Comedy Central has ordered a pilot from the satirical news magazine The Onion.
The prospective half-hour scripted series will be based on The Onion's Sports Network, an online video series that parodies sports shows—especially those on ESPN.
Onion News Network director Will Graham says in a statement to expect "the most intense sports coverage humanity has yet witnessed."
A spokeswoman for Comedy Central says the pilot constitutes the first collaboration between the two comedy institutions.
