Mary Holland To Co-Star In Carol Burnett ABC Comedy Pilot ‘Household Name’
March 1st, 2017
MaryHolland (Blunt Talk) has landed a lead role opposite Carol Burnett and Matt Oberg in the ABC multi-camera comedy pilot Household Name, written/executive produced by Michael Saltzman and executive produced by Amy Poehler through her Paper Kite banner.
Household Name is about a family — parents Tim (Oberg) and Wendy (Holland) and their kids — who gets a chance to buy the house of their dreams but under extremely abnormal circumstances: They must live with the current owner — an eccentric, larger-than-life actress (Burnett) — until she dies.
Holland’s Wendy is a bit neurotic and a helicopter parent who is hesitant to move in with Burnett’s character. They do not see eye to eye about a lot of things, but she concedes because the deal is too good to pass up. Timothy Omundson co-stars.
Holland just completed a season-long arc on the HBO comedy series Veep and co-starred in the Starz comedy series Blunt Talk for two seasons.
