Bounty of new programs come to prime-time TV

PROJECT GARY — is a comedy about Gary Barnes (Jay Mohr), a recently single painting contractor, and his controlling ex-wife, Allison (Paula Marshall, not shown), who face post-divorce mayhem after 15 years of marriage as they each embark on new relationships. Together, they share custody of their two children - Louise, a politically correct and environmentally conscious 11-year-old, and Tom, their socially awkward 14-year-old son who is nervous around girls. Charming and acerbic, Gary hasn't dated since the split, but finally connects with Vanessa (Jaime King ), a single mother whose condo he was hired to paint. PROJECT GARY will be broadcast Wednesdays (8:30-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Photo: Monty Brinton/CBS ©2008 CBS Broadcasting Inc. All Rights Reserved.
