Former ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ actress Sarah Michelle Gellar has signed on to co-star with comedic actor Robin Williams, 61, in an upcoming CBS sitcom ‘Crazy Ones.’

The premise of the comedy will have father and daughter operating the Roberts and Roberts Advertising Agency. Gellar’s character Sydney is the company creative director who spends much of her time parenting her father Simon.

Co-starring as a copywriter at the agency is ‘Political Animals’ actor James Wolk.

A pilot is in the works that will be directed by Jason Winter of ‘Modern Family’ and ’1600 Penn’ fame.

Like all pilot projects, it will be up the the network to give the green light for additional episodes or declare it DOA. Gellar has experienced the latter first hand after a family comedy that she was recently developing failed to move off the starting block.

The 35-year-old has been married for a decade to Freddie Prinze, Jr. They have a daughter Charlotte, 3, and an infant son Rocky who was born in September 2012.

Oscar winner Robin Williams, 60, married graphic designer Susan Schneider at the Meadowood Resort in the Napa Valley town of St. Helena, California on Sunday.

Robin and Susan met shortly before he underwent aortic heart valve replacement surgery in 2009. Their relationship grew stronger, according to the comedian, as she nursed him back to health at his L.A. home.

Days before the big wedding Schneider told the San Francisco Chronicle that she was “so excited and thrilled.”

On hand to witness the nuptials were Robin’s children Zachary, 28, Zelda, 22 and Cody, 19. Celebrity guests included Billy Crystal, Steven Spielberg, and George Lucas.

It is Williams’ third marriage.

Robin William Tour 2009

Comedic actor Robin Williams is busy promoting his upcoming movie The Greatest Dad and is set to resume his comedy tour Weapons of Self-Destruction.

Williams was a guest on The Jay Leno Show last night. He spoke about his latest film project, a dark comedy that has been well received by the critics. In the film Robin has a nude scene and Leno asked why it took Robin so long to finally do a nude scene and he responded, “Saving the best for last.”

Weapon’s of Self Destruction Tour will resume on Sept. 30th in Bloomington, Indiana. The 30-date gig will wrap on November 28th – view tour schedule here. He had to curtail the tour earlier this year when he underwent major surgery to replace a heart valve.

Robin’s website addressed a rumor that the comedian was planning to play singer Susan Boyle in an upcoming movie. No truth to this one, which undoubtedly got its start because of Williams previous role as Mrs. Doubtfire.

Watch Robin’s interview with Leno below.

World’s Greatest Dad star Robin Williams took his ‘funny’ a little too far on Wednesday night when he appeared on the Jimmy Kimmel Live show. One thing is certain–he kept the network censor guys very busy.

Not wasting too much time, Robin’s ‘crazy’ kicked in right away when he hit the stage. He took a pen from Kimmel’s desk and pretended to hoover a line of cocaine off of the hosts desk and acted out snorting it. Kimmel replied with, “I KNOW they told you to stop doing that.”

During the interview Williams was questioned about his heart valve replacement. He turned it into a joke and pretended it was a baboon heart and that the “side effect” was masturbating in public. The censors blurred out the act on television.

That wasn’t the only thing that got bleeped. Williams was also talking about strippers and names that would be appropriate for that profession–Tiny Vagina was one of his picks. The comedian poked fun at Jermaine Jackson‘s son Jermajesty’s name, then shrugging with resignation…”We’re gonna get letters anyway.”

Check out the video of the decidedly irreverent Robin Williams on Kimmel below.

Comedian Robin Williams was a guest on The David Letterman Show last night. The actor talked about his recent surgery to replace several defective heart valves and even brought a photo of his surgical scar. Letterman has also had quadruple bypass surgery so the two really got into the telling of their surgical war stories.

According to Williams, he was touring in Florida when he began experiencing shortness of breath. Doctors determined that he was suffering a serious medical condition and needed surgery within two weeks time. He had the procedure at the renowned Cleveland Clinic and has since fully recovered. In a serious moment he said, “You do get a second lease on life, and it’s a gift.”

Robin also talked about his new adventure comedy Night At The Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, scheduled for a May 22 theater release.

Check out the videos below and a photo of Robin Williams’ chest scar.
