‘(500) Days of Summer’ Scribes Land NBC Sitcom

February 19th, 2010 admin

Here’s one summer that just got a little more mileage. Scott Neustadter and Michael Weber, the writers behind the indie romantic comedy hit ‘500 Days of Summer,’ scored a piece of NBC’s primetime schedule. Their single camera comedy concept is called ‘Friends with Benefits,’ which sounds like a ‘Friends’ rehash but with way more schtupping. And since it’s a smart concept by a couple of equally smart writers on NBC, expect it to be replaced by an all new Jay Leno show by the end of the year.
