Have you heard of Bunheads? It's the newest TV show created by Amy Sherman-Palladino (creator of Gilmore Girls).
Basically, the plot follows Michelle, who is a Vegas showdancer but has all the proper training for a professional ballet dancer. She made a few bad life decisions, and now she doesn't like where she is in life. She has a drunken night and marries her stalker, who is creepy at first but sweet in the end. He takes her to his hometown, called Paradise--seriously--and introduces Michelle to his mother (played by Mrs. Gilmore herself!). The mother runs a ballet academy out of her own studio, where four young ballerinas take classes.
If you liked Gilmore, you'll like this. I watched the pilot and was quite impressed. It has the snappy, witty dialogue of Gilmore, and I really like Sutton Foster (who plays Michelle). She pulls off Michelle's sarcasm with a lot of heart.
Anyway, here's the trailer. Check out the series on Hulu (or ABC Family) and let me know what you think! :)
