Rashida Jones will be producing a new NBC comedy pilot called "A to Z," taking on the project after leaving fellow NBC show "Parks and Recreation."

"A to Z" is a romantic comedy situated at an online dating company and "chronicles the life of a relationship from introduction to destruction," Entertainment Weekly reported.

Jones will be an executive producer along with Will McCormack; writer and producer Ben Queen will write the plot and also work as an executive producer.

The "Celeste & Jesse Forever" actress has been busy lately, also planning a half-hour pilot for HBO called "Claws." Described as a "midnight-dark workplace dramedy noir," the project will center on a Florida nail salon and the women who work there, Deadline reportedly exclusively last month.

Jones and fellow "Parks and Recreation" star Rob Lowe recently filmed their last episode for the show, which is in its sixth season on NBC. The episode is scheduled to air in February, according to The Huffington Post.

NBC has also reportedly given the green light to "The Mason Twins," which is another a single-camera comedy pilot.

The show will be written and executive-produced by "Happy Endings" actress Casey Wilson and "NTSF:SD:SUV::" star June Rafael. Centering on fraternal twin sisters who find each other again after 15 years apart, "The Mason Twins" will see one sister's "perfect urban life" fall apart. She returns to the suburbs to find that her sister never really grew out of being a teenager.

A third comedy ordered by NBC is "Marry Me," a pilot from "Happy Endings" creator David Caspe.

NBC has reportedly given the go-ahead to a drama as well, a CIA spy thriller called "Coercion," which will focus on an American war hero and CIA analyst.
