Kim Gatlin, we’re officially in a fight. Sure, it hurts my feelings that you are a good 20 pounds lighter than I am on the best day. Maybe there were a few hard feelings about the fact that you were once married to a Gatlin brother. (I used to have a mad crush on Larry Gatlin in second grade. Sing it with me: “All the gold in California….”) And of course, I harbored a lot of sour grapes about the fact that you not only finished writing a book, you got it published. And now this. According to Perez Hilton and the very smart Robert Wilonsky, Darren Starr, creator of Sex and the City and Melrose Place, has optioned Gatlin’s Good Christian Bitches, and he’s shopping it at all the major networks. Well played, lady. Well played.

There are a lot of very nervous women texting each other in the Park Cities tonight.
So excited about enhancing another nasty Dallas stereotype! But at least the West Coast is paying attention, no?
At least the book won’t need to be edited or abridged for mass-consuption.
Congrats to Kim for going ahead with the project. All the people that loved her when she could help them and couldn’t remember her name when she no longer could, will be looking for their character in the movie. If they are honest they’ll recognize themselves immediately. KUDOS! We could play the Casting game.. hope Kim gets to pick.
Maybe her cousin Angie Harmon will be cast?
I have known Kim for many years….through all kinds of triumphs and griefs….she has always been the same person….loving and kind….no one deserves this more….go get ‘em girl!!! The West coast welcomes you!
Why do you always have to make your posts about you? Some of the D people think they are such hot stuff. We could care less who you had a crush on blah blah blah we care who Kim has a crush on. Duh. She’s the star, not you.
So the other shoe finally dropped, ABC has committed its money to author Kim Harmon Gatlin for the slot following Desperate Housewives.
Well done Kim, I’m lucky enough to know you and so proud of you and the work you’ve done to navigate these times. I wish you all the success
To everyone who doubted you, a raised glass of Dom. SALUTE
