Is the sitcom dead?

Not sure.

But check out all these ghoulish Hollywood types trying to revive the corpse.

We’re particularly routing for the “The TBS Comedy Road Show.” (It’s EP’ed by Page Hurwitz, who last plied her talents on Last Comic Standing.

We love the description:

half-hour series which aims to put a contemporary spin on vaudeville, a genre of a variety entertainment prevalent in the early 20th century

We especially like the fact that (someone) feels that it’s necessary to explain just what vaudeville is! If you gotta explain the cultural phenomenon that your project is based on, why not just leave out the comparison?
