Showtime picks up "Juno" scribe's comedy
 Showtime has ordered 12  half-hour episodes of "The United States of Tara," a comedy  from Oscar-winning "Juno" screenwriter Diablo Cody.
Toni Collette stars as a wife and mother with dissociative  identity disorder. John Corbett plays her husband.
Story lines will examine how a dysfunctional family copes  with the various identities that might appear on any given day  and range in age, temperament and even gender.
It's expected to enter production in Los Angeles in the  summer. The pay cable channel hopes to launch the show early  next year.
Cody wrote the pilot, which was directed by Craig Gillespie  ("Lars and the Real Girl"). She will continue to serve as a  writer, and an executive producer alongside Steven Spielberg
