The pilot focuses on a family moving into their dream home under one condition: the older actress who used to own the place can reside there with them until she dies. Burnett will play the actress, and Michael Saltzman, whose credits include Mad Men, Murphy Brown, and Wings, will write the script.

CelebrityElizabeth Durand StreisandWill Arnett Fell Off the Wagon While Shooting 'Flaked,' but Is Sober Once Again
Sometimes art imitates life and sometimes it goes the other way around — just ask Will Arnett, the star and co-creator of Flaked, a show about a 40-something man named Chip who is struggling with sobriety, a character that is more than loosely based on the star’s real life. The idea for the series came to Arnett in the summer of 2012, when he was in a “tricky place” in his life. Personally, his nine-year marriage to Amy Poehler (which is about a century by Hollywood standards) was coming to an end, as was his sitcom Up All Night.

TVKen Tucker‘The Grinder’ Review: Rob Lowe, Fred Savage And Lots of Lawyerly Laughs
The latter-day career of Rob Lowe has been defined by the role he took in Amy Poehler’s Parks and Recreation. As Chris Traeger, the assiduously upbeat auditor, Lowe was able to move ever-further away from his Brat Pack past, and infuse his best post-Brat role — Sam Seaborn on The West Wing — with the kind of humor that made him something this skilled but impeccably controlled actor hadn’t brought to full bloom before: Lovability. Now, as Dean Sanderson, Jr. in the season’s funniest fall pilot The Grinder, Lowe is able to broaden out his comedy. If 30 Rock had only been a show about Jenna Maroney, she would have been too, too much, but she was great as a contrast to Liz Lemon.
