Whoopi Goldberg will guest-star on an upcoming episode of ABC's "The Middle", the show's executive producer announced Wednesday at the winter TV previews.

Goldberg will appear on the 21st episode as the guidance counselor of Sue (Eden Shur), executive producer Eileen Heisler said during the panel.

Also coming soon to visit the Heck family is TV veteran Ed Asner.

"We're kind of playing Mary Tyler Moore tic-tac-toe," Heisler said, although she didn't elaborate on what role Asner would play.

Ed Asner's guest spot was hilarious - basically a Lou Grant clone.
