Poor Debra Messing! She killed it in ratings when The Starter Wife was a mini-series, but once it became an actual series USA just didn’t get the numbers they’d hoped for…so they’ve officially pulled the plug. I think Will and Grace has been struck by the Friends curse. Think about it: Eric McCormack’s series, Trust Me, isn’t doing too hot, Sean Hayes just had a failed pilot last year, and now Debra Messing…I think the curse has officially set in.

I think they should all just focus on movies from here on out and leave TV with their dignity.

She started playing soccer at the age of 4, and continued playing through college where she majored in Biology, but quickly realized her destiny was to tell jokes, not to wear a lab coat. So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio. Nadine’s TV, Radio, Writing credits include: national commercials, talking head roles on E! Entertainment, Showtime’s Hot Tamales Live, The Skinny: Fat Free News, The Sunny Side of The Truth: Real World Hollywood, TVgasm, Zazreport, Daddy’s Girls, Jerseylicious, celebrity interviews on Mania TV, a weekly half-hour television show that syndicates to colleges across the country for National Lampoon and a nightly radio show on XM Satellite Radio.

    I really enjoyed The Starter Wife mini-series where they had her character find love with the cute homeless guy. Then in the first few minutes of the series they undid everything the mini accomplished and that irked me to no end.

    But – I really do like Trust Me – I hope they give it a fair chance to find it’s footing.

    I enjoyed The Starter Wife only because I love me some Debra Messing. I think she saved it from being flat-out horrible. Well, her and Judy Davis. I also thought she was hilarious in The Women. Unfortunately, The Wedding Date was, shall we say, sucktastic.

    She’s a gorgeous, talented lady who will always land on her feet – she just needs the right vehicle. And I was sad when Megan’s talk show was cancelled (you should youtube the vid of her and Debra Messing singing and dancing – it’s so cute!), but I’m looking forward to her new one. Never saw Sean’s show, but it seemed doomed from the get-go. I hope Eric’s show gets a chance – he’s the only one from Will & Grace I’m really worried about.
