Chalke, 38, will play Kelly Bishop, happily married to Charlie (Rob Riggle) and the mother of their three kids: Elizabeth, George and Mac, said the Hollywood Reporter.
A strong, excitable beauty, Kelly quit her job as a local TV news producer to spend more time with her family and is finding that being a stay-at-home mom is much more exhausting, time-consuming and frustrating than working in an office.
The role marks Chalke's latest comedy foray following 'Scrubs', 'How to Live With Your Parents' and 'How I Met Your Mother'.
