TV.com summary

Big Day (originally titled A Day In The Life) is an American situation comedy that began airing on ABC on November 28, 2006. The series is co-produced Josh Goldsmith and Cathy Yuspa and directed by Michael Spiller for Sony Pictures Television. In Canada the series will air on CanWest's Global and CH stations.

Originally, it was supposed to debut on October 5, 2006, along with Notes from the Underbelly, but ABC made a last-minute change in its schedule by moving Ugly Betty to Thursday, thus replacing both sitcoms whose "buzz" has not been promising.

Big Day was broadcast on Tuesdays at 9:00/8:00c. The timeslot was supposed to be filled by another new sitcom that had a better "buzz," The Knights of Prosperity, but ABC moved that program to Wednesdays to make Big Day a priority.

According to the ratings, Big Day turned out to be a very big disappointment.^[1]

Big Day ended its first season on January 30, 2007. ^[2] Only 12 of the 13 produced episodes aired and it is unknown if and when the 13th episode titled The $10,000 Gift will air. It is also unknown whether or not the show will return for a second season, but it seems impossible because of its poor ratings.

[edit] Synopsis

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Big Day follows a major event in a couples' life — the big wedding day — during the course of one day from all angles, and the people involved (similar to 24), ranging from the maid of honor who accidentally drinks the contacts of the best man whom she slept with, to the bride's father, who's opposed to the union and will stop at nothing to throw a wrench into the plans.

All of these events and other obstacles are part of the ultimate test that Danny and Alice will have to face before they walk down the aisle and say their I Do's...unless someone should stand up and ask why this couple should not be joined together in holy matrimony.

Spoilers end here.
