Yes! Two of my favorite funny people, Reno 911‘s Niecy Nash (pictured) and inexplicable Grammys correspondent Jason Bateman are teaming up for a Fox pilot called The Inn, described as "upstairs/downstairs at a hip New York hotel." Nash will star; Bateman will direct (!), and Arrested Development mastermind Abraham Higginbotham is writing it. In the immortal word of Deputy Raineesha Williams, "Boom!" Everything about this sounds awesome. I ask though, can J-Bate please consider being "inn" the show as well? For some reason I can’t get the short-lived Golden Girls spinoff The Golden Palace out of my head, and I’m picturing Bateman as Don Cheadle’s manager or Cheech Marin’s wacky chef. WHY? That’s just wrong.

The Brits have shown a good hotel series can be done with Hotel Babylon. It already sounds like the series is in good hands. Where can I make a reservation?
