"From the outside, McKaley Miller seems like your typical 18-year-old. She just graduated from her totally normal Texas high school and spends her summer days watching Netflix and hanging out with friends. But there&amp;#39;s something major that makes her stand out. She not only steals the spotlight as Rose Hattenbarger in Hart of Dixie, but she also has another brand-new show premiering tonight. Basically, she&amp;#39;s making the most of her teenage years.\n\nPartners is hours away from making its primetime debut, and McKaley couldn&amp;#39;t be more excited. The show focuses on two lawyers who become (you guessed it) partners, but there&amp;#39;s one problem: They&amp;#39;re complete opposites in an Odd Couple kind of way. &amp;quot;Kelsey Grammer&amp;#39;s character is more let&amp;#39;s-break-the-rules and Martin Lawrence&amp;#39;s is more of a let&amp;#39;s-go-by-the-book sort of person,&amp;quot; McKaley says. &amp;quot;It&amp;#39;s so funny to see their personalities together.&amp;quot; And where does McKaley fit in? &amp;quot;I play Lizzie, Kelsey&amp;#39;s stepdaughter. I&amp;#39;m sort of bratty and super sarcastic and it is so much fun to play a character who&amp;#39;s so out there. She does some pretty crazy things. I love playing someone so different from me! This girl is spoiled and rude and does the meanest things. My fans aren&amp;#39;t going to know what to think!&amp;quot;\n\nAside from her new show, she&amp;#39;s already filming the fourth season of Hart of Dixie, which was recently nominated for a Teen Choice Award for TV Drama. &amp;quot;I was on set just a couple weeks ago and it was the second episode of season four,&amp;quot; McKaley says. &amp;quot;Everyone was coming up to me saying they can&amp;#39;t believe we were filming the pilot episode when I was 13 years old. The cast and crew have been my second family\u2014I&amp;#39;ve basically grown up on the set. I could drive to the Warner Brothers lot with my eyes closed.&amp;quot;\n\nOne of those proverbial family members is co-star Rachel Bilson, who&amp;#39;s become a big part of McKaley&amp;#39;s life. &amp;quot;Every time I go back to set, Rachel is always asking what drama I&amp;#39;m dealing with, whether it&amp;#39;s school, boys, or just all the personal stuff,&amp;quot; she says. &amp;quot;She&amp;#39;s been like a big sister to me. She&amp;#39;s always been so sweet and always looks out for me. Anyone who ever meets her instantly falls in love with her.&amp;quot;\n\nFinding out her show is up for a TCA was particularly serendipitous for McKaley, who will be attending Sunday&amp;#39;s awards ceremony for the first time this year. &amp;quot;When I saw we were nominated I started jumping up and down,&amp;quot; she says. &amp;quot;I&amp;#39;m dying to meet everyone and see everything in person, because I&amp;#39;ve watched it from my living room every year. I can&amp;#39;t wait to be in the audience this time around.&amp;quot;\n\nOne thing&amp;#39;s for sure: Even if she doesn&amp;#39;t walk away with a statue\u2014or, rather, a surfboard (coolest trophy ever, if you ask us)\u2014McKaley&amp;#39;s still winning the game, one new conquest at a time. Are you excited to watch her in Partners tonight, and to catch her at the TCAs on Sunday? Leave a comment below!"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
