First, the funnyman inked a deal with the Syfy channel to create a five-part horror anthology.

The series will be loosely based on Jamie's relationship with his 18-year-old daughter, Corinne. A TNT statement explained the show's concept saying,
"Every teenager is embarrassed by his/her parents. But what if your dad decided to descend upon your life in every way? Inspired by Jamie Foxx’s relationship with his 18-year-old daughter, this comedy explores the dynamic between a parent and a child and all the embarrassment that comes with it."
TNT has not revealed when production of "Dad, Stop Embarrassing Me" will begin, but Syfy has announced that Jamie's horror series will air in October.
Congrats to Jamie and Corinne.
