Dan Harmon Nearing Deal for Fox Sitcom

Dan Harmon appears on his way back to the small screen.

In news first broken by TV Guide, the Community creator - whose contract was not renewed by NBC following that sitcom's third season - is nearing a deal with Fox for a multi-camera series. Not many other details are available at this time.

Harmon has been developing an animated program for Adult Swim titled Rick & Morty, but this Fox contract would mark a return to primetime for the writer/producer.

Earlier this month, Harmon appeared on G4 and spoke on his Community firing. The creator defended his vision for the show, but also admitted he can sort of be a jerk sometimes.
