Fox is developing a half-hour comedy revolving around “American Idol” finalist Kellie Pickler, says Variety.
Pickler will play a naive small-town Southern girl — a character based on herself — who discovers that her biological father is the state’s well-respected governor. His presidential dreams are put in jeopardy, but the two form a father-daughter relationship that winds up helping his standing in the polls.
