Just saw a pre-release page on amazon for the WB's short-lived Grosse Pointe series DVD release. For fans of the WB, the series producers got away with an amazingly barbed, witty skewering of the network and its zany practices.
Not being an industry insider, I have no idea how accurate all these goings-on were in terms of life on the set of the typical WB series, but what makes this so watchable is the funny writing and the great ensemble cast (including adorable Kyle Howard). Darren Star was the series creator and wrote a few of the scripts, I think, and it helps that the opening credits feature the terrific Tom Jones song, "Sex Bomb."
