In what is believed to be the
biggest commitment for a comedy project so
far this development season, Marry Me , a
single-camera half-hour from Happy Endings
creator David Caspe, just landed at NBC . The
Sony Pictures TV project — which has Seth
Gordon, who exited Horrible Bosses 2 today,
attached to direct and executive produce
and Jamie Tarses to executive produce — sparked a bidding war when it was
taken out two weeks ago. It ultimately commanded a pilot production
commitment in a deal which I hear also includes a full license fee and series
penalty. Said to be in the vein of Mad About You, Marry Me
centers on a young couple who get engaged, something they quickly realize is
harder than it looks. Caspe, who is writing and exec producing, as well as
Gordon and Tarses, are all under overall deals at Sony TV.
