Getting a soundtrack for this show should be easy because the other guy from the Moldy Peaches should be available.

Let's hope he has a talent for treacly, vaguely Christian pop songs.

There's a line in there about eating garlic to be no longer Satanic, so I think we can give that one a yes.

Ugh. Horrible.

I'm happy some good shows are coming back though. Yay for new episodes of things I like.

I found this item after following beppergirl's link to this other post detailing expectations for what shows will be returning now that the strike is over.

Wuh? What link of mine?

I don't know how you would ever get more than one season out of the concept. Unless the main character (we'll call her "Hera") somehow stays in the baby's life, learning very special lessons about love and womanly virtue.
