Beth Grant Joins The Cast Of 'Munsters' Reboot 'Mockingbird Lane' - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

NBC's Munsters reboot, Mockingbird Lane, is lining up quite a cast.

The latest star to join the edgy drama is Beth Grant, according to TVLine.

Grant will play Maryanne, the paraplegic, busybody neighbor who takes a very keen interest in the strange new family next door.

This won't be Grant's first time working with series writer Bryan Fuller. The actress also appeared as Marianne Marie Beattle in Pushing Daisies and Wonderfalls, both of which Fuller helmed.

The Munsters never featured a character named Maryanne, making some wonder if the part was written specifically for Grant.

Grant's casting comes only hours after Mockingbird Lane landed guest star Cheyenne Jackson.

Jackson and Grant will join a cast which includes Jerry O'Connell, Portia De Rossi, Eddie Izzard and Mason Cook.

She's perfect for a project like this.

TV fans probably know her best (or, at least, *I* know her best) for her cameos on Coach as the deadpan woman who Hayden always asks if he'd seen her somewhere before.
