Ahhh guys, amazing news!! NBC picked up LOVE BITES! We’re so excited about this! Can’t wait to see Becki in it, it sounds so good, check out the full description below and the first promotional photo in the PhotoGallery!
From Emmy Award-winning writer-producer Cindy Chupack (”Sex and the City”), “Love Bites” is an hour-long romantic comedy anthology series featuring three loosely connected, modern stories of love, sex, marriage and dating. Each episode contains multiple vignettes, all illuminating the theme of love with an edgy, irreverent spin. Becki Newton (”Ugly Betty”) stars as Annie and Jordana Spiro (”My Boys”) stars as Frannie, the last two single girls standing after all of their friends get married. Annie is an infectiously bubbly optimist and Frannie is an always-a-bridesmaid realist. Their story will anchor the series, while other romantically-challenged characters will come and go each week.
The pilot’s guest cast includes Jennifer Love Hewitt (”Ghost Whisperer”), Greg Grunberg (”Heroes”), Craig Robinson (”The Office”), Jason Lewis (”Sex and the City”), Lindsay Price (”Lipstick Jungle”), Larry Wilmore (”The Daily Show”), Charlyne Yi (”Knocked Up”), Pamela Adlon (”Californication”), Stacy Galina (”Hidden Hills”), Brian Hallisay (”Privileged”), Kyle Howard (”My Boys”) and Steve Howey (”Bride Wars”). “Love Bites” is a production of Universal Media Studios and Working Title Television, which is a new division of Working Title Films (the U.K. production company behind box office hits including “Love Actually,” “Bridget Jones’s Diary” and “Four Weddings and a Funeral”). Chupack is creator, executive producer and writer. Emmy Award-winning producer-director Marc Buckland (”My Name Is Earl”) also is executive producer and directs the pilot. Eric Fellner, Tim Bevan and Shelley McCrory from Working Title Television are executive producers. “Love Bites” is Working Title Television’s first U.S. commission.

The Hollywood Reporter has announced that Becki will be starring in a new NBC dramedy called Love Bites. She was given the part of Annie, a social worker and virgin, who’s also a hopeless romantic. Sources say that Love Bites will be some sort of anthology pilot, lasting for an hour. Each episode will consist of three different but related views on love, sex and relationships. That covers marriage and dating as well, which isn’t a surprise. It’s from Cindy Chupack, known for her acclaimed work on Sex and the City. Ugly Betty star Becki Newton will supposedly be appearing in just the first episode of the upcoming series, but there’s still no final word on that. Read more?
