Pretty Season Finale To Feature Joan Van Ark 1/24

By:

On Monday, January 24th, the series that's been hailed by critics as "hilarious" and "hysterically funny," will deliver its Second Season finale in a big way with a special appearance by "Knots Landing" star and television icon Joan Van Ark.

"We're thrilled to have Ms. Van Ark join our cast," says creator Steve Silverman. "She'll be part of a finale that will surprise everyone: Whether you're a first time viewer or you've watched all of Seasons One and Two, we'll deliver a twist that even our biggest fans won't see coming."

"This show is so smart and fun and brave," says Van Ark. "I love comedy. And I get to play so not 'Valene Ewing' or the signature thing people may think of as Joan Van Ark."

This Second Season finale will be a star-studded event with the return of all of this season's guest stars including Kirsten Vangsness ("Criminal Minds"), Jennifer Elise Cox ("Will & Grace," "The Brady Bunch" movies), Alison Quinn ("Curb Your Enthusiasm," "Sons & Daughters"), Denise Alexander ("General Hospital"), Allie Mac Kay ("The KTLA Morning Show"), and Melissa Peterman ("Working Class," "Reba").

Written and directed by renowned playwright and director Steve Silverman, "Pretty," a mockumentary in the style of "The Office" and Christopher Guest movies ("Best In Show," "Waiting For Guffman"), centers itself in the world of children's beauty pageants, where one proud pageant dad (played by Sam Pancake) simply wants to see his five year old daughter win - his five year old daughter Annette is portrayed by a grown woman, actress Stacy McQueen.

Will Annette finally take home the crown at the Miss Star Eyes Pageant and win the coveted gift certificates to Olive Garden? Or will the colorful Champagne family walk away with nothing but more escalating pageant debt? See for yourself when the final episode of Season Two of "Pretty" airs on January 24th.

Episodes of "Pretty" can now be viewed, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Viewers can check out photos, read the "Pretty" blog, view cast bios and much more on the series' web site: www.prettytheseries.com.
