From the drudges of Comic-Con announcements.
Jeez, Wyatt Cenac was chosen as the lead? We're going to guess this is going to fail. He didn't stand out on the Daily Show and though Greg Daniels has good track record with shows...Conan doesn't.
People of Earth: From Emmy® winners Conan O’Brien (Conan) and Greg Daniels (The Office, Parks and Recreation) and creator David Jenkins comes People of Earth, a half-hour single-camera comedy series about a support group for alien abductees. People of Earth centers on skeptical journalist Ozzie Graham (Wyatt Cenac – The Daily Show)
who investigates the group to write about its members’ supposed alien
encounters. The more he digs into their oddball claims, however, the
more he realizes a semblance of truth to their stories and possibly even
signs that point to his own alien abduction. The onetime outsider now
finds himself a part of this eclectic group of misfits, all the while
struggling with the idea of knowing that life could exist beyond our
world. The series is executive produced by O’Brien, Daniels, Norm
Hiscock (King of the Hill), Jeff Ross (Conan), David Kissinger (Eagleheart) and Larry Sullivan; Jenkins is co-executive producer. Produced by Conaco LLC in association with Warner Horizon Television, People of Earth is coming this fall to TBS.
