Fox is looking to turn National Geographic's
Cesar Millan, aka the Dog Whisperer, into a funny idea for a sitcom. And no, that's not the part they hope is funny.
The network is looking to cast
That 70's Show's Wilmer Valderrama in the potential sitcom's title role, assuming it's called "The Dog Whisperer."
Hung's co-executive producer Emily Kapnek will write the show's pilot.
If this gets to the air and becomes a wild success, just imagine the bar this could set for other reality show stars to get their own half-hour sitcom. Then again, try not to or your skull will cave in.
Hey, Brigitte here with TV Squad Daily. I'll be covering the TV stories I find interesting each day, Monday through Friday, in this video blog.
Today on TV Squad Daily:
- The Sopranos is having a tough time getting a permit to film in a New Jersey town, partially because the mayor's wife is not a fan.
- Real-life dog whisperer Caesar Millan will guest star as himself later this month on Ghost Whisperer.
- Ten years from now, Antonella Barba may be the first person to have a legitimate claim that "American Idol ruined my life." Let's hope not.
