Harry Styles is producing a sitcom about his early One Direction days

And we’ll definitely be watching.

We could be about to find the TV show we never knew we needed as Harry Styles is to executive-produce a sitcom loosely based on his early career with One Direction.

The former 1D singer is working with CBS on a show titled Happy Together which will star Damon Wayans Jr and Amber Stevens West.

The show will tell the story of a married couple living in suburbia who have their lives turned upside down when a young pop star moves in with them.

The storyline closely mirrors Harry’s early boyband days as he lived with his friend and TV producer Ben Winston and his wife in London when he first shot to fame.

Originally due to stay just two weeks, Harry ended up living in the home with the couple for nearly two years and we can only imagine the stories they have to tell.


Well, Harry will probably use those stories as inspiration for the new show which he is co-producing with former housemate Ben.

The show is expected to air in the autumn, taking a prime 8.30pm slot on Monday evenings.

Speaking of the new addition to the channel, president of CBS Entertainment Kelly Kahl said:

“We’ve maintained stability across winning nights while adding some important new pieces to our Monday night line-up.”
