Ellen isn't content to have a juggernaut daytime talk show--she's taking over all of television. As a producer and via her company, A Very Good Production, DeGeneres has a roster of programs that includes the new sitcom One Big Happy, Kevin Nealon's Laugh Lessons, the Web-to-TV project Couple Time, Ellen's Design Challenge, the hidden-camera show Repeat After Me, an Idina Menzel comedy, and five more projects in development. Give the woman a channel, already.
