HBO has officially granted a straight-to-series order to the upcoming Steve Carell-led college comedy, which hails from veteran TV producers Bill Lawrence (Ted Lasso) and Matt Tarses (Scrubs).
“The untitled show is a single-camera comedy set on a college campus, centering on an author’s complicated relationship with his daughter,” reads the logline.
This marks Carell’s latest major TV project after recently signing on to star opposite Tina Fey in the Netflix series The Four Seasons. Following his iconic performance as Michael Scott in The Office, Carell was able to show off his skills in the drama genre, thanks to his appearances on The Morning Show and The Patient. Prior to his upcoming HBO comedy, he previously headlined Netflix’s short-lived workplace comedy Space Force.
