There’s good news for fans of Lifetime’s summer series Drop Dead Diva. Lifetime has ordered thirteen new episodes of the series, which follows a shallow model-wannabe who dies and gets sent back to earth in the body of a plus-size attorney.
The Hollywood Reporter posted the news, stating that the new season will premiere in 2010. To be perfectly honest, I hadn’t even heard of this show until I saw this little bit of news but after reading the description for the first season, it actually sounds really good and worth checking out.
“The show tells the story of a beautiful-but-vapid model wannabe, Deb, who has a fatal car accident and suddenly finds herself in front of Heaven's gatekeeper, Fred, who declares her a self-centered "zero." Outraged, Deb attempts to persuade Fred to return her to her shallow existence but is accidentally relegated to the body of the recently deceased Jane Bingum (Brooke Elliott). A brilliant, thoughtful and plus-size attorney with a loyal assistant (Margaret Cho), Jane has always lived in the shadow of her more comely colleagues, whereas Deb has always relied on her external beauty. Now, by a twist of fate and a bolt of divine intervention, Deb must come to terms with inhabiting Jane’s plus-size frame and learn to reconcile her beauty queen ways with her brilliant new mind.”
