Married "The Daily Show With Jon Stewart" correspondents Jason Jones and Samantha Bee are prepping a jump into the sitcom world.
Jones and Bee have signed on to co-create and co-write a script for themselves at CBS. The couple would also star in the as-yet-untitled comedy, which will revolve around the behind-the-scenes world of a celebrity chef (played by Jones) and the two women who run his cooking empire (one of whom will be played by Bee).
As part of the deal, they've sealed separate talent holding pacts with CBS and sister studio CBS Paramount Network TV. They're penning their project under the development component of their deals.
