'Pepper Dennis' is a short-lived comedy-drama television series that debuted on The WB on April 4, 2006. Due to somewhat poor ratings, it was quickly announced on May 17, 2006 that Pepper Dennis would not be one of the WB shows that would be transferred to The CW Television Network, and the show's series finale was aired on July 4, 2006.

Pepper Dennis was the final show to premiere on the WB before its transition to the CW network.

The series starred Rebecca Romijn as Pepper Dennis, a television reporter for an evening news broadcast at the fictional television station WEiE (specifically with a small i) in Chicago. The series also starred Rider Strong as Chick, Brooke Burns as Pepper's sister Kathy Dinkle, Lindsay Price as Kimmy Kim, and Josh Hopkins as Charlie Babcock, the station's news anchor. One of the focal points of the show was the love-hate relationship between Pepper and Charlie.

The song used in commercials for the show was the award-winning "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree" by KT Tunstall, and the opening theme song is "Better Half" by Chris Trapper, the former frontman for the Boston pop group Push Stars. Another song that the WB used for advertising "Pepper Dennis" was Morningwood's "Nth Degree" which also appeared in on another WB drama, One Tree Hill.

[edit] Trivia

  • In the episode "Dennis, Bulgari, Big Losers at ACoRNs - Film at Eleven," the news team was talking about Midhare Airport - a portmanteau of O'Hare Airport and Midway Airport on the South Side of Chicago.
  • In the episode "True Love is Dead - Film at Eleven," the bar performer is Chris Trapper, who sings the theme song. He plays his song "Kiss you Where you Lay" from the album "Gone Again."
  • Several of the main characters on the show previously appeared on Boy Meets World, including Rider Strong (Shawn Hunter), Lindsay Price (Linda), and Larisa Oleynik (Dana Pruitt).
  • Ironically, the term Film at Eleven suffixed in the show's episode titles would never be used in Chicago, a Central Time Zone city, as their late television newscasts air at 10 p.m. instead.
