Exclusive: Punam Patel, who starred in Netflix comedy Special, and Matt Rogers, host of HBO Max’s dog-grooming competition series Haute Dog, have joined I Love This for You, Showtime’s comedy pilot written by and starring Vanessa Bayer.
If picked up to series, the pair would appear as series regulars. Cybill Shepherd, Molly Shannon, Ayden Mayeri and Paul James also star.
Co-created and executive produced by Bayer and Jeremy Beiler (Saturday Night Live), I Love This for You is a grounded comedy in which Bayer plays a character, inspired by her own past, who overcame childhood leukemia to achieve her lifelong dream of landing a job as a successful home-shopping channel host.
Patel will play Tami, an offbeat backstage producer, while Rogers will play Darcy, the ingratiating right-hand man to the CEO of a home-shopping network.
