Drop dead diva comes to Living!

New show starring plus size actress Brooke Elliott

Drop Dead Diva, a smash in the US, is Living’s new prime time show this April.

It tells the story of Deb, a skinny blonde airhead, who is killed in a car crash and manages to get sent back to Earth in the body of Jane (Elliott) who is a US size 16 smart lawyer.   Jane has an amazing legal brain but is insecure with low self-esteem, so Deb brings some of her cool confidence to Jane’s character (confused yet?!)

I don’t know if the show will be any good, but just to see a plus size actress in the leading role of a prime time show makes it worth watching.

Coming to Living this April.
