Fox Orders Tina Fey College Comedy to Series

Fox has given a series commitment to a new comedy from 30 Rock' s Tina Fey, Robert Carlock and Matt Hubbard, Deadline reports.

The project will be set at a women's college that begins accepting men for the first time in its history.

Carlock, who served as a producer for 30 Rock's entire run, will write and executive-produce along with Fey and David Miner (Brooklyn Nine-Nine). Fey, however, will not star in the comedy.

The project sparked a heated bidding war between multiple networks, which is how the comedy received a rare series commitment before a pilot was produced. NBC made a similar move last year with The Michael J. Fox Show, which premieres this fall.

This is the second project Fey and Carlock have sold this week. On Wednesday, NBC bought a workplace comedy from Fey and Carlock about a woman finds a new home and a new family on Fire Island as she attempts to reconnect with her father.
