Netflix isn’t about to slow down with the original content now. The streaming service’s latest pick up is a 13-episode starring Maria Bamford called Lady Dynamite, reports Deadline. Co-written by Arrested Development creator Mitch Hurwitz and former South Park scribe Pam Brady, the show is based on the actress-comedian’s life and tells, “the story of a woman who loses – and then finds — her s—t.” The show is the latest comedy to get picked up by Netflix, following in the steps of With Bob and David, Fuller House, The Ranch, and a currently untitled Aziz Ansari series.
