Campus Ladies
On Sunday, January 8, the Oxygen Network is premiering a new "improvised sitcom" -- Campus Ladies. The show stars Carrie Aizley and Christen Sussin playing characters they developed while at The Groundlings. The show followed two middle-aged ladies who decide to go back to college (the fictious University of the Mid-West). The shows are improvised by the actors. Cheryl Hines (also a producer of Curb Your
Enthusiasm), Executive Producer, says “Through improvisation, the actors make the characters deeper and more loveable. You can hear the voice of the actor, rather than the voice of the writers.”
The show is scheduled to run for 10 episodes and will feature guest stars like Fred Willard (Best in Show and Everybody Loves Raymond), Maya Rudolph (Saturday Night Live), Paul Reubens (Pee-Wee’s Playhouse), Anthony Anderson (Barbershop), Will Forte (Saturday Night Live), Dan Castellenetta (The Simpsons), Jane Kaczmarek (Malcolm in the Middle) and Justin Long (Dodgeball and Ed).
Oxygen is running a promotion where they're giving away a free bottle of Hot Nude Lady shower gel (it's a joke from the first episode) to anyone who wants one (while supplies last).
