Campaigning for the Funny

I guess Sarah Michelle Gellar did not want to play a funny mom on TV quite just yet, after all.

SMG is keen on comedy, though, and she is teaming up with a true master for it: Robin Williams.

The pair is set to headline David E. Kelley’s new project, a pilot for CBS titled Crazy Ones, about a father-and-daughter team that runs an advertising agency together.

Gellar’s character is described as intense and driven, and I am going to guess she’s going to play the straight man to Williams’ outlandishness.

This could work. I see this working. Especially if Kelley writes a bunch of great Ally McBeal-ish supporting characters.
