ABC is moving forward with Rebel Wilson.
The network has ordered the Pitch Perfect star's Super Fun Night to series. The comedy, which was rolled from CBS last year, centers on junior attorney Kimmie Boubier (Wilson) and her two best friends Helen-Alice (Liza Lapira) and Marika (Lauren Ash), who have had a standing date every Friday night for the last 13 years. They even have a motto for what they call “Friday Night Fun Night”: “Always together! Always Inside!”
However, Kimmie’s recent promotion throws a monkey wrench into the tradition. Not only is she now working with her idol, “Lady Lawyer of the Year” Felicity Vanderstone (Kelen Coleman), but she meets a dashingly handsome British attorney, Richard Lovell (Kevin Bishop), who invites her to his party at a trendy club. Determined to spend time with Richard and heed Felicity’s advice to network, Kimmie sets out to convince her friends to take Super Fun Night on the road.
The single-camera effort, from Warner Bros. Television and Conan O'Brien's Conaco Productions, counts Wilson, O'Brien, David Kissinger, Jeff Ross and director John Riggii as executive producers.
