The production company is already making serious moves as it was recently announced that Mayim will star as the lead in the FOX Comedy Series Call Me Kat, based off the hit BBC series Miranda, which she and her former co-star Jim Parsons will Executive Produce. She recently took on the role of TV show host on the TBS series Celebrity Show-Off, produced by The Masked Singer’s Craig Plestis.
