Fall 2007: Huff Star's in The Thick of It
Who's doing what this pilot season? From the Reporter:
• Huff's two-time Emmy nominee, Oliver Platt, has joined ABC's D.C.-set British import, The Thick of It.
• As first scooped by Ausiello, Chris Lowell (aka Veronica Mars' Piz) is set to guest-star on the Grey's Anatomy episode setting up the possible spin-off. Deets on Lowell's character, even his name, are being kept hush-hush. Hmmm....
• Lacey Chabert (Mean Girls) joins Molly Stanton (Twins) and Dorian Brown as sorority sisters trying to clean up their act after college in an untiled Fox laffer.
• Eric Winter (Wildfire) is a police detective in CBS' Viva Laughlin.
• Reba's Steve Howey is The Beast in Fox's comedy about a womanizing veterinarian.
• James D'Arcy is a lead agent on the hunt for E.T. sleeper cells in Fox's Them.
• Thad Luckinbill (The Young and the Restless) has joined CBS' police serial Protect and Serve.

Congrats to Thad Luckinbill on his new CBS primetime show but does that mean he will be leaving Y&R?

I hope Chabert can work "toaster strudels" somehow into the show.
Love Oliver Platt, hated Huff so I'm glad to see him in this show which is #2 on "my new shows to look forward to" list (bumped up from #6 after hearing Mitch Hurwitz was involved).

Three cheers for the triumphant return of Lacey Chabert! She deserves it.

I loved Oliver Platt in Huff and LOVE the British show "Thick of It".
I was very, very worried about the US version possibly straying towards "Coupling" proportions until I read that Christopher Guest (Best in Show, Spinal Tap) is going to be directing the pilot!

Will Lacey, Molly, and Dorian be members of Delta Zeta sorority?
