The project hails from 20th Century Fox Television and will be executive produced by "This Is Us" creator Dan Fogelman.

The series is the latest collaboration between Martin and Short, whose friendship began 35 years ago. The duo are recently went on a comedy tour together, called "Now You See Them, Soon You Won't Tour".

Gomez will also serve as executive producer alongside Martin, Hoffman, Short, Fogelman and Jess Rosenthal.
