CBS has ordered a pilot for the multicamera comedy The Kicker, executive produced by 30 Rock's Tina Fey and Robert Carlock.

Fey had previously found success amongst the new breed of television, with Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt debuting on streaming platform Netflix. The Kicker will thus see her return to the traditional format, though she leaves her previous home at NBC (Saturday Night Live, 30 Rock) behind.

Penned by Jack Burditt, Variety reports the show will see an eccentric athlete driven further into his eccentricities when he's suddenly cut from his professional football team. Burditt has previously worked on the likes of 30 Rock, Frasier, and Just Shoot Me.

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt continues its strong run at Netflix, having now been renewed for a third season. Fey and Carlock have developed several other pilots over the past couple of years and are currently working on the pilot for a mother-daughter comedy at NBC.

Tina Fey can next be seen on the big screen in Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, based on the memoirs of journalist Kim Barker, The Taliban Shuffle: Strange Days in Afghanistan and Pakistan. The film sees release in UK theatres 22 April.
