'Solvang'
Fri, Oct 4, 2002 07:08 PM PDT

LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - Comedian D.L. Hughley is headed to "Solvang."

He is in negotiations with NBC to co-write, executive produce and star in a comedy for
NBC Studios that would send him to California's wine country, according to The
Hollywood Reporter.

"Solvang" is about a black man and his family who leave their city lives behind and
open a bed-and-breakfast in the Central Coast town. They bring along a Latina
caretaker and her family in the comedy, which has been likened to "Green Acres."

Hughley will write and executive produce the series with Donick Carey ("The
Simpsons," "The Late Show with David Letterman" ).

The comedian's sitcom, "The Hughleys" was canceled last may after two seasons
on ABC and two on UPN, after earning Hughley four Image Award nominations. In
addition to his television credits, he has appeared in the feature films The Brothers"
and " The Original Kings of Comedy.""

I hope he erases the "Hughleys" off his resume-because that will not look good.
