Deadline.com reports that Jay Mohr, Ellen Woglom and Ben Falcone will star in comedy pilots for the TV Land network.  

Mohr and Woglom will join previously announced cast member Josh Cooke in the multi-camera comedy pilot BROTHERS-IN-LAW. The pilot is written and executive produced by 3rd Rock From the Sun's Bill Martin and Mike Schiff. The duo will also serve as showrunners.

The story will center on "the family dynamic between a husband (Cooke) and the eccentric new boyfriend (Mohr) of his wife’s fraternal twin sister (Woglom), who have nothing in common but the sisters constantly force them to bond." Actor and comedian Mohr recently had a recurring role on ABC’s Suburgatory. 

In other TV Land news, Ben Falcone will star in another comedy pilot, I’m Not Dead, from Ben Silverman’s Electus. The project is penned by Jon Sherman and will follow "a man (Falcone) who finds out that he has a rare heart condition that could cause him to die at any moment and decides to finally start speaking his mind and live life to the fullest." Silverman is executive producing, with Electus’ Jimmy Fox co-executive producing.

Falcone starred and co-wrote a comedy pilot for CBS, which he co-produced with his wife, actress Melissa McCarthy. His film credits include Bridesmaids and What To Expect When You’re Expecting.
