FOX has given a blind seven-episode series commitment to a new multi-camera comedy from comedian Bernie Mac (“The Bernie Mac Show”) and “The Drew Carey Show” creator Bruce Helford. The project, which is set up at Helford’s Warner Bros. Television-based Mohawk banner, centers on a larger-than-life and opinionated man (Mac), who, after a divorce, finds himself living with and working for his introverted twentysomething son. Sitcom veteran Andy Ackerman is already on board to direct the half-hour, production of which is obviously contingent on the end of the WGA strike. Helford and Deborah Oppenheimer, who inked a new two-year overall deal with the studio back in June, will then executive produce alongside Ackerman with Mac and his manager Steven Greener both receiving producer credits.
