SNL Vet Nasim Pedrad Is a High School Boy in Chad Teaser

Nasim Pedrad was all about the misfits during her time on Saturday Night Live, with characters like Nippy and Bedelia, and now she's taking her talent for awkward to its natural home — into the body of a high school freshman boy in the new series Chad. 

This show has had a long journey to finally get to the screen on TBS. The first trailer for the show came out over a year and a half ago (as seen below), and was originally developed at Fox four years before that. Now we just have a few more months to wait before we get to watch Chad in all his (lack) of glory. 

Chad premieres April 6 on TBS.

Andy Hunsaker has a head full of sitcom gags and nerd-genre lore, and can be followed @AndyHunsaker if you're into that sort of thing.
