LOS ANGELES, Jan 6, 2006 (UPI via COMTEX) -- Prolific comedy writer Carol Leifer is spread across the TV dial with projects in development at Fox, CBS and Nickelodeon.
Leifer's Fox project -- the brainchild of Steven Spielberg -- is about an unlikely friendship forged by two divorced women with very different personalities, Daily Variety said.
Not a lot of information is available about "Never in My Wildest," Leifer's CBS comedy, which has a contingent order, Variety said.
NBC Universal TV and DreamWorks TV are involved in both the Fox and CBS projects along with Leifer.
Over at Nick at Night, Leifer's developing a pilot based on the life of Darlene Westgor, a single mom who won the network's "Search for the Funniest Mom in America."
Among Leifer's many production and writing credits are "Seinfeld," "The Larry Sanders Show," "The Ellen Show," "Saturday Night Live" and her own WB comedy, "Alright Already."
