Comedy Central USA has commissioned the comedy series Review With Myles Barlow from ABC Commercial, the commercial arm of Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). The series will be re-named Review With Forrest MacNeil and is scheduled to air early next year. It will be written and executive-produced by Charlie Siskel and Andrew Daly, and will star Daly as the title character.
Review With Myles Barlow is an original multi-award winning half-hour comedy that features one man reviewing all facets of life – experiences, emotions, deepest, darkest desires – to rate them out of five stars.
Katherine McMillan, Sales Manager for Worldwide Format Sales, ABC Commercial, said: “This will be a fantastic version that will do full justice to the humour of the original. I am sure this is the first of many international versions of this successful comedy.”
