Kellie Pickler to get Sitcom on Fox

This should be interesting. By the end of Pickler on American Idol, I was tired of all the goofy naive humor. Is Fox really scrapping the barrel or what?

Variety reports that Fox is developing a half-hour sitcom revolving around "American Idol" finalist and new BNA recording artist, Kellie Pickler. Kellie will play a naive small-town Southern girl who discovers that her biological father is the state's well-respected governor. His presidential dreams are put in jeopardy, but the two form a father-daughter relationship that winds up helping his standing in the polls.
