Well, like I said when I first posted on this last month, the British original is a campy, trashy show full of sex and twisted people--lke something on HBO. Lots of nudity, group sex, etc. They'll have to clean all that up to broadcast on ABC, so I wonder if it'll be the same? Some shows just *have* to be tasteless to work!

ELDREDGE | Friday, March 16, 2007, 01:31 AM The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Before Dallas Austin Foundation gala attendee Gabrielle Union blew out of town this week, we managed to get some scoop from the actress on the pressing commitments back in Hollywood that cut her Atlanta visit short. Union disclosed that shes been cast in the currently shooting pilot of Football Wives, the U.S. version of Footballers Wives, the hit U.K. soap. And in terms of casting, the upcoming ABC prime-time soap has a chance to be the networks next Brothers and Sisters. In addition to Union, the cast includes Idlewild actor Ving Rhames, Dawsons Creek grad James Van Der Beek, Xena actress Lucy Lawless, Invasion actor Eddie Cibrian, Love, Inc. actress Holly Robinson Peete and Unions Daddys Little Girls co-star Brian J. White. My characters name is Chardonnay Lane, and shes not the nicest girl around, Union told us, flashing a big smile. Shes a pop star on her way up, and for a girl from Nebraska, shes really fun to play! Ive joked on set that I also go by Pinot Grigio. Union also has fond memories of shooting Atlanta director-writer Tyler Perrys Daddys Little Girls here last year. Of the recently released flick that underperformed at the box office, Union cracked to the assembled media, And Im sure everyone saw that movie, right? While in town, Union said her haunts included Justins, the Atlanta Fish Market, Two Urban Licks and Atlantic Station. I pretty much blew my per diem at all those boutiques at Atlantic Station, too! she disclosed. And her favorite Atlanta eatery? Any place that serves biscuits, basically! she replied.
