"Miss Guided" Grade: C-
ABC's new sitcom "Miss Guided" is one of a number of shows from the network lately that sound promising but...somehow...miss the mark. Think of "Eli Stone," "Men In Trees," "Big Shots," even "Dirty Sexy Money." (C'mon, I know you want to like it, but really, is it that good?) Nonetheless, in this strange March mid-season, with the writers strike
and NCAA basketball both messing up normal viewing habits, I seem to
have watched four episodes of "Miss Guided" in the last 10 days or so.
Go figure.
Judy Greer stars as high-school guidance counselor Becky Freeley, a "nice" girl who's starting to realize that it's good to be a little bit bad from time to time. That may have to do with the fact that she's closing in on 30 and still single. Cheery and perky, her darker thoughts usually voiced in asides, she could be a winning character, but the show is kooky in mostly predictable ways.
