Kirkland Baker to join 'Housewives'
"Frasier" has become the preferred source of writing-producing talent for ABC's "Desperate Housewives".
"Frasier" alum Lori Kirkland Baker will come aboard the ABC TV Studio-produced soapy dramedy next season as a co-executive producer. She joins fellow "Frasier" alums Anne Flett-Giordano and Chuck Ranberg, who also will serve as co-exec producers on "Housewives" next season. Former "Frasier" executive producer/co-showrunner Joe Keenan served as an executive producer on the campy one-hour series this season.
Meanwhile, Michael Pavone has joined Lifetime's upcoming series "Side Order of Life" as an executive producer.
"Side Order", produced by the Jinks/Cohen Co. in association with Warner Horizon Television, is described as a quirky, thought-provoking, comedic drama centering on a young magazine photographer (Marisa Coughlan) who suddenly re-evaluates her life and impending nuptials after learning some life-altering news. Filmed in Los Angeles, the series also stars Jason Priestley, Christopher Gartin and Diana-Maria Riva. It's set to debut in July.
Dan Jinks and Bruce Cohen of Jinks/Cohen also are executive producing. Margaret Nagle created the series and serves as co-executive producer.
