Each week between six and eight beauties are tarted up in bra, panties and stockings and loaded into rough wooden crates for delivery from San Marcos, California, to their new owners.

...family whose kids are upscale strivers. CBS passed but let Nava shop it around. The show landed at PBS, which will air 13 episodes next season. Cable has filled in some of the breach too, notably on Showtime's Resurrection Blvd., TV's first Hispanic drama, returning in June. Creator Dennis Leoni says the story, about a family with roots in the boxing world, "was the perfect metaphor of Latinos trying to fight, literally and figuratively, for a piece of the American Dream...
