VIDEO : Tara Lipinski Books Arc on Jim Carrey's Showtime Comedy 'Kidding'

The Olympic gold medalist Tara Lipinski is moving from the ice to the Showtime network, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The ice skater will play herself in a multi-episode arc on Showtime's upcoming Jim Carrey comedy series Kidding.
In the dark comedy series, Carrey stars as Jeff (aka Mr. Pickles), a children's TV icon and beacon of kindness and wisdom to America. But when his family life begins to implode, Jeff finds no fairy tale, fable or puppet will guide him through this crisis, which advances faster than his means to cope.
Kidding is the NBC Sports commentator's latest scripted role after parts on Malcolm in the Middle, Still Standing, 7th Heaven and Touched by an Angel.
