NBC is going to fuse comedy with shocking real-life stories in True Story, a hybrid alternative-scripted series hosted by Ed Helms (The Office, The Hangover) and Randall Park (Fresh Off the Boat, Always Be My Maybe). The six-episode series, based on the Australian show True Story with Hamish & Andy, hails from Warner Horizon Unscripted Television.
In True Story, everyday Americans sit down with Helms and Park to share their most extraordinary and unbelievably true stories. The stories get heightened, dramatized re-enactments of cinematic proportions by a cast of top comedians and actors. Each hourlong episode will feature two real-life stories.
