He stars in the half-hour coemdy about his life as a comedian and divorced father of two.  Through sketches and stand-up clips, he acts opposite actors playing his family members and friends.<\/p>\n<p>In the pilot, he appears in two sketches&#8211;one features things going terribly awry as he chaperones a field trip for his kids, while the other chronicles a terrible date.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s a unified stream of conciousness,&#8221; said the comedian. &#8220;It all comes from me being a 41-year-old divorced comic trying to raise children, meet people and have sex.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A conclusive decision on the pilot will be made within ten days.
