NBC has added three new pilot projects for 2014-15, according to The Hollywood Reporter, with comedies coming from Will Ferrell, Dan Mazer and Jason Katims.

Borat and Bruno writer Dan Mazer will potentially bring Love is Relative to the network. The show takes a look at how a relationship changes between a husband and wife once her recently divorced brother moves in with them. The 20th Century Fox comedy comes from Good Humor TV. It will be executive produced by Mazer, Tom Werner and Tom Lassally.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia's David Hornsby, Will Ferrell and Adam McKay's Gary Sanchez Productions have teamed up to create Universal Television's Mission Control. The show is said to have a similar vibe as Anchorman, set in 1962, and it looks at the relationship between a man and woman who are fighting over who will land on the moon first.

With a tentative title, Ellen More or Less, this new show comes from writer/executive producer J.J. Philbin (New Girl) will be produced by Jason Katims' (Parenthood) True Jack Productions via his overall deal with Universal Television. It takes a look at a woman who has recently lost 100 pounds and is ready to rejuvenate her life. Katims and Michelle Lee are set to be executive producers for the show should it pass the pilot stage.

Philbin would join her husband, Mike Schur, Parks and Recreation showrunner, at the network should the show move forward.

The shows join seven other pilots on the roster, which include Casey Wilson's Mason Twins, David Caspe's Marry Me and the Bad Judge starring Kate Walsh.
