Lil's Top Three Favorite New Mom Shows!
Set your DVR or put the kids to bed early so you can turn on the boob tube and enjoy some mom-me time watching LilSugar's three favorite new mom shows! After hearing all the hype about the networks' most anticipated sitcoms and dramas that centered around matriarchs, we tuned in and then narrowed down the choices to our top three must sees. Check out our picks!
The Good Wife Is a Must Watch for Mothers
To say that Alicia Florrick from CBS's new show is The Good Wife is an understatement. After her politician husband Peter (Chris Noth) is embroiled in a sex scandal, she publicly appears with him. We've all wondered why real-life women like Elizabeth Edwards and Silda Spitzer stood by their men despite being humiliated.
CBS's Accidentally on Purpose Pales in Comparison to Book
Mary Pols's Accidentally on Purpose made me laugh, cry, and relate. I rooted for the 39-year-old film critic and her baby daddy, Matt, as I read the author's witty account of her unplanned journey into motherhood. Considering the book to be the mama of all pregnancy must reads, I even gifted it to several expecting friends.
Anticipating Tonight's Premiere of Accidentally On Purpose!
When I read Accidentally On Purpose, Mary Pols' honest and witty text transcended typical mommy lit and unfolded like the best movie I'd ever seen —little did I know it would hit the small screen! Tonight CBS premieres its sitcom based on the autobiographical book by the 39-year-old film critic who got pregnant during a one-night stand with a man 10 years her junior. I'm excited to see how the network and cast (which stars Jenna Elfman and British actress Ashley Jensen, who recently chatted with BuzzSugar) adapt the story of the couple who forged a friendship with benefits as they prepared to raise their child together into episodes.

Serve one up for all of the mothers out there. The decision to return to work after the birth of a baby can be hard. For professional athletes, the preparation requires more than just emotional strength but physical preparation.
Television's Hottest Expectant Ladies
It may be hard to top hot dog eating contests and faux pregnancies, but the networks are going to have to find a way to come up with more clever pregnancy fodder to inject into their story lines with the number of network ladies firing up buns in their ovens. ABC has quite a few expectant mamas in its lineup while NBC, CBS, and Lifetime aren't too far behind in the baby bump race. Tiffani Thiessen plans to put parenthood on hold since she's signed on to a new show, but she may find inspiration in these fuller tummied leading ladies.

In the Motherhood Canceled, What Went Wrong?
The realities of parenthood and raising baby are funny in their own right, so why do sitcom producers feel the need take them over the top? ABC's Notes From the Underbelly focused on the "ooh's," "ahhs," and "ails" of pregnancy, but in such an overdone manner that I found myself reaching for the remote. Then, the same network launched another promising show which incorporated the experiences of real women and featured a manny and single mothers.
