It might not be T.J. Miller’s world yet but he’s conquering more of it everyday.

Miller is starring in Mike Judge’s series Silicon Valley on HBO playing Weasel in Marvel’s new Deadpool as well as kicking ass with his stand up.

Why not throw in a another HBO show?

Miller has been voicing a Funny or Die comedy talk show that is hosted by a giant English-speaking blue space monster who interviews celebrities and does his best not to kill and eat them.

Variety is reporting that The Gorburger Show, has been picked up by HBO.

Miller serves is an executive producer and writer with original creators-directors Josh Martin and Ryan McNeely (The Director Brothers). Dave Becky, Funny or Die’s Sean Boyle and Mike Farah, and Lonely Island’s Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone also exec produce through their Party Over Here banner.

We briefly talked about Gorburger with Miller back in February, when he recommended that we check it out.  He said he was working on it for HBO with Lonely Island and described it as “really really insane.” When T.J. Miller calls something really really insane, you know you’re on board for something different.

Moby, Ed Helms and Johnny Knoxville are booked for The Gorburger Show pilot.
