Funny man and former "Office" star Steve Carrell is returning to his roots with a new show on TBS.

The network picked up Carrell and wife Nancy's new police comedy fare titled "Angie Tribeca." The show, which will star former "Parks and Recreation" cast-member Rashida Jones, centers on a group of outlandish Los Angeles detectives. Jones will play Angie Tribeca, a capable cop who's less than pleased when she's assigned a new partner.

Carrell might not be appearing in front of the camera but he is getting a few of his A-List friends to make cameos including Lisa Kudrow, Alfred Molina and Gary Cole.
