After a guest appearance on "LateLine", a role in the short-lived television series "Paramour" (1999), and several roles in television films such as "Annie" (as Lily St. Regis), Chenoweth starred in her own NBC sitcom, the semi-autobiographical "Kristin" in 2001. It was short-lived, with thirteen episodes filmed, but only six aired before it was canceled. Chenoweth appeared in the lead role of Marian in the 2003 television film, "The Music Man", opposite Matthew Broderick. She also guest-starred on such shows as "Frasier" (2001), "Sesame Street" (2002 and several times afterward) and "Ugly Betty" (2007).
