"TV Land is so excited about 'Hot in Cleveland,'" states Larry W. Jones, President, TV Land. "Adding these celebrated personalities in the entertainment industry gives a different twist to every episode and only heightens our anticipation for this series. Our audience will love it!"

"Hot In Cleveland" revolves around three fabulous best friends from LA - novelist Melanie Moretti (Bertinelli), eye-brow archer to the stars Joy Scroggs (Leeves) and former soap star Victoria Chase (Malick) - who find their lives changed forever when their plane, headed for Paris, makes an unexpected landing. When the friends discover that they are hot in Cleveland, they decide to stay. Starting over, they rent a house that happens to come with a very feisty caretaker (White).
