[Brian Damage]

David Henrie, who plays the son on CBS' How I Met Your Mother, has landed the lead in CBS' comedy pilot Assistants. The project, from writer Tucker Cawley, centers on Mike (Henrie) who, newly arrived in Hollywood from a small town in Pennsylvania, is hoping his job as an assistant to a big celebrity might open doors for him. In the meantime, he's learning the ropes from his fellow assistants who know how to tip-toe around their neurotic boss and her equally crazy husband.

I never knew he was on "How I Met Your Mother", but he is a good actor. It will be nice to see him in a different role and this show sounds pretty good!
