Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi To Partner On NBC Sitcom; DeGeneres's Series To Star di Rossi

It looks like spouses Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi are eyeing another partnership.

The couple recently celebrated their third wedding anniversary, but this power couple will soon be sharing more than eternal love.

NBC has picked up DeGeneres's comedy series that will star her wife, de Rossi.

The untitled project follows dueling sisters, and though not many more details have been revealed, the funny blondes have never let us down before.

For di Rossi fans, let's just hope it doesn't delay with the long-awaited "Arrested Development" movie!

I haven't had a TV in years, and spend little time on the Internet. It amazes me that people spend time on this stuff. Why do you do it?

Strange..you're on the internet commenting about an upcoming tv show and yet you don't watch tv and spend little time on the internet..why are you here?

I don't know, how about obscurity? That would be nice. She could do that stupid little "white girl can't dance" routine right into the sunset.

Portia's terrific, she's a great comic actress

[Kerry Bloomer]

07:21 PM on 09/11/2011

Cool, will be like Lucy & Desi. Always loved Portia as Nell on Ally McBeal. Can't wait to watch

[wanglog]

portia was tremendous on, "arrested development". and clearly she's absolutely stunning! which is why i don't understand why she'd be with ellen. aside from her very average looks, ellen (for me at least) is about as funny as a truckload of dead babies.

[watch out world]

06:44 PM on 09/11/2011

maybe Ellen is gifted in the tongue department?!

[Unitynow8]

08:01 PM on 09/11/2011

Clearly I've never seen her stand up on HBO

of course there is the other option, you actually have no sense of humor.

[abbienormal]

07:39 AM on 09/12/2011

Agreed. Her standup is great.

[wanglog]

08:05 AM on 09/12/2011

that must be it. i claimed portia was tremendous on, "arrested developmen­t" for her dramatic intensity and dedication to the seriousnes­s of the entire project!

Good luck to them they seem happy

It seems strange that so many actors are still in the closet

[MJJBunny]

12:03 PM on 09/11/2011

Personally, I'd love for them to have or adopt a child.

[John Blutarsky]

10:57 AM on 09/11/2011

what's next for them? medicare and social security, unless the dems screw it up in the next two years

[anastasiabeaverhousen]

08:04 PM on 09/11/2011

That is possibly thedumbest non sequitur I've read today.

[abbienormal]

07:39 AM on 09/12/2011

The day is young.

Ellen is a sweetheart but Portia is just stunning. Hope they have a long, happy life together.

[511callie]

would this be news if they weren't Gay? I think Not. I can't wait for the day to come when it's Not a big deal..Yawn..NEXT.
