What are the perils of an asparagus diet? What is the Cool Cup supposed to cool? And what on earth does The Music Man have to do with it all? Die-hard Ally McBeal fans will find the answers to these questions and more in Ally McBeal: The Official Guide. The book is packed with photos, quotes, interviews with David E. Kelley and the cast, and even a listing of the songs used in each episode. Newcomers to the show who want to know what in the hell their friends are talking about at the water cooler will also find The Official Guide useful--profiles of all the main characters and a complete episode guide should get neophytes right up to speed. Most interesting are the behind-the-scenes glimpses: cast members plop into each other's laps for between-take chats, and the members of the special effects crew figure out how to make a remote-controlled briefcase in only three days. Offering entertaining insight into both the interior and exterior workings of a bizarre little television world, Ally addicts will be delighted with this reverent and exhaustive guide to their favorite show. --Ali Davis

YA-For true Ally McBeal aficionados, this official guide has enough information and pictures to make their tongues hang out as long as Elaine and Georgia's did when they met Bobby Donnel in episode 123. The book begins with profiles of each character in the ensemble and then offers a biographical sketch and sometimes an interview with the actors who play the parts. Each actor's film, television, and theater credits are included. The plots from each episode of the first two seasons are evaluated. Each episode is well illustrated with color photographs from the show. A song list from each airing is also included. Sandwiched between the episodes are a list of McBealisms, Fishisms, an A-to-Z guide to catchwords and key phrases, a guide to Elaine's inventions, a list of the love triangles, and an Ally passionmeter. The book concludes with a list of the show's awards. Appelo doesn't discuss the controversy over Calista Flockhart's weight, but true fans will require Dr. Tracy Clark's counseling to tear themselves away from this guide.
