Sorry but to me, Kristen seems to be "aging" faster than the others!)

I love KC, but she is six years older than Leslie Bibb, who is supposed to be the same age. Kristen is really thin and as you age, your face tends to hollow out a bit anyway, compared to the fuller cheeks that younger people have (hence the reason why all these nitwits are getting those really generic looking cheek implants, which don't look natural at all). She's also pretty tan (looks like it's from the sun), which we all know ages your skin.

I'm really surprised that they seemed to play up Kristen's petite body structure. She's only 4'11", and just about everything else I have seen her in, she's been in crazy heels to make her look more homogenous in height. She seemed crazy short compared to all of the other characters, even when the scene showed her in some tall wedges.

The show was entertaining enough, but it needs to be careful of developing caricatures instead of characters.

And I believe that "GCB" stands for "Good Christian Bitches".

I think that's just for the show, but it accentuates how thin she is.

Hmm....no one has mentioned what sorority their character is in yet! Maybe next week's episode

This show's title was changed to "Good Christian Belles" before it aired (according to Wiki).

I didn't get to watch but I ADORE the Cheno! I'll catch it on Hulu or something.

It's the kind of concept I tend to think can work better with the British-style series -- where there's no expectation of the show going on indefinitely, but instead there's a story arc that runs through a predetermined number of episodes and then it's done.

But anything that has Annie Potts and Kristin Chenowith in roles like this is great.

I enjoyed the show, but definitely agree with the above criticisms. I'm interested to see where it goes.

I was totally thinking this. I vaguely remember someone here posting an article from Texas Magazine from the '70s talking about the personalities of the top groups in Texas. I'm sure we could guess from that article.
