Peacock Orders More "Kath & Kim"

NBC has ordered seven additional episodes of its comedy Kath & Kim, bringing the freshman episodic order to thirteen installments.

Kath & Kim, a remake of the beloved Australian series, stars Molly Shannon, Selma Blair, John Michael Higgins, and Mikey Day. Shannon and Blair play a bickering mother and daughter pair who can't quite manage to get out of one another's hair even when they're not (metaphorically) choking each other to death.

The additional episodic order for Kath & Kim comes swiftly on the heels of the wrap of production on the series' first installment. (NBC had ordered the project directly to series without shooting a pilot.) Production on the remaining episodes is expected to begin in July.

Kath & Kim will launch on NBC this fall in the plum post-Office slot at 9:30 pm ET/PT.
