Wichita Sitcom Pilot Debuts Friday on PBS Kansas

By |

The pilot for Wichita Madhouse, a new locally-produced sitcom, airs this Friday at 8 p.m. on PBS Kansas (KPTS). Directed and written by PBS Kansas executive producer Jim Grawe, this independently-produced television show stars real-life Wichita TV personalities Anthony Powell and Sierra Scott as a divorced couple who continue to live together because neither wants to give up the house. “Each tries to drive the other out. I thought that would create possibilities for different characters and constant conflict that might be funny,” Grawe said. The 24-minute-long pilot is intended to fill up the traditional half-hour timeslot used by most situation-comedies.
