Brewster plays Francesca "Frankie" Dart, a consultant hired to help shape things up at the underachieving school. David will appear as Elroy Patashnik, a retired scientist who comes to Greendale to reinvent himself.
Also still nothing on Alison Brie? Last I knew she hadn't really said anything about Season 6 and was the only other cast member other than Yvette Brown to not say anything about the it being picked up for another season.
Brewster cameoed this past season as an employee of the school. I forget the exact role she served, and if it's the same character... Either way, I'm in -- Paget Brewster's great with comedy.
The Elroy role sounds practically identical to Pierce. I really wish they'd let the kooky and angry old man trying to reinvent himself trope go already. Give me a new character.
She was, yeah. Interesting they're having her play a whole new character as a result, but still, yay, awesome news regardless! I look forward to seeing her back on there, and in a regular role, no less. I'm not familiar with Keith David, but I'll be interested to see him as well. "Retired scientist" sounds like fun.
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
Yay! I love both of them and I can't wait to see them on the show.
ReplyDeleteDamn, that's a really old cast photo.
ReplyDeleteWait. Wasn't she already on the show last season as someone that already worked at Greendale?

ReplyDeleteTwo more reasons for me to watch S6! Like both of the additions.

I love Keith David, I was just rewatching some Enlisted the other day and hoping he would turn up in another comedy soon.
ReplyDeleteI see that you're quite behind on things related to the show...

I love both, but that's really big as a change.
ReplyDeleteHe'll probably be less racist.
