Jeffrey Tambor Will Star in The Onion's New Amazon Series

Jeffrey Tambor is about to become the king of online TV. Not only will we soon see him reprise his role as Arrested Development‘s George Bluth Sr. (a.k.a. Pop-pop), but Deadline reports that he’s just signed on to star in The Onion’s new Amazon Studios series. The scripted comedy The Onion Presents: The News will follow the cutthroat antics of The Onion News Network’s competitive staff, as an aging anchor who feels threatened by a young upstart. Hey, it’s got to be better than The Newsroom, right?
