Kellie Pickler Gets Her Own Sitcom Show On Fox


Leave it to Fox to milk American Idol for all it’s go. Kellie Picker is going to play a naive small-town Southern girl (a far stretch from reality) in a half hour comedy. I can’t wait until they write in a scene where she has to eat CAALLAAMMAAARRIII and SSAALLLMMMOOONNN. Oh and wait.. we can’t for get minx. Sigh - I have a feeling any one of us could come up with their pilot.

Fox is developing a half-hour comedy revolving around “American Idol” finalist Kellie Pickler, says Variety. Pickler will play a naive small-town Southern girl — a character based on herself — who discovers that her biological father is the state’s well-respected governor. His presidential dreams are put in jeopardy, but the two form a father-daughter relationship that winds up helping his standing in the polls.
Twentieth Century Fox TV is behind the project, along with Watson Pond and “Idol” producer 19 Entertainment. Watson Pond’s Brad Johnson and 19’s Simon Fuller and Malcolm Young will executive produce. Chris Peterson and Bryan Moore (”That ’70s Show”) will write and create the project, which has landed a script order. (source)

Okay, I'm going to go out on a limb and admit that I really adored Kellie on American Idol. I think I might actually like to hear her sing, but act? No.

I loved her when she guest hosted on the View. She seems genuine....genuinely dim of course but she's still sweet.

Uh who? Don't watch American Idol so she's a new one on me....

I saw that episode too and I was also impressed with her. She really is adorable. I don't see a sitcom working out, but I wish her luck regardless. It's nice to have a fresh face and someone with some morals in an industry saturated with the likes of Paris, Nicole, Lindsay etc.

I didn't see her do the View (don't watch it, so no surprise) but I'm glad (altho surprised) that she did well. Maybe she'll just make something of herself.

I liked her once she stopped acting like the dumb blonde from the south, so I don't know if I'll like this show. Seems like there are some good people behind it though, who have confidence in her, so who knows.

Here's when she guest hosted on the View: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpqOU8o_Df8 (and the other parts are after it)

And TV's overall IQ drops by another few points...

I just watched all the segments of her on the view, and I have to say she is funny as hell! She really does seem kind of ditzy, but I think I like her...just not her new single...
