BBC hit comedy series “Beautiful People” and “Jeffery and Cole Casserole” returns for the second season on Logo.
Logo’s summer special series are as follows:
“THE JAQUIE BROWN DIARIES” (U.S. Series Premiere, 6 episodes – 30 minutes) Premieres Saturday, June 12, 2010 at 10:30/9:30c
Combine the outrageousness of “Absolutely Fabulous” with the status-obsessed Kathy Griffin and you get Jaquie Brown, the self-absorbed reporter fixated on milking every ounce of fame she can out of her small town field reporter job. With the help of her morally bankrupt publicist, Jaquie tries to claw her way to the top of the local news media scene, ignoring everyone she tramples on her way. But when a Bollywood beauty, whose quirky journalistic style is strikingly similar to Jaquie’s, steals her thunder, Jaquie does everything in her power to bring her down. This comedy series takes a satirical look at the life of a C-list, local celebrity as Jaquie Brown bucks the system, romancing and diva-stomping her way up the ladder of popularity.
“BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE” (Returning Series, 6 episodes – 30 Minutes) Premieres Saturday, June 12, 2010 at 10/9c
Inspired by the eccentric childhood of style guru Simon Doonan growing up in the suburbs of working class Reading in England, the critically-acclaimed and award-winning comedy series is executive produced by Jon Plowman (“Absolutely Fabulous”). The series returns with its star-studded cast including Olivia Colman (“That Mitchell and Webb Look”), Meera Syal, Aidan McArdle and Samuel Barnett (“The History Boys”). It also brings together youngsters Luke Ward-Wilkinson and Layton Williams who steal the screen as the teenage Simon and his best friend Kyle – better known as “Kylie.”
In the new season, Simon recalls a simpler time when boy bands topped the charts and Britney was still a wholesome pop star. Unexpected twists and turns come to Reading as The Doonans receive a visit from the Virgin Mary, meet their new gay neighbors, Kylie’s dad arrives in Reading and Simon reveals his secret crush. The season features guest appearances from Dannii Minogue, Broadway star Elaine Paige and famous transgender pop singer and winner of the 1998 Eurovision Song Contest Dana International.
