Amy Sedaris is creating and will write and star
in a new sitcom co-produced by 20th Century Fox TV. Paul Dinello, her
Strangers With Candy co-creator, is also involved. The show is being co-produced by David Letterman's Worldwide Pants.
It's sad that the third co-creator of
Strangers With Candy couldn't be involved with this production, but I think Stephen Colbert is a little busy right now with that television show of his.
Strangers With Candy itself was considerably risqué and I doubt whatever she's developing will be suitable for network television. Perhaps she'll go back to Comedy Central? Hopefully, it won't land on Fox where anything of quality is canceled prematurely.
I have been lucky enough to see Amy Sedaris live on two occasions (as well as watching many episodes of
Strangers With Candy) and think she has buckets of talent. Whatever she's developing, I'm confident will be better than 95% of the crap on television.

Hardcore Stephen Colbert fans might take one look at this list and scoff. To them I say, "Hey, girls who live on the
Colboards, chill out." This list is meant for the casual fan of
The Colbert Report, who loves the show and, at most, knows Colbert's history through
The Daily Show and maybe a little
Strangers with Candy.
As someone who has been a fan of Colbert for about eight years, I'm here to educate, here to spread the good Word. It is the duty of a good fan -- especially one with too much time on her hands -- to change the minds of people that see Colbert just as the TV blowhard who happens to share his name.

Paul Dinello, one of the co-creators of one of the greatest TV shows of all time, Strangers with Candy, and the man who played gay art teacher Geoffry Jellineck on the series, is set to direct the new FOX comedy pilot Me & Lee?
The pilot is called Me & Lee?, just to clarify. I didn't want you readers to think I was asking you whether or not Dinello is directing the pilot.
