VANITY SITCOM

As per vanity publishing, a comedic television series starring an actor whose fame is on the wane. The actor and character they play will have similar names and the show will be named after them. Shows with multiple main characters are not vanity sitcoms. Geena and Bette are vanity sitcoms, Seinfeld is not. Example: After Winona Ryder's latest escapades, there's nothing left for her but a vanity sitcom on the Fox network in 2003.
