Comedy Central has ordered an animated pilot for @DadBoner, based on the popular Twitter feed of fictional Michigan man Karl Weizen and the book it inspired, Power Moves: Livin’ the American Dream, USA Style. The series will be co-written by comedy writers Mike Burns, who writes the Twitter account, and Tim Long. Per Deadline: “On the show, Karl Welzein has developed his own philosophy of life, indulging in dangerously generous helpings of booze, fast food, and American pride. Since his wife kicked him out of the house, Karl has been crashing at his buddy Dave’s and living like a “true bad boy” with “plenty of babes” — in his own mind. Can’t wait for the weekend! (That this comes out).
