TBS Rushing The Frat House
December 9th, 2008 | 2 Comments | Email | Share | TweetTBS has ordered a pilot for a tentatively titled half-hour late-night project Frat House, from Bunim-Murray that is in the vein of the 2003 Will Ferrell comedy Old School. The project follows three comedian-hosts – Bret Ernst, Theo Von and Bert Kreischer – as they lead a band of guys, each at a crossroads, who long for the simpler, raucous days of life in a frat house.
The news comes on the heels of TBS’ ordering a pilot for another late-night project, The TBS Comedy Roadshow, a contemporary take on vaudeville hosted by Harland Williams.
Frat House comes from production company Bunin-Murray, whose credits include MTV’s The Real World and E!’s Keeping Up With the Kardashians.
I’m a huge fan though of the ‘Old School’ movie. This should make for some interesting watching. Hopefully some episodes can go beyond the infamous stereotypes of Greek life.
We told our Greek members about this show. There is some excitement bubbling. Please let us know when it goes live.
