Things are going well for 'The View's co-host Sherri Shepherd these days.
Besides working with a fab group of ladies on the long-running ABC daily show, having a recurring role on NBC's '30 Rock,' and becoming engaged to television writer Lamar Sally over the Christmas holidays, the Chicago native is set to co-star opposite Christine Taylor in TV Land's untitled Terri Minsky comedy pilot, states Deadline.com.
Set at Rip City Cola, a regional beverage manufacturer and distributor in Oregon. When a young, Ivy League-educated New York woman (played by Taylor) takes over as the boss, the entire office is shaken and unsure of what happens next.
Shepherd will play the Rip City Cola office drama queen, who, like the others, is curious about the new CEO, and very nervous about the fact that someone's going to be fired.
Shepherd, who starred and exec produced her own sitcom 'Sherri for Lifetime', will also appear on TV Land's first original sitcom, 'Hot In Cleveland,' next month.
Although it only lasted one season with 13 episodes taped, 'Sherri' was the first comedy series ever to be owned by Lifetime.
Shepherd, who appeared in Lee Daniels' 'Precious' with Oscar winner Mo'Nique, will be featured in Martin Lawrence's upcoming film, 'Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son,' the third installment of the 'Big Momma's franchise.
In addition, the 43-year-old comedienne recently took over the reigns as host when the re-launched version of 'The Newlywed Game' returns for its fourth season this November.
