2008's "Must See TV"


Nothing but positive buzz has surrounded ABC's upcoming dramedy "Brynn 'nn Matt" since last week's announcement that it will join the fall lineup. After having already been slated for 17 episodes, the program is sure to pick up a second season. Its simple premise: young ad executives Matt and Brynn learn, live, and possibly love in the heart of New York City. And with such an enthusiastic following already, industry experts have predicted "B'nn M" to topple such megahits as "Gossip Girl" and "Charlie Rose."

Stars have already started clamoring for guest spots on the show, even though most have no idea of the roles offered.

"I'll be the janitor!" said former American Idol contestant Bo Bice, "No wait, I am a janitor!"

"I'll just play myself, like I always do," said Christopher Walken, Tom Hanks, Adam Sandler, and Will Ferrell.

"I could be a great black friend for Brynn," said Maggie Gyllenhall at a press conference.




A scene from episode 1.6, "To Know Her."

Description: Matt, Eric and Brynn sign up for a kickboxing class to relieve stress. Matt and Brynn wind up having to fight each other because they're both beginners. As they start to carp more and more at the office, all pretext towards civility drops in the ring and their matches in the class increasingly intensify. Eric takes on a new project. Lorraine, meanwhile, debates whether to go to Pax or Delmonico's for lunch. Barry Bonds guest stars.
