New Comedy Central Show “Bad Couple” Casting Call in Austin Texas

A new Comedy Central show is filming in the Austin Texas area and there is a new casting out for talent to fill some featured roles.

Comedy Central has a new show coming up and has green lit the pilot for the series which according to a Deadline story last summer, the show is called “Bad Couple“,  however the most recent casting call for the series is calling the new Comedy Central project “Power Couple“.  Guess we shall all wait and see to find out which title the series goes for.

The new comedy is executive produced and written by real-life couple Flint Wainess and Noël Wells. The show will also star Noel Wells. The project which is loosely based on some of their adventures will follow Flint and Noël, described as an inseparable, very opinionated couple whose opinions seem to clash with social norms which makes life for their family, friends and co-workers a bit of a challenge.

Please note that the show is only considering talent that is local to the Austin Texas area. Please only apply for the roles if you are local to Austin or within a reasonable driving distance as no travel expenses are being covered.
