All of them are regulars, while Jennifer Westfeldt has come aboard as a recurring, playing a a journalist.
Also cast as a recurring on the 20th TV/Imagine series is Nazneen Contractor as Kapoor's daughter.
Prinze, repped by ICM and Brillstein, recently co-starred on the ABC comedy pilot "No Heroics."

Gee, maybe Jack will also get a dog this year. Perhaps, oh I don't know, a...GREAT DANE!!
Sorry, just can't picture Freddie Prinze Jr. as a "Jack Bauer" type. |
