The Pussycat Dolls

NBC Schedules Its First '1MM'
By Brian Ford Sullivan

CHICAGO (thefutoncritic.com) -- "The Pussycat Dolls," the first of NBC's one-minute movies (or "1MMs" for short), is scheduled to premiere on Thursday, September 25 during the season premiere of "Will & Grace" (8:48-9:27 p.m. eastern).

"Dolls" is one of a half-dozen or so planned miniature movies designed to grab the audience's attention during the network's commercial breaks. Each movie will air as two 30-second parts, the first of which has a cliffhanger leading into the next. "1MMs" are the brainchild of John Wells Productions and Emmy Award-winning director Paris Barclay ("N.Y.P.D. Blue"). The idea is to assemble some of Hollywood's brightest creative talent both on screen and off for a quick and fresh concept.

Written by Joe Voci & Steven Antin and directed by the latter, "Dolls" features Carmen Electra ("Baywatch") as she "dons her rhinestone-studded costume as one of the famed "Pussycat Dolls" performers who seeks to exchange her shiny suit's stones for a bag of diamonds that could prove to be any girl's best friend."

Fun facts:  For those of you who remember Young Americans, Steven Antin was the Creator and Co-Executive Producer of YA and Joe Voci was the Executive Producer.  The creator of The Pussycat Dolls is Robin Antin - Steve's sister!
