Watching Ellie is an American television sitcom that stars Julia Louis-Dreyfus and was created by her husband, Brad Hall and aired on NBC from February 26, 2002, to May 20, 2003. Sixteen episodes were broadcast before it was canceled due to low ratings, the show received mixed reviews.
Premise and formats
There were two incarnations of Watching Ellie. Both focused on the character of cabaret singer Ellie Riggs (Louis-Dreyfus), with markedly different approaches.
The first was directed by Ken Kwapis, known for his innovative work in single-camera sitcoms such as The Larry Sanders Show, Malcolm in the Middle and The Bernie Mac Show. Each 22-minute episode was meant to portray a 22-minute slice of Ellie's life, in real time. In the earliest episodes, a clock was even shown in the corner of the screen. Louis-Dreyfus stated in 2003 that the clock was Jeff Zucker's idea. Thirteen episodes were filmed, but only ten aired before the series was put on indefinite hiatus (the remaining first-season episodes have never aired).
Nearly a full year later, the show reappeared as a more traditional sitcom, with multiple cameras and a live studio audience plus an added laugh track. This version fared even worse than its predecessor and was canceled after six episodes.
Cast
- Julia Louis-Dreyfus – Ellie Riggs
- Lauren Bowles – Susan
- Steve Carell – Edgar
- Darren Boyd – Ben
- Peter Stormare – Ingvar
- Don Lake – Dr. Zimmerman
Production
Louis-Dreyfus and Hall earned salaries of $350,000 each per episode and their contracts stipulated 15 episodes per season, rather than the usual 22. Carsey-Werner-Mandabach Productions, the original production company, dropped out because of the high costs and was replaced by NBC Studios.[1]
The show was pitched to ABC, CBS, Fox and HBO, who all turned down the series.[2]
Louis-Dreyfus and Bowles played sisters and they are also half-sisters in real life.
Episodes
Season 1 (2002)
Season 2 (2003)
