Will Ferrell, Adam McKay, and Chris Henchy are some of the masterminds behind the viral video comedy website Funny or Die. Now they're joining forces for a new Comedy Central sitcom, which the network is calling a "groundbreaking new series."
The currently untitled sitcom stars Jon Heder ("Napoleon Dynamite") as an out of work IT specialist who returns to his small town and moves back in with his parents and younger brother.
Ferrell, McKay, and Hency will write the sitcom and their production company, Gary Sanchez Productions, will produce.
Comedy Central has ordered an initial run of 10 episodes of the series. It's expected to premiere sometime in 2010.
