Summary

NBC ordered two multi-cam sitcom pilots from veteran writers.
Katey Sagal and Jane Lynch are set to star in one pilot.
Jamie Lee Curtis is executive producing 'Newlyweds'.

NBC has bolstered its comedy slate by ordering two new multi-camera sitcom pilots, signaling a renewed interest in traditional broadcast formats. The first project features veteran actors Katey Sagal and Jane Lynch. The second, titled 'Newlyweds,' is executive produced by Jamie Lee Curtis.

These two pilots are being eyed as potential companions to Reba McEntire's existing NBC sitcom, 'Happy's Place.' This development contributes to NBC's pilot season success, with a total of eight orders consisting of five dramas and three comedies.

'Newlyweds' is described as a later-in-life romance about a free-spirited woman and a reserved professor who marry impulsively. The project was previously set up at Netflix with Curtis attached to star. The other sitcom, loosely inspired by real-life best friends and therapists, centers on two women who are opposites but work well together.
