At home, Ellen becomes reacquainted with her senior prom date, Rusty, who thinks they can pick up where they left off (which, since she is gay, seems unlikely), and her befuddled high school teacher, Mr. Munn. Though worlds apart from the people who love her, Ellen begins to adjust to a very different way of life and takes a job as a guidance counselor at her former high school. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Ellen_Show&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Main">Main</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Ellen_Show&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Main"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Ellen_DeGeneres" title="Ellen DeGeneres">Ellen DeGeneres</a> as Ellen Richmond</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Jim_Gaffigan" title="Jim Gaffigan">Jim Gaffigan</a> as Rusty Carnouk</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Emily_Rutherfurd" title="Emily Rutherfurd">Emily Rutherfurd</a> as Catherine Richmond</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Martin_Mull" title="Martin Mull">Martin Mull</a> as Ed Munn</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Kerri_Kenney" class="mw-redirect" title="Kerri Kenney">Kerri Kenney</a> as Pam</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Cloris_Leachman" title="Cloris Leachman">Cloris Leachman</a> as Dot Richmond</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Diane_Delano" title="Diane Delano">Diane Delano</a> as Bunny Hoppstetter (recurring)</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Notable_guest_stars">Notable guest stars</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Ellen_Show&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Notable guest stars"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Jennifer_Irwin" title="Jennifer Irwin">Jennifer Irwin</a> as Meg (episode: "Pilot" - the character became Pam played by Kerri Kenney instead)</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Regan_Burns" title="Regan Burns">Regan Burns</a> as Officer "B" Arthur (episodes: "Walden Pond", "Joe"")</li> <li><a href="/wiki/John_Francis_Daley" title="John Francis Daley">John Francis Daley</a> as Erik (episode: "Walden Pond")</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Susan_Yeagley" title="Susan Yeagley">Susan Yeagley</a> as Waitress (episode: "Chain Reaction")</li> <li><a href="/wiki/James_Patrick_Stuart" title="James Patrick Stuart">James Patrick Stuart</a> as Guy, the Vanity Fur pet groomer/stylist (episode: "Vanity Hair")</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Marissa_Jaret_Winokur" title="Marissa Jaret Winokur">Marissa Jaret Winokur</a> as Tina (episode: "Vanity Hair")</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Tom_Poston" title="Tom Poston">Tom Poston</a> as Joe (episode: "Joe")</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Betty_White" title="Betty White">Betty White</a> as Mrs. Gibson (episode: "Missing the Bus")</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Dakota_Fanning" title="Dakota Fanning">Dakota Fanning</a> as Young Ellen (episode: "Missing the Bus")</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Mary_Tyler_Moore" title="Mary Tyler Moore">Mary Tyler Moore</a> as Aunt Mary (episode: "Ellen's First Christmess")</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Ed_Asner" title="Ed Asner">Ed Asner</a> as Santa Claus (episode: "Ellen's First Christmess")</li> <li><a href="/wiki/John_Ritter" title="John Ritter">John Ritter</a> as Percy Moss (episode: "Gathering Moss")</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Maureen_McCormick" title="Maureen McCormick">Maureen McCormick</a> as Rita Carter (episode: "Shallow Gal")</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Se%C3%A1n_Cullen" title="Seán Cullen">Seán Cullen</a> as two different characters (episodes: Guitarist in "Just the Duck" and Christian Snee in "One for the Roadshow")</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Kaley_Cuoco" title="Kaley Cuoco">Kaley Cuoco</a> as Vanessa Carter (episode: "Shallow Gal")</li> <li>Ellen's real-life mother <a href="/wiki/Betty_DeGeneres" title="Betty DeGeneres">Betty DeGeneres</a> and her brother <a href="/wiki/Vance_DeGeneres" title="Vance DeGeneres">Vance DeGeneres</a> appeared in an episode (episode: "Just the Duck")</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Production">Production</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Ellen_Show&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Production"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The show was created by <a href="/wiki/Carol_Leifer" title="Carol Leifer">Carol Leifer</a> and <a href="/wiki/Mitchell_Hurwitz" title="Mitchell Hurwitz">Mitchell Hurwitz</a>, who co-wrote the <a href="/wiki/Pilot_episode" class="mw-redirect" title="Pilot episode">pilot episode</a>.
