Carol Burnett joins Kristen Wiig and Alison Janney in the colourful soap Palm Royale, which is based on the best-selling book Mr & Mrs American Pie.

, it’s clear there’s a lot more going on that acting. The frames look hand-painted in bright primary colours. And the dialogue has a wildly musical style, rhythmically bouncing from scene to scene.

“These actors” include Kristen Wiig as Maxine, a socially ambitious woman wanting to break into the Palm Beach social set in the late 1960s, Allison Janney, who plays Evelyn, Palm Beach’s reigning society queen, and television legend Carol Burnett, who plays Norma, Maxine’s mother-in-law, one of Palm Beach’s grand dames.

“The world is so delicious and all of these people are so delicious that we could spend three hours an episode with them and be still wildly entertained,” Sylvia says. The decision was ultimately shaped by the fact Wiig has a range that pushed the concept into more layered storytelling.“Kristen is a once-in-a-generation talent who can thread the loop between comedy and silliness, and then break your heart in the next moment,” Sylvia says.

“We wound up doing an original musical comedy revue every week, we had a 28-piece orchestra, we had 65 to 70 costumes a week, no network would let us do that now with that kind of money. I feel very fortunate that is incredible, the scenery and all, and then with all the costumes, it’s better than any great, big motion picture that you would see. It is eye candy.
