Kelsey Grammer Goes Corporate for ABC Sitcom

Frasier and Back to You alum Kelsey Grammer is coming back to TV.

The five-time Emmy winner has signed on to headline a sitcom for ABC, Variety reports. To be shot multi-camera, the as-yet-untitled series will center around Grammer's corporate executive who reconnects with his family after losing his cushy job.

Grammer will executive produce the show with Good Humor TV's Tom Werner and Mike Clements, and Tucker Cawley (Everybody Loves Raymond). Cawley is writing the pilot.

This is the actor's second pilot for the Alphabet. His adaptation of the British sitcom Roman's Empire failed to make their schedule this year.

Grammer was last seen on TV on Fox's Back to You, which was axed after one season in May.
