Mick Jagger: Sitcom Star?

Can Mick make me laugh? Billboard says that the Rolling Stones' frontman is in talks with ABC to star in a sitcom.

Now let's set something straight: Don't expect "According to Mick" or anything like that. The show would actually focus on a group of blue-collar guys that decide to rob a celebrity. Mick would basically be playing Mick.

The show was originally titled "I Want to Rob Jeff Goldblum." I actually think Goldblum makes a better target. He's a star, but he's not Jagger caliber, which makes it funny. If you want to go one step funnier, have Jagger play Jeff Goldblum. Now there's a sitcom.

Goldblum is currently working a deal at NBC, making a show with his name in the title a bad thing at another network. If Jagger takes the role, he would appear regularly, but only in a few scenes. -- Rachel Cericola
