| Chris Parnell as Dr. Leo Spaceman on NBC's 30 Rock |
A month back
we sneaked a peek at the CBS fall line-up and found
Big D, a Warner Bros. Television production about "a New York couple who moves to the man's hometown of Dallas, where his Southern-belle mother makes life complicated for his East coast wife." Right -- awesome. Now, from
The Hollywood Reporter come
more details that make this sitcom sound a wee bit more intriguing -- if only because the possible addition of
a Spaceman (Chris Parnell) and the
NSEA Protector's outer-space alien Laliari (Missi Pyle) promise something other than complete and absolute suck. So too does the announcement that an actual Texan -- Tony Award-winner
Deanna Dunagan, born in Monahans out in West Texas -- will join the cast.
