According to TVGuide.com, Rachel Dratch and Danny Comden has both scored roles on the upcoming NBC comedy pilot, LADY FRIENDS.

The show is about two longtime female friends who are living very different lives - one, Nicole (Andrea Anders), has a loving husband and family, the other, Jen (yet to be cast) not so much - but couldn't live without each other. She'll play their pal Lisa ("just a little bit worse off in every way than Jen, which is why Jen keeps her around") while he's set as Jen's ex-husband Davis ("one of those rock star type chefs - charming, super confident, verging on arrogant"). Kari Lizer is behind the Warner Bros. Television-based half-hour, to be helmed by Scott Ellis.

Dratch is a 'Saturday Night Live' alum. Her other TV credits include guest appearances on 30 Rock and King of Queens.
