The Good Wife Is a Must Watch for Mothers
To say that Alicia Florrick from CBS's new show is The Good Wife is an understatement. After her politician husband Peter (Chris Noth) is embroiled in a sex scandal, she publicly appears with him. We've all wondered why real-life women like Elizabeth Edwards and Silda Spitzer stood by their men despite being humiliated.
CBS's Accidentally on Purpose Pales in Comparison to Book
Mary Pols's Accidentally on Purpose made me laugh, cry, and relate. I rooted for the 39-year-old film critic and her baby daddy, Matt, as I read the author's witty account of her unplanned journey into motherhood. Considering the book to be the mama of all pregnancy must reads, I even gifted it to several expecting friends.
Anticipating Tonight's Premiere of Accidentally On Purpose!
When I read Accidentally On Purpose, Mary Pols' honest and witty text transcended typical mommy lit and unfolded like the best movie I'd ever seen —little did I know it would hit the small screen! Tonight CBS premieres its sitcom based on the autobiographical book by the 39-year-old film critic who got pregnant during a one-night stand with a man 10 years her junior. I'm excited to see how the network and cast (which stars Jenna Elfman and British actress Ashley Jensen, who recently chatted with BuzzSugar) adapt the story of the couple who forged a friendship with benefits as they prepared to raise their child together into episodes.
Art Imitates Life: Will You Watch Show About a Sex Scandal?
When CBS announced The Good Wife, an upcoming show about a politician's wife shamed by her husband's public sex scandal, there's no way the network could have predicted that cheating governor Mark Sanford would give the show an awesome tie-in to current events. Or maybe it could have — politicians seem to be having affairs at a rapid pace these days!
Refreshingly, the philandering politician (played by Chris Noth) is not the star of the show's plot.
Do You Tune Into Katie Couric's Evening News?
While the nightly headlines might not be so optimistic, things are looking up for Katie Couric and CBS. On the tails of her Sarah Palin interview this Summer, Katie has secured a Grammy special, and the first interview with US Airways pilot Chelsey "Sully" Sullenberger. Meanwhile, ratings for the CBS Evening News are on the rise.
CBS Scores Another Daily Show Alum: Rob Riggle
CBS's comedy department is starting to look a little like The Daily Show, Primetime Edition. Current Daily Show correspondent Rob Riggle has just signed a deal to create and star in a half-hour CBS comedy, following a similar deal by Samantha Bee and Jason Jones last week.
Riggle is committed to The Daily Show through the end of the year, but after that, he'll make the jump to CBS to start working on his show.
Is it Possible to Be President and Not Lie to Americans?
Who's a liar, liar pants-on-fire? Neither candidate apparently, according to answers given to Katie Couric as part of her "Presidential Questions" series. Couric asked last night, "Describe a situation when you think it's appropriate to lie to the American people."More on PetSugar
