Imagine a CBS Sitcom Starring Groupon Employees -- It's Happening

Vanity Fair is reporting that a new sitcom entitled “Friend Me” has just been ordered to series by CBS and will feature characters who work at Groupon.  In January, when news first broke of the pilot episode, Groupon denied that it had any involvement in the show, but that’s because it was a one off pilot.  Now that the show will be airing weekly, will Groupon need to intervene in some way?

The show will not focus on Groupon specifically, but on the two employees who work at the company in Los Angeles.
