NBC has picked up Betty White’s Off Their Rockers, a new hidden-camera comedy show hosted and executive produced by Betty White. The series of 12 half-hour episodes will be produced by Chris Coelen's Kinetic Content.
Known throughout Europe as Benidorm Bastards, Betty White’s Off Their Rockers follows a band of seven senior citizens who make it their mission to play pranks on unsuspecting younger people. "Betty White is a comedic genius who escalates hilarity in any situation," said Paul Telegdy, NBC's EVP Alternative Programming. "Viewers will thoroughly enjoy watching her pull one over on the unsuspecting youth of America."
Said White, "People have been telling me that I’m ‘Off My Rocker’ for years -- now I can prove it."
