"Big Day" (originally titled "A Day In The Life") is a short-lived American situation comedy that first aired on ABC from November 28 2006 to January 30 2007. The series was co-produced by Josh Goldsmith and Cathy Yuspa and directed by Michael Spiller for Sony Pictures Television. In Canada, the series aired on CanWest's Global and CH stations.

Originally, it was supposed to debut on October 5 2006, along with "Notes from the Underbelly", but ABC made a last-minute change in its schedule by moving "Ugly Betty" to Thursday, thus replacing both sitcoms whose "buzz" was not especially promising.

"Big Day" was broadcast on Tuesdays at 9:00/8:00c. The timeslot was supposed to be filled by another new sitcom that had a better "buzz," "The Knights of Prosperity", but ABC moved that program to Wednesdays to make "Big Day" a priority. Unfortunately, according to the ratings, "Big Day" turned out to be a very big disappointment.

When "Big Day" ended its first season on January 30, 2007 [ [http://www.thefutoncritic.com/showatch.aspx?id=big_day&view=listings Shows A-Z - big day on abc | TheFutonCritic.com ] ] , only 12 of the 13 produced episodes aired leaving the 13th episode, titled "The $10,000 Check", unaired.

On May 15, 2007, ABC officially cancelled the show after the network announced their 2007-2008 fall schedule.

ynopsis

"Big Day" follows a major event in a couples' life — the big wedding day — during the course of one day from all angles, and the people involved (similar to "24"), ranging from the maid of honor who accidentally drinks the contact lenses of the best man whom she slept with, to the bride's ex-boyfriend, who's opposed to the union and will stop at nothing to throw a wrench into the plans.

All of these events and other obstacles are part of the ultimate test that Danny and Alice will have to face before they walk down the aisle and say their I Do's...unless someone should stand up and ask why this couple should not be joined together in holy matrimony.

The story arc has similarities to the 2004-6 BBC series The Worst Week of My Life, which has also been the subject of a FOX pilot (2005) and an as yet unseen CBS pilot (2007).
