The as-yet-untitled single-camera comedy, which was created by Jordan Peele (Key & Peele) and John Carcieri (Vice Principals), follows Morgan’s character, Tracy, as he returns home after 15 years in prison.
TBS has given a straight-to-series order to a comedy starring former 30 Rock and Saturday Night Live star Tracy Morgan, the cable network announced Monday.
Morgan, Peele and Carcieri will executive-produce alongside Eric and Kim Tannenbaum (Two and a Half Men) and Joel Zadak (Key & Peele); Studio T will produce.
“TBS is becoming a home for the most creative and diverse comedy creators in the business, and Tracy and Jordan are a perfect fit for this network.”
