Family comedy lures Biggs to small screen (Reuters)

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - "American Pie" star Jason Biggs is in negotiations to star in a TV series from "Arrested Development" creator Mitch Hurwitz.

CBS has given a pilot commitment to the untitled single-camera comedy, which revolves around a family that "loves too much."

Hurwitz and "Arrested" scribe James Vallely are co-writing the script about adult siblings and their parents, who are over-involved in one another's lives.

Hurwitz, whose animated comedy "Sit Down, Shut Up" is slated for a midseason launch on Fox, created and executive produced the CBS comedy "The Ellen Show" before conceiving the Emmy-winning Fox comedy "Arrested," which revolved around the dysfunctional Bluth clan.

Biggs will next be seen in the feature comedy "My Best Friend's Girl," with Kate Hudson and Dane Cook.
