Damon Wayans is 'Never Better'

I don't know how this slipped past my radar, but apparently it was confirmed last month that Daman Wayans is set to star in a new ABC comedy pilot entitled, "Never Better".

Wayans will play a man who is overcoming a drinking problem and who is eager to reform his past so that he will be a better father and husband.

Nicole Ari Parker has also joined the cast as she will be playing Wayan's wife.

I don't know about this sitcom. Although Wayans had a good five season run with ABC's 'My Wife and Kids', I can't see lightning striking twice in the same location. Also, Parker doesn't have much comedy appeal in my opinion like Wayans' former on-screen wife, Tisha Campbell.

And is it me or does Damon Wayans seem like he has a drinking problem of his own as of late? Maybe the plot for this new sitcom is based on fact moreso than fiction.

No word yet on when or if this pilot will see the light of day. If so, BONTV will be sure to give you the scoop.
