Former “Seinfeld” writer Carol Leifer’s first produced script for that show guest-starred actress Marlee Matlin, and now the two have teamed up for a Showtime single-camera comedy, reports The Hollywood Reporter.

The series about a high-powered law firm, called “Mouthpiece,” would star Matlin and Mario Cantone.

Leifer, creator of “The Ellen Show,” also has received a script order for a multicamera project at CBS with the working title "You and Me and He," about a recently divorced woman, who finds out she’s pregnant with her ex-husband’s baby after entering a lesbian relationship.
