Michael Landes is set to co-star on CBS’ untitled Peter Knight comedy pilot, a workplace ensemble about the young-adult employees at a high-powered venture capital firm. Landes will play one of the employees, Andrew, a handsome, cocky and annoyingly smart full-fledged workaholic. Landes, repped by CAA and Untitled, recently completed Lumpy, The Congress and 11:11:11 and did a two-month run in David Mamet’s play House Of Cards at the Almeida theater.
Beth Lacke has been cast as a regular on ABC’s comedy pilot Work It. The multicamera project, from Andrew Reich and Ted Cohen, is about out-of-work car salesmen Lee (Ben Koldyke) and Angel (Amaury Nolasco), who realize that it is a woman’s world and decide that to find work again and succeed, they must dress as women to get jobs as pharmaceutical reps. Lacke, repped by Innovative and Sanders.Armstrong.Caserta, will play Lee’s hardworking wife, a nurse.

Okay, why is Brinkley becoming a regular and not Cloris Leachman!
She has a different deal. Doesn’t want to officially be a regular. Congrats Gregg! More Barney is going to mean more laughs!
Gregg Binkley is such a funny actor and a great guy. So happy for him! The peeps over at “Hope” are quite smart for adding him.
As a high school friend of his…BRAVO – it’s a reward long overdue! He has worked very hard the past 26 years, with everything from small roles to his Del Taco Dan commercials. Way to go Gregg!!!!
How is Cloris not a regular? So odd.
@Jasonbres
Greg(Creator of Raising Hope) said Cloris will be a series regular in season two as well at Paley Fest.
Yeah, Gregg Binkley is one of the funniest actors I have ever worked with. He adds a lot to that show.
Gregg is a hilarious actor and great guy. After so many years of working together irregularly, it’ll be great to see him every week!
Congratulations Gregg!!!
It couldn’t happen to a nicer guy!!!
Blessings!!!
So ABC’s actually going to make Work It. Their executives will eat out at restaurants, go to ballgames, etc without any sense of embarrassment that they greenlit this astonishingly awful, early 80′s era script. Huh.
Gregg,
Congrats! You are so talented! Now more people are going to see just how funny you are every week!

Gregg is one of the best comic actors in LA. Great casting.
Having worked with Cloris, I can tell you she is brilliant but a total handful. The producers perhaps can’t bring themselves to commit to working with her every week. Either that or her quote is so high they can’t afford her.
