. Very cool, says I.Aliens are coming, good news for Chris?

Not sure how funny they will be allowed to be with a Muslim exchange student, but it's better than another goofy show about friends or stupid office jobs (The Office not included). Here's hoping the politically correct keep quiet on this one.
