Rosie O'Donnell Has New Show On Logo

Rosie O'Donnell is dipping a toe back into comedic television with Logo.
The gay-themed cable channel from MTV Networks has picked up six half-hour episodes of sketch comedy showcase "The Big Gay Show," to be executive produced by O'Donnell and Dan MacDonald and Joe De Hierro of Oh Really Prods.
"Rosie O'Donnell's comedic precision and unique bond with the LGBT audience will provide an exceptional artistic foundation for a cast of fresh and inventive performers," said Brian Graden, president of entertainment at MTV Networks Music Group and president of Logo.
Added O'Donnell: "Dan and Joe came to me with a visionary idea for a show that has not been done before. I'm excited to be part of something new, fresh and hilariously creative."
The cast includes Erica Ash, Dion Flynn, Julie Goldman, Stephen Guarino, Johnny McGovern, Kate McKinnon, Nicol Paone and Michael Serrato. "Big Gay Show" will premiere next year.
Jim Biederman ("Kids in the Hall") also will produce. Amanda Bearse ("Mad TV") will direct.
