MTV has ordered two new comedy pilots, as well as greenlighting a second season of "Kesha: My Crazy Beautiful Life," MTV president of programming Suzanne Daniels said Friday at the Television Critics Association press tour in Beverly Hills.
The first new comedy pilot, "Faking It," comes from Carter Covington ("10 Things I Hate About You") and follows two best friends who'll do anything to be popular in high school, including pretending to be something they're not.
