NBC's 'Perfect Harmony' embraces its Kentucky roots, UK basketball jokes and all

LEXINGTON – Man walks into a bar and orders a drink.

Clearly down on his luck, the man turns to the bartender and quips, “I may have fallen from grace, but I’m still at the top of my game.”

“OK, Rick Pitino,” the bartender retorts.

Where else would that joke make sense other than Kentucky? It’s fitting then it was written for NBC’s new show "Perfect Harmony," the creation of Lexington native Lesley Wake Webster.

The show is loosely based on the life of Wake Webster’s grandfather, who ended up directing a Wayne County choir after moving to the Lake Cumberland area following the death of his wife.
