I was in the hospital a few days ago. With nothing to do, I was flipping between channels on the TV, and caught a show that had multiple plot threads going on. One of them was about an Asian woman who was the head writer on a show starring a bunch of ferrets (puppets, I assume). The network said they wanted to add a human character and forced her to add in an obnoxious white male comedian who wasn't nearly as funny as he thought he was. The weird part is that the other plot threads (on the outer show) seemed to be from completely unrelated shows - they weren't even the same genre, as the ferret plotline seemed like a sitcom and the other plot threads were from a drama or a police procedural. Anyway, it appeared to be something currently-running, not a re-run. Anyone recognize it?
