TBS orders Vince Vauhn's SULLIVAN AND SON comedy pilot

TV Vince Vaughn by

Vince Vaughn is about to go to the land of Tyler Perry and Conan O'Brien. THR reports that TBS has ordered a comedy pilot of Sullivan and Son, a half-hour project starring comedian Steve Byrne. Filming is expected to begin later this year on the show that follows the "legendary Pittsburgh bar, which serves as the unofficial "town hall" of the working-class neighborhood."

Here is a description of the show:

"Steve Sullivan (Byrne) is the son of the current bar owner and the grandson of its founder who leaves his successful corporate attorney gig in New York to take over Sullivan & Son. The series chronicles his attempt to find a more rewarding life behind the bar."

The show is to be scripted by Byrne, and has Rob Long (Cheers) as showrunner. Vaughn and Peter Billingsley join Long as executive producers on the show. This should be a funny new show, I like the concept.
