Kinda Desperate!

This does not sound good.

Matthew Broderick is headed to network TV to star in NBC comedy pilot Beach Lane which was given the green light today.

Beach Lane stars Matthew as “a celebrity author hired by an irresponsible millionaire heir to run his struggling small-town newspaper in the Hamptons.”

Sounds like a barrel of laughs.

Lorne Michaels of SNL fame is executive producing so maybe it will be good?

We kinda doubt it — he needs to get wife SJPeePee to guest-star!
