Two social media memes get drafted for mainstream TV shows.The first "Texts from Last Night" and now, "Shit My Dad Says" which is poised to win funniest in OpenWebAwards. Both are undeniably ROFL action. Here is the scoop from Mashable
The author of the account, Justin Halpern, simply tweets the quips and funny off-the-cuffs from his live-in 73-year-old dad. The results are hysterical enough to have already landed him a book deal, and now with a CBS option deal the concept will be finding its way to the other small screen, the television
The creators of Will & Grace, David Kohan and Max Mutchnick, are already on board to executive produce the show, planned as a family comedy. Halpern will co-write the script with Patrick Schumacke
The show will join “Texts from Last Night” as the second internet meme to get picked up by a broadcast network this season, both intended as half-hour series.
