NBC CPA Turns Private Eye

Tired of crunching numbers? “Andy Barker PI,” a new NBC prime-time comedy starring Andy Richter, follows the comedic adventures of a mild-mannered CPA-turned private investigator.

Upon renting office space in a California strip mall formerly occupied by a detective agency, Barker encounters clients who mistake him for a private investigator. Lured by the excitement lacking from his real job, he decides to take on cases and a new career.

Late-night talk show host Conan O’Brien, with whom Richter worked as a sidekick, is a cowriter and executive producer of the pilot.
