John Benjamin Hickey (The Big C) is set as a lead in the CW’s pilot Blink. Written by Vera Herbert and exec produced by David Marshall Grant, Blink is a quirky, humorous family drama narrated by the father, Greg (Hickey), who is in a coma-like state following a car accident where he cannot speak or move, but can see and hear all. Hickey is with Paradigm and The Schiff Co.

Go John!!! Congrats to a very talented actor! He’s always a bright spot in the shows he’s in.
One of my favorite actors. This sounds like an interesting pilot. Hope it works out.
One of the nicest guys on EARTH and one of the most grounded actors ever. I had the privilege of working with him on a show and it was a joy. He deserves the best.
This is too good for the likes of the CW.
Another massive NY theater talent breaks loose on screen. Bravo, JBH.
Good for him! Great guy. Worked with him a few years back!
JOHN is my cousin & all our family is so proud of his success === & the best part is that he hasn’t changed a bit (a wonderful son, brother, uncle & cousin) LOVE YOU JOHN
