Despite what has been a rather lackluster track record with original comedies, Showtime is set to try try again. The premium network has
ordered pilots for three new shows,
Manchild, Californication, and
Insatiable. Darren Starr (
Sex and the City, Melrose Place, 90210) will team up with Robb and Mark Cullen (
Lucky, Heist) to adapt the BBC comedy
Manchild. It is the story of four 40-something men trying to navigate through various mid-life crises. Think,
Sex and the City plus ten years and testicles. The original starred Buffy alum Anthony Stewart Head.
From Tom Kapinos (
Dawson's Creek),
Californication, revolves around a single father trying to raise his child while dealing with sex and drug addictions. And finally,
Insatiable tells the story of a small town where everyone has an addiction. It will be headed up by Linda Wallem (
The Comeback, Jake In Progress).
