PRODUCTION BEGINS IN LOS ANGELES ON NEW COMEDY SERIES "SAMANTHA WHO?," PREMIERING OCTOBER 15 ON ABC
Released by ABC

Production has begun in Los Angeles on "Samantha Who?," a new comedy starring Christina Applegate that asks the question, what if you had the chance to start over, to do it all again? The series premieres MONDAY, OCTOBER 15 (9:30-10:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

Samantha Newly (Ms. Applegate) has been offered a do-over in life after a hit-and-run accident leaves her in an eight-day coma....

As she sets out to rediscover herself, Sam is forced to rely on the only people who can help her -- an eclectic bunch of friends and family. Although now strangers to Sam, it's not long before she begins to get an idea of who she was before the accident: Regina (Jean Smart, "24," "Designing Women") and Howard (Kevin Dunn, "Transformers," "Dave") appear to be loving parents -- when they're not downplaying the fact that Sam hasn't spoken to them in two years. Her supposed best friend, Dena (Melissa McCarthy, "Gilmore Girls"), is sincerely supportive, until her real best friend, Andrea (Jennifer Esposito, "Crash," "Spin City"), exposes Dena as a fraud who hasn't seen or spoken to Sam since the seventh grade.
