Jessica Alba Producing a Twitter Inspired Sitcom for CBS
After the success of Ashton Kutcher's Twitter-inspired sitcom $#*! My Dad Says, Jessica Alba is doing the same!
Alba is now set to produce a sitcom for CBS called Mother of All Something that is based on Twitter comedian Kelly Oxford. The show will be based on Oxford's life as a mother of three, but will not star in the pilot herself.
The stay-at-home mom from Canada captured everyone's attention after her 140-character tweets gained her more than 67,000 followers! Some examples of her hilarious updates are: "If you hear a kid say he's afraid of clowns or loud movies, he's probably not from Darfur..." and "Get into the Christmas spirit by remembering how cool Joseph was about an invisible guy impregnating his lady Mary."

Oxford explained the sitcom by saying, "There is a huge difference between a Twitter concept being sold and a writer who Tweets selling a pilot. At least, I thought there was? But I just wanted to let you guys know CBS didn't 'buy' my Twitter."
