The Dirt on Courteney Cox
12/12/06 02:02 PM
Imagery is important in selling a new
TV series, particularly when the star is so
associated with an old TV series that's still
prospering in reruns. In that context, the FX cable
network has done an eye-popping job of repositioning
former Friends stalwart Courteney Cox as
tabloid editor Lucy Spiller in Dirt, which
premieres on Jan. 2nd.
Her new character "has a maniacal dedication to finding the truth, for reasons even she has yet to fully fathom," says FX in a spanking new press packet. "With the help of a schizophrenic paparazzo blessed with a genius for getting the money shot, Lucy exposes the hidden truth behind celebrity lives -- and also determines their fate."
Well now, that's quite a segue from playing Monica Geller Bing for a decade on NBCs most popular comedy. But times change. And so, submitted for your approval, we bring you the new Courteney Cox.
