Netflix has given a six-episode order to Myers' untitled half-hour comedy series that will have him doing what he does best: playing different characters. “I love creating characters, and Netflix has given me a fantastic playground to play in,” says Myers, who will also serve as executive producer. Myers has been appearing in character for the past two years on ABC's revival of The Gong Show as the show's british game show host, "Tommy Maitland." No word yet whether Myers will reprise any of his famous characters from SNL and the Austin Powers movies.
