Following a successful pilot directed by Jesse Peretz, Divorce has been commissioned for an entire series, attaching Parker to her first major TV series since Sex and the City.

Divorce , which has been hailed as a more grown-up successor to Sex and the City, will centre on Frances – played by Parker – who, encouraged by her friends, attempts to divorce her husband - with apparently comedic results.
Other stars of the show include Thomas Haden Church, Molly Shannon and Talia Balsam.
Sharon Hogan, best known for creating and starring in Bad Management, Dead Boss and Catastrophe, is the show's writer and will also co-produce alongside Parker, Paul Simms, Aaron Kaplan and Alison Benson.
HBO is also considering the release of a Sarah Silverman comedy pilot.
