So ... we now have My Name is Earl, The Office, Kath and Kim, Parks and 
Recreation,  30 Rock and Untitled Debra Messing Recession sitcom 
competing for what is conceivably an hour's worth of sitcom timeslots 
come fall. Two hours if they're lucky and there could easily be 
time-sharing of slots ala the SNL Thursday Update/Kath & Kim/P&R 
merry-go-round.

Along with that Seinfeld (produced) Marriage Counseling thing (probably 
an hour)

Also in announced development (and these aren't necessarily the leads 
just the actors I recognize):

"100 QUESTIONS FOR CHARLOTTE PAYNE" (about a young woman navigating life 
with friends in New York) in the cast: no stars. Perhaps they've dug up 
some unused scripts from "Zoey, Duncan, Jack and Jane." Going for it 
however is a pilot directed by James Burrows.

"COMMUNITY" (aka "Underclared 2.0" -- A community college sitcom) in the 
cast: Chevy Chase and Joel McHale

"OFF DUTY" (a buddy cop series) in the cast: Bradley Whitford and 
Weeds/40 Y Old Virgin's Romany Malco

"STATE OF ROMANCE" (a modern day Chicago set "Pride & Prejudice" and 
sadly no Predators or Zombies) in the cast: Mad TV's Bobby Lee

UNTITLED JUSTIN ADLER PROJECT aka Brothers and Sisters as a sitcom with
Henry Winkler, Jill Clayburgh, Leslie Bibb, Michael Rosenbaum and EP 
Mitch Hurwitz (making it Arresting)
