| Great news! Nicole Richie is BACK. After the cancellation of her hysterically funny VH1 reality show diatribe, Candidly Nicole, the socialite is back on TV in her first scripted role on NBC's Great News. Executive Producer Tina Fey picked her for her “impeccable comedic timing” that you just can't teach people. Nicole plays Portia Scott-Griffith, one of the two main news anchors. She's got 21st century diluted gal power, who's horrendously self absorbed and disconnected from her baby boomer generation costar Chuck Pierce (John Michael Higgins) |  |
Great News centers on the inner workings of a cable news outfit. The main plot centers around one of the producers, conflicts when her aging mother is added to the team as an intern. However, it's the supporting roles that really make the show POP. The show airs every Tuesday, but the season finale is next Tuesday May 23rd. Don't be worried, though. NBC has already green lit a 13 episode 2nd season.
