Getting along with office colleagues can be rough, but working with
your mom? That’s a whole different story, and it’s the headline for
Katie Wendelson (Briga Heelan), a smart, ambitious news producer
at national cable news show “The Breakdown.” After 30 years of being a
stay at home mom, Carol (Andrea Martin) decides that it’s never
too late to follow your dreams and lands an internship at her daughter’s
news 
show. This is Katie’s worst nightmare, until she comes to realize
that with her biggest cheerleader at her side, she and her mom both
might just make it after all.
Sitting in the co-anchor chair at “The Breakdown” is Chuck Pierce (John Michael Higgins),
the blowhard, difficult to
please news desk veteran. Chuck intimidates
everyone on staff except for Carol, who uses her polished mom skills to
deal with him. Alongside him is Portia (Nicole Richie), the young, very hip co-host who brings a different perspective to old fashioned journalism. Leading the news team is Greg (Adam Campbell), the dashing young executive 
producer. Katie’s closest friend at the office is Justin (Horatio Sanz),
the laid back video editor who has seen it all and is always more than
happy to dole out his zenlike advice. Rounding out the newsroom is Beth (Tracey Wigfield), the creepy resident meteorologist who is far from your stereotypical weather girl.

Vivien, who has postponed her dream trip to Europe to help run the shop, wants to keep things traditional, but Chloe, who works as Fernando's assistant, a chef for a popular daytime cooking TV show, feels they should put a modern spin on things.

I'm sort of a romcom fetishist and I'm usually disappointed (sob sob). Is this a good one?
ReplyDeleteeven if it is bad there's bakery in it and food, tons of food
DeleteI'm supposed to be on a diet what with all that prednisone slapping serious pounds on me.
Deletewhat do you eat then? I've been on a diet for twenty years and I'm still a fat bastard, I need to find a bridge to jump from
DeleteI should forget about snacks, is all. Obviously, I failed miserably and now my face reminds me of a melon,
Deletewhat kind of snacks? I haven't eaten real food in a decade, and thus stories of food amuse me in a darkly nostalgic and yearning way
DeleteOh dear, I must keep my diet!! lol Cheers Dez!
ReplyDeletehave a cake, Rog, life is short
DeleteNo way, Nicole Richie back on screen?
ReplyDelete-Kati
yes, I'm not sure they needed her in the cast
DeleteThese both sound so cute! Now, I actually kind of like Nicole Richie. So glad she doesn't have that nasty Paris Hilton glued to her hip anymore.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the delicious treats in the bakery!
You do? I remember that I watched her in that Jessica Simpson fashion competition show which I actually loved, and she was nice to her contestants methinks, but I don't think she's a sitcom material and she needs to be fed like promptly
DeleteYes, she is skin and bones, but she never put on the false air that she was a moron, like many of those other girls who were trying to make it big in the reality world in the early 2000's. I like that she keeps her private life private, seems to hold her marriage together well, keeps her kids out of the spotlight, and just seems like a genuinely nice person. I haven't ever seen her in a real acting scene, but I'd give her a fair shot before brushing her off. Then again, you could very well be right. None of those reality starlets like Jessica Simpson, Paris Hilton, etc could act to save their lives, so we shall see if Nicole is any different.
ReplyDeleteJessica isn't a starlet, she sings and has a very lucrative fashion business, Paris, though, is the mother of them all :) Or was, before the Craptrashian ho appeared.
