(CNN) -

Melissa McCarthy and her husband clearly have a great working relationship.

The Emmy-winning actress stars in CBS' "Mike & Molly," and now her husband, Ben Falcone, will join the network as well - at least in a new pilot.

According to Entertainment Weekly, McCarthy and Falcone -- who was also her "Bridesmaids" co-star -- have received a green light from CBS on a comedy pilot.

The as-of-now untitled program will star Falcone as a single 37-year-old whose bank account is depleted after the real estate market falls apart, and is forced to move back home with his parents.

McCarthy's serving as executive producer, and Falcone will co-write with "Mad TV's" Larry Dorf.
