Sarah Silverman is one step closer to being NBC's newest star. According to the Hollywood Reporter, NBC has ordered her untitled comedy project to pilot.

The show is loosely based on Silverman's life. She'll star as a woman who is adjusting to single life after her decade-long relationship ends.

The comic co-wrote the project with her 'Sarah Silverman Program' cohorts Dan Sterling and Jon Schroeder. She'll also serve as executive producer with Ron Howard, Sterling, Brian Grazer and Francie Calfo.

NBC bought the script in August following an intense bidding war.

Other pilots in development at NBC include 'Beautiful People,' 'Isabel' and Save Me. Those projects are now casting.
