NBC Orders More Kath & Kim

According to The Hollywood Reporter, NBC has ordered seven additional episodes of new series Kath & Kim, bringing the total order to thirteen. K&K is a series we’ve been anticipating for quite some time here at NGTV. Based on the Australian series of the same name (what is it with those Australians?!?), K&K focuses on the dysfunctional relationship between Kath (Molly Shannon), a cheerful, fortysomething divorcee, and her self-absorbed daughter, Kim (Selma Blair). The first episode just finished filming, and apparently the folks at NBC liked what they saw.

Kath & Kim premieres on Thursday, October 9 at 9:30/8:30c, following The Office on NBC.
