Actor-comedian Ron Funches (Disney XD’s Crash & Bernstein) has been added to the NBC/WBTV comedy pilot Undateable, about a group of date-challenged friends whose lives are forever altered when a more confident character (Chris D’Elia) enters their world. Funches, repped by APA, Truhett Garcia Management and attorney Lev Ginsburg, plays Shelly, an odd, shy musician member of the group whose appeal to women comes to life when he’s performing. He also is a writer for The Kroll Show.
Gregory Harrison has been cast in CBS‘ Charleston, SC-set drama pilot Reckless, which centers on Jamie (Anna Wood), a gorgeous Yankee litigator, and Roy (Cam Gigandet), a Southern City Attorney, who struggle to hide their intense attraction while clashing over a police sex scandal. Harrison, repped by Stone Manners Salners and Himber Entertainment, plays Dec, a polished, well-connected Charleston attorney who is Roy’s ex-father-in-law and mentor.
General Hospital alum Lexi Ainsworth has been added to ABC‘s Romeo & Juliet-esque pilot Westside, about the haves and the have-nots of California’s most seductive city, Venice. Ainsworth, repped by Green & Associates, plays Nico, the teenage daughter of Lisa (Jennifer Beals) with a type-A personality. She will next be seen in The Bully Chronicles.

Undateable is so damn funny. This guy looks perfectly cast. Great smile.
I’ve been working with Ron Funches on “Crash & Bernstein” — a lovely guy and a funny, funny actor. Wishing him lots of luck with this pilot, but hoping they’ll let him out to do more “Crash” if it goes!
Ron Funches is INCREDIBLY funny. Let this show go to series, and I guarantee it’ll be a hit.
I’ve seen Ron perform in Portland before he sold out and moved to LA. The man’s got chops. I recently found myself bored with another comedy show until he had a cameo. After he was gone, I just switched to watching his stand up on YouTube.
So excited to see Lexi cast in a series. So hope this show gets picked up and becomes a hit.
That girl does not look like she could pass for Jennifer Beal’s daughter
So incredibly excited for Lexi!!!
