Fox picks up Grammer, Heaton comedy

patricia heaton; kelsey grammerOoooh. I'm so on the fence about this one. Fox has given a 13-episode order to a comedy called Action News, starring Kelsey Grammer and Patricia Heaton. It's about an old anchoring duo who reunite on local news in some unknown city. It's being shot as a multi-camera show, which most likely means an audience and/or a laugh track (arrrgh!). Fox, ABC, and CBS all bid on it. It's planned for next fall.

On one hand, I tend to enjoy shows that are set in newsrooms because of the never-ending supply of comedic situations. On the other hand, dear Patricia Heaton drives me batty! I wish I could say it was just her character on Raymond that I didn't like, but I also have to mute the television when her grocery store ads come on. Me aside, this will probably grab some decent ratings... at least initially. Heaton and Grammer are big names in the sitcom world and there are probably a lot of Americans who will be happy to see both of them back.
