BEST
6. DIRTY SEXY MONEY (ABC)
DSM is like an endless, frothy cocktail hour, with members of the theatrical billionaire Darling clan swanning in and out of sunrooms and penthouses, as their sensible lawyer Nick (a perfectly chagrined Peter Krause) follows behind, tidying up. The drama's ensemble actors have a flair for the madcap: Natalie Zea plays socialite Karen Darling as a sexy, flighty new-millennium Carole Lombard; Glenn Fitzgerald snazzes up his man of the cloth with the angry go-go gestures of a Wall Street trader. In the end, the central mystery of who killed Nick's dad is the least of the intrigues. What's more amusing is the mass-scale mischief money allows.
