Janeane Garofalo joins cast of 24 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Here's an interesting casting choice: Janeane Garofalo is joining 24. According to TV Guide, she'll be a regular cast member on the next season. Her character is a government agent who will be investigating Jack Bauer and his CTU co-workers. I can imagine her playing someone Jack (and the rest of the audience) really hates.

This is Garofalo's first return to mainstream television since she her role as Louise Thornton on The West Wing in 2004-2005. She also starred in a dramatic pilot for CBS called Law Dogs, but it has not been picked up by the network.

WTF??? That's an odd choice for 24, IMHO. I hope she works out. I just can't picture her on that show, but hopefully I'll be surprised.

I can't stand her.
