The Playboy Club Aired From September 19, 2011 - October 03, 2011 On NBC
About the Show:
From Academy Award-winning Executive Producer Brian Grazer, The Playboy Club is a provocative new NBC drama about a time and place that challenged the existing social mores and transformed American culture forever. It's the early 1960s, and at the center of Chicago lies the legendary and seductive Playboy Club, a living, breathing fantasy world filled with $1.50 cocktails, music, glitter and of course, beautiful Bunnies. The key to the club, which offers the ultimate in beauty, is the most sought-after status symbol of its time. But all that glitters isn't gold, and in the back rooms and alleys behind the club, life happens - both good and bad.
Nick Dalton (Eddie Cibrian, CSI: Miami, Third Watch) is the ultimate playboy and one of the city's top attorneys, rubbing elbows with everyone in the Windy City's power structure. With mysterious and complicated ties to the mob, he comes to the aid of Maureen (Amber Heard, Zombieland, Pineapple Express), the stunning and innocent new Bunny at the club, who accidentally kills the patriarch of the Bianchi crime family. Dating Nick is Carol-Lynne (Laura Benanti, Take the Lead, Eli Stone), a bombshell of a beauty and an established star at the Playboy Club who's ready to be more than a Bunny. As she seeks an opportunity to elevate her stature even higher at the club, she can't help but notice that something is developing between Nick and Maureen. Adding to the charm of the club is Janie (Jenna Dewan Tatum, American Virgin, Step Up), the foxy and carefree life of the party who is dating Max (Wes Ramsey, CSI: Miami, Dracula's Guest), a sweet and romantic bartender. Brenda (Naturi Naughton, Lottery Ticket, Fame), a stunning beauty with a dry wit, has big aspirations. Bunny Alice (Leah Renee, True Confessions of a Hollywood Starlet) manages to take care of everyone but herself, and while married, is hiding a huge secret from everyone. Pearl (Jenifer Lewis, Strong Medicine, What's Love Got To Do With It) is the club's seamstress who's been there since day one and knows more about what it takes to survive than anyone. Running the club and answering only to the top is general manager Billy Morton (David Krumholtz, Numb3rs, Superbad), who also shares a close friendship with Nick. With all of these larger-than-life ambitions, there are even greater secrets. It's a good thing Hef's Playboy Mansion is open after hours for a little R&R - and burying your past.
In addition to Grazer, executive producers include Chad Hodge (Runaway, Tru Calling), Francie Calfo (Scoundrels), Jason Burns (The House Bunny, The Girls Next Door), Dick Rosenzweig (The House Bunny, The Girls Next Door) and Ian Biederman (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit). Hodge also wrote the pilot, which was directed by Alan Taylor (Mad Men, The Sopranos). The series is produced by 20th Century Fox Television, Imagine Television and Alta Loma Entertainment.
