Variety

Australian comedian Jeffries, who recently ended his three-season run as host of Comedy Central's The Jim Jeffries Show, will star in Jeffries, playing a fictionalized version of himself. NBC has also ordered the pilot American Auto from Superstore creator Justin Spitzer. American Auto is described "as a workplace comedy set at the headquarters of a major American automotive company in Detroit, where a floundering group of executives try to rediscover the company identity amidst a rapidly changing industry."
