Mourning the show that wasn't: the US version of "Footballers' Wives"
I had been looking forward to ABC's version of one of my favorite guilty pleasures from the U.K.: "Footballers Wives." But the sbow did not make the network's fall schedule despite a cast that included the oh-so-sexy Eddie Cibrian and James Van Der Beek.
Fortunately, the blog Ohlala.com posted these pics from the pilot today. I am particularly fond of the one below:
Greg Hernandez has covered the entertainment industry for the Daily
News since 2001. He's considered a bit odd by some for his obsession
with box office numbers, has been known to camp out near the kitchen
at premieres for first crack at the hors d'oeurves, and Greg's never
seen a red carpet he didn't want to stroll down.
