Big Lake is an American sitcom on Comedy Central that debuted on August 17, 2010, and ran for one season. The series was originally designed as a vehicle for Jon Heder, but Heder left the project shortly before production started and was replaced with Chris Gethard. The series was picked up using a similar model as Tyler Perry's House of Payne and Meet The Browns with an initial 10 episode order by Comedy Central, with an option to pick up the series for an additional 90 episodes, to have 100 episodes available for syndication. The deal was not picked up after Comedy Central passed on a second season.
