Courtney Cox gets Dirty

Are you an Ugly Betty fan? Then chances are you'll love this! Oh and we all like a dose of Courtney Cox from time to time, now that she's not our FRIEND anymore. Enter the cut-throat world of tabloid journalism, where writers will go to any length to get the scoop to satisfy the hunger of a celebrity-obsessed culture. (Hmmm, sounds familiar? - ed)

Dirt is a brand new, edgy drama, coming soon to all you lucky Showtime subscribers. It promises to exposes the truth behind the façade of show business image making, and reveals the lives of those determined to do so. So... bit like Simple Lives, mixed with Ugly Betty, mixed with a few Friends episodes featuring Joey's eternal struggle with the acting stuff! Sounds good to us.

Here's the essential blurb to get you all excited:

"Dirt, chronicles the life of Lucy Spiller (Courteney Cox), the ruthless, powerful editor-in-chief of the celebrity tabloid magazines Dirt and Now. A genius at the art of manipulation, Lucy possesses a maniacal dedication to exposing the truth about Hollywood's luminaries, for reasons even she has yet to fully fathom. As steadfast photographer Don Konkey (Ian Hart) constantly provides exclusive, shocking pictures of the rich and famous for Lucy's magazines, the glossy, perfect veneer created by Hollywood is shattered - and available on newsstands every week. Dirt exposes the truth behind the façade of show business image making, and reveals the lives of those determined to do so, despite often tragic results."

Oooh er. We predict a fair few nights lost to the sofa instead of Dubai's buzzing social scene? Perhaps?

Tune in to Dirt exclusively on SHOWSERIES 2 from December 27th
