'Mad Men' star Jay R Ferguson is set for a lead role on an untitled comedy pilot, loosely based on the life of gay activist and author Dan Savage.
Written by David Windsor and Casey Johnson, the single-camera project revolves around the O'Neals, a seemingly perfect All-American family, reported Deadline.
When the youngest son comes out of the closet, all the family secrets are revealed and the family proves to be quite typical and not so perfect.
Ferguson, 40, will play the father, Pat O'Neal, a good-natured, affable cop with the Chicago police department.
