DIRTY, SEXY, MONEY by Craig Wright (ABC TV Studios/Berlanti) ; This show tested very well. The stars were easily recognizable for the audience.

Stars? What is this about? Reality show? Game show?

---

It's an hour-long drama from ABC, easily one of the most ambitious, talked-about new pilots in development. Executive produced by Craig Wright ("Six Feet Under"), Bryan Singer, and Greg Berlanti ("Brothers & Sisters").

Stars Peter Krause, Donald Sutherland, Jill Clayburgh, William Baldwin, Samaire Armstrong, and many others.

Premise (from Futon Critic):
Power, privilege and family money are a volatile cocktail. Living proof: The Darlings of New York City, so absurdly wealthy they put the "upper" in Upper East Side. This preeminent family's five spoiled adult brats one of them a Presidential candidate are always getting mixed up with the wrong people, including freeloading spouses, illegal immigrants and transvestite hookers. It will take a miracle to keep this Kennedy-esque clan out of the tabloids and out of jail. That miracle comes in the form of Nick George. As a boy, Nick watched his father surrender his freedom and family as the Darling's trusted consigliere. Burned by his own boyhood encounters with the family, Nick did a 180 and became a lawyer for the disadvantaged. But the passing of his dad thrusts the daunting responsibility of protecting the Darlings' secrets onto Nick. When the family's patriarch offers him an ungodly salary, Nick isn't sure if it's the chance of a lifetime - or a life sentence. In no time, he finds himself racing to plead with cops, hush the tabloids and furiously try to wipe the mud off the esteemed Darling reputation. With new disasters every week, hopefully Nick has the stamina for a marathon. Three-time Emmy(R) nominee Peter Krause ("Six Feet Under," "Sports Night"), Emmy(R) winner Donald Sutherland, and two-time Oscar(R) nominee Jill Clayburgh ("Ally McBeal," Starting Over, An Unmarried Woman) star in this younger, sexier, redheaded stepchild of Dallas and Dynasty. Emmy(R) and Pulitzer(R) nominated Craig Wright ("Brothers & Sisters," "Lost," "Six Feet Under") and executive producer Greg Berlanti ("Brothers & Sisters," "Everwood") use over-the-top situations and razor-sharp satire to illustrate how scads of money can create a great American family... and demolish it.
