TBS Goes Back to the 1980s with New College Comedy GLORY DAZE

TBS has given the greenlight to the one-hour comedy series GLORY DAZE, a 1980s-set college comedy starring Kelly Blatz (Aaron Stone), Callard Harris (Sons of Anarchy), Matt Bush (High School), Drew Seeley (Freshman Father), Hartley Sawyer (Killian), Julianna Guill (My Alibi) and Tim Meadows (Saturday Night Live, Mean Girls). TBS has ordered eight episodes of the series, which was created by Walt Becker (Wild Hogs) and Michael LeSieur (You, Me and Dupree). GLORY DAZE is slated to premiere on TBS in late 2010.

GLORY DAZE centers on a group of friends who are trying to navigate college life in 1980s Wisconsin. From being out on their own for the first time to pledging a fraternity, they discover how challenging the next few years are going to be.

"GLORY DAZE is a sharply written, laugh-out-loud comedy with a talented ensemble cast, including comic veteran Tim Meadows," said Michael Wright, executive vice president, head of programming, for TBS, TNT and Turner Classic Movies (TCM). "The time is right for this feel-good, funny and fresh take on college life in the '80s."

TBS's GLORY DAZE is being produced by TBS Productions. Becker and LeSieur, who wrote the pilot episode, serve as executive producers.

TBS, a division of Turner Broadcasting System, Inc., is television's top-rated comedy network and is available in 100.1 million households. It serves as home to such original comedy series as My Boys, Neighbors from Hell, Are We There Yet? and Tyler Perry's House of Payne and Meet the Browns; the late-night hit Lopez Tonight, starring George Lopez, and the upcoming late-night series starring Conan O'Brien; hot contemporary comedies like Family Guy and The Office; specials like Funniest Commercials of the Year; special events, including star-studded comedy festivals in Chicago; blockbuster movies; and hosted movie showcases.
