pegimac I would love it if this show came back on ..I loved it and miss it...people were into it...everyone I know loved it. Great cast, great plots and a story line you don't see much...please revive this fabulous show!! I know that the real attorney was in the judges body when he woke up...I still think about what was going to happen in the next season. So in short, the writing was great, well acted, music good, fashion, make up, and I felt good after each show...could not wait for Sunday night. Drop Dead Diva tee shirt would be nice!

dandan-dandan They need to bring back Jay Parker, hands down, and cut the "original Jane" character, and stop making Stacey make so insanely stupid decisions and being extremely dramatic, like suddenly going on needlessly urgent search for sperm donors to have a baby, sacrificing her relationship with Jane just to briefly hook up with Owen, then for no reason at all making a big deal and breaking up with Owen. It makes me sick to my stomach. Owen's character used to be so in love with Jane, for him to suddenly pick up Stacey and act all natural make it seem unbelievable and audience lose respect of him. You can tell the actor playing Owen (a very good actor) even has a hard time trying to make it seem justifiable! Any self-respecting actor will feel the writing is crap. What a waste of a good cast! If they are doing a sixth season and want to retain followers and attract new viewers, they NEED to do the following: 1) Their most urgent need right now is to bring Parker back and keep Kim around! These two are immensely appealing and drawing actors and characters. They bring depth and charisma to the show. 2) Secondly, make Stacey herself not a crazy friend betraying, sperm-crazy, lunatic mom! 3) last but not least, bring Jane and Grayson together already. It's painful and annoying to watch another episode where the show tries desperately to drag on the suspicion with irrational plots of surprises coming up last minute or interruptions during their confessions. It's not interesting anymore nor suspense. Just plain disturbance and people are losing interest fast. They need to move the show onto new grounds and stop spoiling a fresh idea by lazily adopting old tricks to fool the audience. These writers and producers need to get real and make a honest living, or most viewers will not return. If they follow these suggestions, I think they will find the show more successful. If they don't heed advice from the very people the show's trying to draw, they aren't very smart.

victor After the first two awkward intro-episodes the show really takes on. I LOVED IT until the 4th season: then they put Kim Kardashian and diminished the whole importance of legal staff...Kardashian made everything seem so fake...At the beginning of the second episode with Kardashian I stopped watching the show...They also made too many changes with cast, script...I couldn't get rid of the feeling if I'd been watching Beverly Hills or some MTV crap... Real Jane Bingum will reincarnate?! So stupid...Yes, 10 stars for the first 3 seasons. After that I would rate it much lower...I do wish the best for Brooke Elliott! She's simply stunning!

Ana-Maria Olimpia Raducanu Someone heard the old line about a thin woman trapped in a fat woman's body and took it literally. In "Drop Dead Diva," a Lifetime series that begins on Sunday, an aspiring model and airhead named Deb (Brooke D'Orsay) dies in a car crash and is transported — through a bungled act of divine intervention — to the body of a recently deceased lawyer, Jane (Brooke Elliott), who is smart, fat and frumpy. The trading-places formula is put to use here in a weight-conscious comedy, a "Freaky Friday" mind-body exchange that measures the eternal contest between brains and beauty by the pound.Deb, trapped in a Lane Bryant physique, doesn't lose her own shallow, bubbly personality. When Deb awakens in a hospital bed and discovers that her once-taut stomach is now a pillowy protrusion of flab, she shrieks at her guardian angel, "You sent me to hell?" But she also assumes Jane's high-powered brain and legal expertise. Deb discovers that while she now craves donuts and cheese dip, her mind also savors a complicated and compelling legal case. Basically she thinks like Elle in "Legally Blonde," only she looks like Camryn Manheim on "The Practice."And while the presumption that a woman can be either brainy or beautiful, or in this case, good or thin, but not both, is a bit primitive, the series has humor and charm beneath its facile message, in large part (no disrespect intended) to a subtle, winning performance by Ms. Elliott.It's gotten harder than ever to find an imperfect heroine in a series who is actually flawed. More than ever these days, television suffers from casting dysmorphia; it repeatedly takes a slovenly, gluttonous, character and casts an exquisitely groomed, Pilates-toned actress in the part.One of the running jokes of both "30 Rock" and "The New Adventures of Old Christine" is that the characters played by Tina Fey and Julia Louis-Dreyfus are disarmingly sloppy, out of shape and addicted to junk food — and wine, in the case of Ms. Louis-Dreyfus. It's a strain when both actresses are so petite, pretty and fit.Debra Messing may have started the trompe l'oeil trend in "Will & Grace," since she too was a whippet-thin actress playing a slovenly overeater. But the hypocrisy grows ever more insulting — a cognitive diss. Even TNT, which takes pride in badly behaved heroines — a slatternly sot on "Saving Grace," a sweetsaholic on "The Closer" — assigns those roles to improbably slender, well-preserved actresses like Holly Hunter and Kyra Sedgwick.And when a comedy does feature a female lead who is not conventionally pretty, that becomes the raison d'être of the series, as in "Ugly Betty."
