&lt;p&gt;Rejoice, ladies and gentlemen&amp;mdash;the moment we&#39;ve all been waiting for has finally arrived!  In a stunning newsbreak, Showtime announced yesterday that &lt;em&gt;House of Lies&lt;/em&gt;, the hottest management consulting television drama ever to grace the digital cable box, will air as a full series after the pilot was deemed a success.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;How hot, you say?  Showtime bills the new blockbuster as &quot;a scathing look at a self-loathing management consultant from a top-tier firm.&quot;  If that isn&#39;t hot enough for you, well, you probably drank too many Four Lokos this morning.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;border: 1px solid black; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;&quot; src=&quot;http://www.vault.com/VCM/articles/k-bell.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;K-Bell: One hell of an analyst.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;House of Lies&lt;/em&gt;, based on Martin Kihn&#39;s classic consulting tell-all book &lt;em&gt;House of Lies: How Management Consultants Steal Your Watch and Tell You the Time&lt;/em&gt;, stars Don Cheadle (pretty cool) and Kristen Bell (positively delightful).  According to Showtime, Cheadle&#39;s character &quot;Marty&quot; is &quot;a highly-successful and cutthroat consultant who is never above using any means (or anyone) necessary to get his way with and for his clients.&quot;  I must say, that sounds suspiciously like a buzz quote from our consulting survey.  Bell, the bona fide beaut of &lt;em&gt;Forgetting Sarah Marshall&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Veronica Mars&lt;/em&gt; fame, plays &quot;Jeannie Van Der Hooven, a razor-sharp, Ivy-League graduate who works at Marty&amp;rsquo;s firm.&quot;  But you already knew that, because you&#39;re an avid reader of Consult THIS and read my original post.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What you won&#39;t have gleaned from that magnificent introduction to K-Bell&#39;s consulting initiation is that the inaugural season (we pray it won&#39;t be the last) will treat viewers to twelve 30-minute episodes.  Emmy-winner Stephen Hopkins, previously a director and executive producer on hit shows &lt;em&gt;Californication&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;24&lt;/em&gt;, will serve in both capacities on &lt;em&gt;House of Lies&lt;/em&gt;.  Bell and Cheadle&#39;s co-stars will include Dawn Oliveri, Ben Schwartz and Josh Lawson, whoever those people are.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The show starts production this summer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Amen.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;For more information:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt; Showtime&#39;s House of Lies press release&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Photo:&lt;/strong&gt; Peter Kramer, AP&lt;/p&gt;
