Over the course of the next several weeks, we are going to be taking an extensive look at the sights and sounds both onscreen and onset of the hit TV dramedy series DROP DEAD DIVA - new episodes airing Sunday nights at 9 PM on Lifetime - featuring exclusive interviews with the leading lady divas and dashing supporting men on the LA-based supernatural legal series. Featuring a memorable collection of musical performances and Broadway guest stars over the years - Paula Abdul, Rosie O‘Donnell, Delta Burke and many more included - DROP DEAD DIVA is the quintessential TV series for Broadway babies looking for some laughs and levity - the latter available in many more ways than one, given the show's heavenly aspirations. DROP DEAD DIVA centers on a legal eagle named Jane whose body acts as the means for the indomitable spirit of a model, Deb, who loses her life, to make a second chance and how the girl inside must learn to adjust to looking like the woman on the outside that she is now. In other words, a model finds out what it means to look like everyone else, in a delightfully quirky twist of fate - and learns to be a lawyer, too. Season Three picks up with the cliffhanger car crash that closed last season in a dark and shocking way. What will Grayson remember of the conversation he had with Jane pre-crash? What will Jane do to save him? What about his engagement (to somebody else)? What will happen back at the office with Teri, Kim and Parker? What about Stacy and Fred? All these questions and many more will most assuredly be answered (or beginning to be answered) come Sunday night! Plus, there's always a musical number or two not too far off if you stay tuned!

Today we are continuing out summer series on the TV shows featuring some of the brightest and best talent onscreen and onstage with the first part of BroadwayWorld's series on USA's new primetime network drama NECESSARY ROUGHNESS. Featuring an impressive assortment of players known for roles on screens large and small and stages far and wide, NECESSARY ROUGHNESS was created by Craig Shapiro and Liz Kruger and features Callie Thorne, Marc Blucas, Scott Cohen, Mehcad Brooks and Andrea Anders. The show centers on therapist Dr. Dani Santino (Thorne) and her suddenly crumbling domestic life coming in the wake of her husband's (Craig Bierko) newly discovered affair, just as she enters a new area of expertise in her field and starts taking on the toughest clients of her career - chief among them being star quarterback TK (Brooks). Will her newfound romance with the team's trainer, Matthew (Blucas), and, furthermore, his relationship to TK's team, lead to an unforeseen fumble? And, who exactly is the shadowy figure behind the scenes, Nico (Cohen), and what exactly does he want from Dr. Dani? Plus, how will she balance the roles of therapist, mother and newly-divorced woman on her own for the first time? NECESSARY ROUGHNESS goes in for a cathartic touchdown by bringing together issues from all sides of the field of life and taking them on play-by-play - because, after all, as the tagline goes: 'Everyone has issues to tackle.' Family to football to romance and far beyond, NECESSARY ROUGHNESS is a high-scorer - and, after all, this is only the build-up to the big game, which plays in prime time every Wednesday night at 10 PM on USA.

Fortunately, Toby's has the right Kira in Heather Marie Beck. In her game willingness to clown rather than just be pretty and sound lovely, she reminds me a bit of Cameron Diaz. I will long treasure the memory of her staggering along, one skate on and one skate off, as she doggedly makes her escape from a too-importunate Sonny. Beck may know, and we may know, that the character looks ridiculous, but the character doesn't know; that's real comedy.
