Grand

I've been wondering when actress Bonnie Hunt was going to return to television. She's had several short-lived sitcoms (all rather good and different - Grand, The Bonnie Hunt Show, Life with Bonnie, The Building) and beyond her movie work (Cars, Cheaper By The Dozen) I heard she had also signed a deal to create another comedy show.

But that's not going to happen anytime soon, because Hunt has just signed a two-year deal for her own talk daytime talk show. The show will premiere in syndication in the fall of 2008 on NBC stations.

This is the second edition of this column where we share with you some of those shows that were gone from the airwaves too soon, and, oddly enough, today's show also had Bonnie Hunt in it, not to mention the writing of Simpsons scribe Frank Mula. It's all coincidence, I can assure you. Although, I must say that despite being very funny and talented Bonnie Hunt's not exactly a lucky rabbit's foot when it comes to sitcoms.
