Eric Bischoff is set for another TV production with Scott Baio. Here are the details?

"Nickelodeon's Nick at Nite picks up the original scripted live-action pilot, Daddy's Home, which will star actor/director/writer/producer Scott Baio (Happy Days, Joni Loves Chachi, Charles In Charge, and Scott Baio is 45 and Single, among others) , Nick at Nite's first since the early 1990s (Hi Honey I'm Home). The multi-camera, half-hour comedy resolves around David Hobbs (Baio) an actor who becomes a stay at home dad after playing a popular TV dad for ten years, thus holding up his end of the bargain he made with his soap star wife so that she can now return work. Daddy's Home comes from creators/executive producers Tina Albanese (a producer on JAG, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation) and Patrick Labyorteaux (Andrew Garvey on Little House on the Prairie, and Bud Roberts on JAG) and is executive producers Eric Bischoff (also an author) and Jason Hervey (Wayne Arnold on The Wonder Years) via their Bischoff Hervey Entertainment (BHE), along with Baio. BHE previously worked on Scott Baio is 45 and Single, Scott Baio is 46 and Pregnant, and Confessions of a Teen Idol. Before partnering Bischoff and Hervey produced numerous live events and other productions. Nick at Nite's current programming lineup includes family series such as Home Improvement, Everybody Hates Chris, Friends, George Lopez, and Family Matters, as well as The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and Roseanne."
