Ellen Degeneres Goes Lesbian For NBC

Elisha Cuthbert

Sixteen years after Ellen Degeneres came out on Ellen another network comedy with a lesbian lead is coming to primetime. 

NBC has given a pilot order to a multi-camera comedy executive produced by DeGeneres. 

The project, titled One Big Happy, is written/exec produced by openly gay comedy scribe Liz Feldman (2 Broke Girls). 

In it, a gay (woman) and straight (man) best friends decide to have a baby together, but things get complicated when the man finds the love of their life. 

Um, I was going to say "Holy Will & Grace" but this sounds a whole lot more interesting and progressive. 

Elisha Cuthbert from the classic show 24 and the awful remake of House of Wax (sorry Elisha I like you but, damn, really?!) is set to star in the pilot.

Can  I get a hey now?!
