Meet cutting edge therapist Dr. Elizabeth Goode. She's brash, unconventional, judgmental, but undeniably thriving as the "it therapist" to Hollywood's maladjusted celebrity elite. Boldly brandishing her own unique mental insight and technique. Dr. Goode's days have rapidly become filled with a literal who's who from the world of entertainment, sports and music. Having recently moved her practice to Los Angeles, Dr. Goode currently shares office space with philistine Freudian shrink, Dr. Myron Finkelstein, whose own practice is floundering due to a rash of recent patient suicides. He is more than a little intrigued about Dr. Goode's methods if for no other reason than he may draw a few of those waiting patients onto his hopelessly vacant couch. Secretary Lola Buckingham runs the quaint, but busy office whilst attempting to teach the boundary-less Finkelstein a little celebrity etiquette. Celebrities filling the pages of her burgeoning appointment book in her first year of practice include Fred Willard, Rick Fox, Tom Sizemore, Alanis Morrisette, Jason Priestley, Ione Skye, Sean Hayes, Ralph Macchio, Jane Kaczmarek, Jennifer Finnigan, Andy Dick, Shelby Lynne, Rich Eisen, Jonathan Silverman, Liz Phair, Willie Garson. In some circles, Dr. Goode's unusual brand of therapy could be deemed a little eccentric and somewhat strange, but judging by her patient Rolodex and recent rumor of an impending book, Premiere Magazine's "20 Most Powerful Women in Hollywood" has a new contender – Dr. Elizabeth Goode…

A huge hit in the U.K., "The Bronx Bunny" stars two foul-mouthed furry animals – Bronx Bunny, the star-struck title character, and his cranky sidekick Teddy T, the politically incorrect, sexually innuendo's panda. The duo, who recently moved from the Bronx, invite celebrity guests into their crummy East Los Angeles TV studio/apartment where they run a low-rent uncensored public access show, asking questions you wouldn't hear asked on typical interview shows. Among the stars that join the two hosts include Howie Mandel ("Deal or No Deal"), Kelly Carlson("Nip/Tuck"), "Star Trek's" George Takei, Joely Fisher ("Desperate Housewives"), "Saved By the Bell's" Screech (Dustin Diamond) and many others (add others). Wrapped around the show are snippets of supposedly adult education programs and gratuitous shots of semi-nude porn actresses in titillating dream sequences with Teddy T. So send the kids to bed - turn to Starz and prepare to laugh out loud because "The Bronx Bunny" is hopping to the channel.

 

A ? hour of comedy Starz' returning original stand-up comedy series "1st Amendment Stand-up," premieres as Martin Lawrence Presents 1st Amendment Stand-up with Lawrence serving as executive producer. Raw, relevant and always funny, the series features more than 30 of the nation's most talented, fresh and untapped comedians. Representing a diverse group - young, old, African American, Latino, male and female - each comedian delivers entertaining and side-splitting stand-up that celebrates their right to freedom of speech. From issues including airport security to making love to being overweight to various ethnic anecdotes, each comedian goes center stage to provoke, captivate and tell-it-like-it-is, in their own entertaining urban and explosive styles. Taped before a live audience at the world famous Improv in San Jose, California, each half-hour is hosted by one of Hollywood's most hilarious stand-up comedians Doug Williams who adds his own unique comedy style to the mix. The show is directed by Michael Bohusz known by many in the business from his work with "Comic View." Adding a special dose of hip-hop flavor in between the laughs is the very talented DJ and entertainer Biz Markie.
