Comedian Bill Burr will star in a new comedy show for Quibi, the upcoming mobile-only streaming service, that will explore how far people are willing to go to get what they want.
Each episode of the series, currently being produced under the working title “Immoral Compass,” will have a character facing a “desperate desire: love, fame, money, intelligence, family, power, and intelligence, among a number of other hot button topics,” according to Quibi. They’ll then be faced with an “extremely unethical decision” that would land the character whatever they desire — if they choose to do it.
“Immoral Compass” will feature several standup comedians, Quibi said. The show is inspired by YouTuber Tyler Falbo’s digital shorts. Falbo will also write, direct and executive produce the show.
