SYFY DEVELOPS NCREDIBLE IMPROV
Executive Producers Nick Cannon And Michael Goldman To Create Sci-Fi/Fantasy Sketch Competition Series
NEW YORK - July 24, 2014 - Syfy has partnered with Nick Cannon's NCredible Entertainment to develop a weekly one hour sci-fi/fantasy improv series.
The show will be taped in front of a live audience and feature two teams battling for the biggest laughs to win points and prizes. The "home" team will consist of 4-6 nationally known comedians. Each week they will compete against a different improv squad in various sci-fi/fantasy related sketches.
A nationwide casting call will occur later this summer to determine the "away" teams.
Nick Cannon and Michael Goldman will serve as executive producers.
