Comedian and former Air America personality Marc Maron has shot a pilot presentation with Ed Asner playing his father.
Maron said on his "WTF" podcast Monday that the pilot reflects his own life: He plays a man with cats who records a podcast in his garage in which he interviews comedy stars and dissects his own life. His podcast guest in the pilot presentation is "The Hangover" star Ken Jeong, Maron said.
Wouldn't you know it: Jeong has also appeared on the "WTF" podcast.
Asner's agent, Michael Greene, told TheWrap the pilot presentation shot last week over two days.
Maron said he shot the show for Fox TV Studios with production company Apostle (headed by Denis Leary and Jim Serpico), and that the show is executive produced by Olivia Wingate and Serpico.
