Comedy Central has given a pilot order to cop comedy “Duty,” which will be executive-produced by ABC’s “Happy Endings” creator David Caspe and Jamie Tarses.
The comedy project stars “Ugly Americans” and “The Awesomes” voice actor Mike O’Gorman as Kyle, a former football star who loses everything and is forced to start anew by moving back to his hometown and taking a job on the local police force opposite his childhood best friend Lonnie (Gil Ozeri, who was also a writer on “Happy Endings” and more recently, Fox’s “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”).
