I am so relieved that my "friends" from other shows got new jobs. Just today it was announced that Veronica Mars (Kristen Bell) was cast on Heroes. Guess I'm going to have to start watching that one.
Kristen is the third Veronica Mars cast member to secure work for the upcoming season--Logan Echolls (Jason Dohring) will be seen on CBS's Moonlight and we already got a sneak peak at Piz (Chris Lowell) on ABC's Private Practice.
The prize for the show with the most actor relocations goes to The Nine. Detective Nick Cavanaugh (Tim Daly) is joining Piz on Private Practice. Lizzie (Jessica Collins) and Felicia (Dana Davis) are joining Ronnie on Heroes. (Btw, Davis did a 2-ep stint on Mars in its second season). Bank manager Malcolm (Chi McBride) will be Pushing Daisies on ABC. And Franny (Camile Guaty) is moving to NBC's Las Vegas.
Come midseason, Lucas (Owain Yeoman) is in the pilot of Fox's The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Kathryn (Kim Raver) will joining NBC's Lipstick Jungle, while dearly departed Eva Rios (Lourdes Benedicto) will be on ABC's Cashmere Mafia.
Although Egan Foote (John Billingsley) doesn't have a permanent new home, we've seen him on a variety of TV guest spots, as well as the big screen. I'm not so concerned. Egan seems to always land on his feet.
The only other main character not jumping into a show for the new season is Dr. Jeremy Cates (Scott Wolf). But, dry those tears. Wolf signed a development deal with ABC over the summer. We'll be seeing him--and his dimples--again real soon.
