'Hot In Cleveland' Ladies Talk Season 2, Guest Stars & Reviving the Classic Sitcom (VIDEO)

by Maggie Furlong, posted Dec 16th 2010 4:30PM



Hot in ClevelandAn original show on TV Land? And now it's boasting SAG Awards nominations? 'Hot In Cleveland' is the little engine that could in the TV landscape, thanks in large part to an unparalleled year for star Betty White.

But don't discount the draw of White's three fabulously funny costars, Valerie Bertinelli, Wendie Malick and Jane Leeves -- as Malick points out, "the combined number of years we've been doing comedy is like 165." I didn't double-check her math or anything, but with 'The Mary Tyler Moore Show,' 'The Golden Girls,' 'One Day At a Time,' 'Just Shoot Me,' 'Frasier' and more on their collective resumes, you really can't argue with that.

I visited the L.A. set of 'Hot In Cleveland,' where they tape in front of a live studio audience, to chat with the ladies about reviving the classic sitcom, having a career in Hollywood well after your 40s, what's ahead for Season 2 (premieres Wed., Jan. 19, 10PM ET), big guest stars from their TV pasts and more.

Such a well-written show, yields a half hour of great laughs. Wish it were on for one hour, the 1/2 hour goes too quickly.

Terrific show! I think the producers should do at least some of the shows on location in Cleveland. . . in the hotter months.

Love Hot in Cleveland and cannot wait for the new season to start next month. The ensemble cast is so good and their guest stars only add to the show being so funny. The ladies Betty, Valerie, Jane and Wendy are absolutely great. TV Land station should be so proud of their achievement in getting this show....

I usually don't watch any new shows, but Hot in Cleveland is so funny, I could watch it over and over again. All the women on the show are great and I hope the show lasts a long time.
