Comedian Nick Thune has been cast as the male lead in NBC’s comedy pilot I Hate That I Love You. The single-camera project, from writer/exec producer Jhoni Marchinko and 20th TV, is described as a twisty romantic comedy in which a straight couple, Brad (Thune) and Missy, introduce their lesbian roommates, Brad’s Allie and Missy’s Sarah (Anna Camp), to each other. Earlier this season, Thune was attached to another NBC comedy project, an ensemble show penned by Spike Feresten. Thune, repped by WME and 3 Arts, has a Web series, Nick’s Big Show.
Colin O’Donoghue (The Rite) has landed the male lead in ABC’s drama pilot Identity. The project, from ABC Studios, Mark Gordon Co. and writer John Glenn, is an action procedural based on a British format that centers on an elite police unit formed to combat the explosion of identity-related crime. Irish-born O’Donoghue will play John Bloom, an intensely private, psychologically insightful former undercover FBI agent who’s secretly never left his undercover identity behind, even though he is now working with his old comrade Martha Adams (Angela Bassett) in the FBI’s new Identity Crimes Unit.

Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge pass for me. I heard Thune couldn’t even get in the room with the LOGJAMMERS producers. These pilots both just locked up passes from their respective networks.
Also, HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOgans.
Good luck to Thune – he’s a funny guy and will find success but I fear once Greenblatt gets his hands on something he squeezes all the juice out. Just look at LOGJAMMERS…
I hope this means Orlando Jones is still in it. Is he not a co lead?
If it is like the british version -which was not that good to Begin with – no it isn’t Orlando Jones part- o’donaghue Will play The part played by aiden gillen in the british version. Orlando Jones would play the colleague that is a stickler for rules and doesn’t trust o’donaghue.
I don’t wish people not to get jobs but this show was truly not good. I don’t even get why they would buy the rights to such an unoriginal unimaginative show
Thune – out. He had his 15 minutes. It’s over Johnny! Over!
Guy is just another dude on Becky’s list. Throw them at the wall and see who sticks. Thune’s got a couple more tosses (don’t get dizzy) and then bye-bye.
Tee-hee.
You all need to pay attention to this name: Gunner Wright. You heart it hear first.
The UK’s ‘Identity’ was great even though it only lasted 6 episodes. Perhaps it’ll catch on in the States.
Tell it like it is – Couldn’t agree with you more. You are one of the more honest people out here. Thanks for not being a kiss ass comment person.
I hear that I Hate That I Love You is colossaly unfunny. If it makes it to air I’ll pass thank you.
