PRODUCTION HAS BEGUN ON �GREG BEHRENDT�S WAKE-UP CALL,� A ONE-HOUR WEEKLY REALITY SERIES COMING MIDSEASON TO ABC

Production has begun on �Greg Behrendt�s Wake-Up Call,� a one-hour weekly reality series in which Greg Behrendt, acclaimed author of He�s Just Not That Into You, will address one couple�s major issues and use his knowledge of relationships to give them the tools to fix theirs. Through his off-the-cuff comedy and bruised-and-battered romantic experience, Greg takes a close look from a different angle to give our couple advice from a friend, but also that of sage wisdom. �Greg Behrendt�s Wake-Up Call� will air midseason on the ABC Television Network.

Behrendt has co-authored two best selling books, He�s Just Not Than Into You and the recently released It�s Called a Break-Up Because It�s Broken. This fall he will also host his own syndicated talk show for Sony Pictures Television. Based in Los Angeles, Behrendt was a consultant for three consecutive seasons on HBO�s �Sex and the City,� bringing his original male point-of-view to the writing staff. His acclaimed standup comedy has been seen on HBO, �The Tonight Show,� �Late Show with David Letterman,� �Late Night with Conan O�Brien� and Comedy Central.

�Greg Behrendt�s Wake-Up Call� is produced by Avalon Television Inc. Executive producers are Greg Behrendt, David Martin, Julie James, Jon Thoday, Richard Allen-Turner and James Bruce. Co-executive producer is Katherine Hall, and Tommy Calabrese is the executive in charge of production. Co-creators Garth Holsinger and Jason Irwin also serve as producers.
