TV Tonight: "The Wedding Bells"

BuzzSugar — Wed, 07 Mar 2007 12:30:38 PST

From "Ally McBeal" to "The Practice" to "Boston Legal," nobody knows the formula for a television hit quite like David E. Kelley. And that's exactly why I'm both anticipating and dreading tonight's premiere of "The Wedding Bells," Kelley's latest creation. Kelley's built a career on one-dimensional, stereotypical characters who get themselves into one wacky situation after another while learning Meaningful Lessons about Life, and I'm afraid "Wedding Bells" looks like more of the same.

My reservations start with the title: See, they're wedding planners, and their last name is Bell! The Wedding Bells! Yuk-yuk! The clips I've seen stay close to the standard wedding cliches of run-away brides and overly demanding mothers. Add in the "twist" that the Bells themselves are still looking for love, and it starts to sound like a cloying, cutesy nightmare. (To see the clips for yourself, go to the show's site and click the link for video.) Or, to watch an extended preview that made me laugh several times,

What gives me hope is that when Kelley's stuff is on, it's on - and weddings could be the perfect setting for the kind of dramedy he does best. Plus, I'm excited to see Teri Polo, whom I first noticed as the lawyer Dan Rydell obsessed over in "Sports Night," in a starring role. "The Wedding Bells" airs after "American Idol" tonight before moving into its regular Friday time slot.

Adrianne Palicki Shows Off Her New Wonder Woman Costume

Adrianne Palicki sprung into action on the set of Wonder Woman in LA last night. She was showing off a different suit than the one we saw a couple of weeks ago, and the costume was apparently toned down since fans weren't digging all that shiny spandex. Personally, I'm liking this new version much better, though we'll have to wait until next Fall to see Palicki on the small screen (assuming David E. Kelley's pilot is picked up, that is). In the meantime, you can vote on which superhero movie you're most excited to see!

Adrianne Palicki Is TV's New Wonder Woman

Adrianne Palicki's latest turn on TV may not have lasted long (R.I.P. Lone Star!), but the Friday Night Lights actress is about to burst on to the small screen again in a big way.

Palicki has been cast in the coveted role on NBC's new Wonder Woman. The David E. Kelley series will reportedly follow the DC comic heroine as she tries to balance her superhero fighter persona with her real-life job as a successful corporate exec. The majority of you said you're excited for the reboot, so what do you think - is Palicki a good fit for the Amazonian princess?
