Nick Kroll, Bill English and Kaitlin Doubleday have been cast in the leads.

Coffeecup 03-30-2007, 07:10 PM This will remind me of the 1960's tv show IT"S ABOUT TIME" . I wonder how long this new series will last. Time went two years but wasn't a great rating attraction. THis may only go 2 months EmoJoe 03-30-2007, 09:52 PM this show is going to blow. :grr: Ireneparalegal 03-30-2007, 11:55 PM John Lehr is the guy who plays the geico caveman...he was on Christina Applegate's show JESSE and has an impressive list here: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0499856/ |
