TV: THE PROUD FAMILY Mariah's episode of the animated series The Proud Family. On this episode Oscar Proud's monkey is switched with someone else's (guess who??) at Dr. Trudy Proud's veterinarian office.

TV: ALLY MCBEAL We've mentioned the fact that this last-ever series of Ally gets bogged down in an endless and increasingly desperate series of stunt star cameos. Well here's Mariah Carey to prove the point. The demented diva plays a key figure in a trial in which series regular Kimmie sues a matchmaking company for telling her she was unmatchable. Meanwhile, Ally-alike Jenny has to deal with her mother (guess what? guest star Jaqueline Bisset) getting married to a toyboy. Quite good episode though. Mariah had a brief, but very memorable appearance on an episode of Ally McBeal, which aired in January 2002. So memorable, that TV Guide made it the "Editors Choice" after reviewing every other television program airing in Primetime. Mariah played Candy Cushnip, the key witness on the defense side of a lawsuit against a matchmaking company that deemed a woman "unmatchable". Candy: But it's the worst thing that could happen to me. It was awful. She promised me a partner, but it was a fraud. Span: Ms. Cushnip, did you get dates through the defendant's service? Candy: Oh yes, "dates", but not with men who could even remotely be partners. She peppers you with dates but then nothing ever works out. And then she blamed it on me. And that's what was so hurtful. Span: You put in your video you liked the spotlight. Candy: Well, a lot of women like attention. Span: Yes, but you actually travel around with your very own technician and a spotlight don't you, Ms. Cushnip? Candy: It's an esteem device - that's all. A woman is prettier when she feels good about herself. Span: I see you brought your technician with you here Todd - Ms. Cushnip, would you feel more comfortable he lit you up? Candy: Maybe a little. Span: Go ahead, sir. Candy: Much better. [smiles and waves]
