Former Fat Girl - Single-Cam Comedy from J.J. Philbin and Jason Katims gets Pilot Production commitment at NBC

5 Sept 2013

Share on Reddit
On the heels of the success last season of their comedy project About A Boy, which went to series at NBC, Jason Katims and his True Jack Prods. are back in half-hour development with another high-profile project at NBC. The network has handed a pilot production commitment to Former Fat Girl, from Universal TV where True Jack is based. Written by J.J. Philbin (New Girl), the single-camera comedy is loosely inspired by 10 Lessons from a Former Fat Girl, a nonfiction book by former Biggest Loser contestant Amy Parham, which True Jack optioned earlier this year. It is a comedic “adult coming-of-age” story of a formerly obese thirtysomething woman who has just recently shed the weight and is now experiencing life and relationships from her very unique perspective. Philbin is executive producing with True Jack’s Katims and Michelle Lee.

    Isn't this just the female version of Fatrick which got a Pilot Production commitment a few weeks ago at FOX?

    The names involved give me some hope on the project, but the premise in itself? Meh...
