Hopefully this makes it on the air next fall:

Yasbeck Joins New TV Project

Amy Yasbeck (NBC's "Wings") has been tapped to play the mother in Fox's pilot "Related by Family," about two very different teenagers forced to live under the same roof when their parents remarry.

She joins Matthew Glave, who was previously cast as the father. This past development season, Yasbeck co-starred in the pilot for the WB Network's series "Like Family." Her credits also include the feature film "The Mask."

I thought I'd never say this about a FOX sitcom ever again, but......This actually sounds pretty damn good!

Cool

It will be great to see her on the TV screen again

She's a remarkable actress! I know John is looking down on everyone who touched his life, and adored him as an actor.

Amy has been cast for another FOX pilot, this time an animated series. Now, if her sitcom and this animated series BOTH make it on the air this fall, that would be REALLY great. I hope at least one of these projects for her on FOX makes it on the air. Here is the info on the new animated project:

"Untitled Animated Phil Hendrie Show"
Amy Yasbeck ("Wings"), Sarah Silverman ("Greg The Bunny"), Nat Faxon ("Grosse Pointe") and Neil Flynn ("Scrubs") have been added to the voice cast of the animated comedy pilot, which revolves around the life of radio personality Phil Hendrie ("Gated World"). The pilot presentation tracks Hendrie's character who after landing a gig in a major market, ends up marrying a woman with three children and moving into a gated suburban community. Steven Levitan ("Just Shoot Me") and Phil Lord & Chris Miller ("Clone High, U.S.A.") are behind the project, which comes from 20th Century Fox Television. The Hendrie project is one of four animated presentations under consideration by FOX for next season (the others being Seth MacFarlane's "American Dad," the small screen version of comic strip "The Boondocks" and an untitled project from the "Dr. Katz" team of Jonathan Katz and Tom Synder). FOX is expected to give a series order to at least one of the projects shortly in order to provide its respective producers enough lead time to make a 2004-05 season start.

The December issue of 'In Touch' said she may make an appearance, but this was never confirmed. Katey Sagal denied any rumors on 'Larry King.' I'm sure now, with two possible pilots to work on, as well as family priorities will make it impossible.

i hope that both of the pilots do well, I will defianently watch if it's not up against any of my shows
