James Van Der Beek is back in action.
CBS has ordered the comedy pilot "Friends With Better Lives," which stars Van Der Beek, to series.
Van Der Beek most recently starred in the comedy "Don't Trust the B—- in Apt. 23," which was pulled from ABC's schedule in January.
The multi-camera series, which comes from 20th Century Fox Television in association with Kapital Entertainment, revolves around a group of 30-something friends who each think the other has it better. Brooklyn Decker, Rick Donald, Kevin Connolly, Zoe Lister Jones and Majandra Delfino also star.
