It is! It is missing it's type identification though (2800 cs, 3.0cs, 3.0 csi or csl).
Can't be an 2000cs, as it has e9 bumpers with the rubber strip.

What is the brown-greyisch car to the left of it? I like those lines and rear light cluster a lot.

Rolls Corniche or Bentley (Azure) convertible.

I had never heard of this show but looked it up. Leslie Bibb is from my hometown and lived on my wife's hall at UVA. Then she won a modeling contest and dropped out to pursue that and eventually Hollywood. Guess we will be watching it.

It has a 1968/1969 Palm Beach county license plate so if it is actually registered with that plate in Florida then it is a 2800cs. The "W" on it indicates originally the plate was used for a car weighing 3500-4500 lbs (big old hunk of American iron) but this could be legally registered now under Florida's antique plate laws.

What is this show about?

So they sweated the details and got correct period plates for cars that may or may not be 69 or earlier. The Vette plate doesn't look period though.
