IFC is upping its comedy quotient and star power. The cable network has greenlit two new series. First up: The Spoils of Babylon, an epic spoof from Funny or Die and executive producers Will Ferrell, Adam McKay, Matt Piedmont, and Andrew Steele. “This is a crazy and maybe even a stupid idea,” said Ferrell of the project. “IFC is either really courageous or really stupid, which makes them the perfect partner for us.” The series will have an ensemble cast and is slated to air in 2013. IFC is also moving forward with the new scripted sketch comedy The Birthday Boys, executive produced by Ben Stiller and Bob Odenkirk. The show originally began and found success with viral videos on online.
