TVGuide says that NBC just gave a pilot order to a new Will Ferrel comedy, Bad Judge, starring actress Kate Walsh.
Bad Judge is about a “hard-living, sexually unapologetic woman (…) who balances her life on the edge with being a judge in the Criminal Court System.”
The Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice alumna is set to play the leading role.
Kate Walsh will also executive produce, alongside Will Ferrel, Anne Heche, Adam McKay, Jill Messick and Chad Kultgen, who will also write the script.
