Courteney told TV Guide, “If it all works out, she’ll play a dermatologist that my character can’t stop going to even though the doctor is mean to me, She’s the best in town at what she does and I become addicted.” she went on to say, “I did ask Matthew [Perry] if he’d play my boyfriend on the show. He thought it was a little too much after Chandler and Monica.” We wonder if Jennifer Aniston will make an appearance?

ABC won the Matthew Perry sweepstakes.

After heated bidding, the network has landed the single-camera project starring the “Friends” alum in what could be the richest deal so far this development season.

The pact for the untitled comedy, based on an idea by Perry, is expected to carry series-size penalties both to producing studio Sony TV and Perry, almost guaranteeing a green light.

The project, which Perry will be writing with Sony-based Alex Barnow and Mark Firek, became an instant hot property when it hit the marketplace this week, with ABC and “Friends” home NBC going toe-to-toe in pursuit of the show.

Thomas Schlamme is attached to direct the comedy, starring Perry as a self-involved manager of a second-rate sports arena who begins to reevaluate his life on his 40th birthday.

Perry, Barnow, Firek and Schlamme are executive producing with Sony TV-based Jamie Tarses.

The deal, which is still being finalized, gives ABC a second show fronted by a “Friends” star. Corteney Cox headlines the network’s freshman comedy “Cougar Town.”
