In Girls Club, a new Fox drama from David E. Kelley (Ally McBeal, The Practice), three young female attorneys, roommates and best friends since law school, contend with the "boys' club" atmosphere (get it?) of a conservative San Francisco law firm. Kelley, who maintains that women are "the superior sex," is working on familiar ground here, but his camp insists that Girls isn't a mere McBeal remake. "This show is much more reality-based," says co–executive producer Jack Bender. "I'm hoping it will give women in their mid-twenties a mirror and a voice, even though the mirror will be a little bent at times, because it's David's voice."
