Marty Deeks and Leslie Knope share a mom…?
Parks and Rec alum Pamela Reed will guest-star on CBS’ NCIS: Los Angeles this fall, in a role that promises to delight (and perhaps intrigue) viewers.
“In the second episode a new character is introduced, and the audience will be delighted,” showrunner Shane Brennan told TVLine on Friday, before the casting of Mrs. Deeks was announced at EW.com. “When this person appears, you’re going to go, ‘Oh my God, this is so much fun!'”

Giovanni Ribisi has joined the cast of Seth MacFarlane's live action Fox comedy "Dads," replacing Tommy Dewey after one episode was shot.
In a sign of good faith, Fox ordered six episodes of "Dads" without filming a pilot first. The series was set to star Dewey (a recurring player on Fox's "The Mindy Project") and Seth Green as successful thirtysomethings suddenly forced to live with their nightmare dads (Peter Riegert and Martin Mull).
Word slipped out that reaction to the series' first taping was underwhelming and now Deadline reports that "tweaking" has ensued, including recasting Dewey with Ribisi. "Dads" had already replaced co-star Erin Pineda with Vanessa Lachey after its first table reading.
Ribisi hasn't had a series regular TV role since the short-lived early '90s comedy "Family Album," but he has a professional history with MacFarlane having done a guest voice on "Family Guy" and co-starred in both MacFarlane's blockbuster directorial debut,...

After spending untold amounts of cash on hundreds of dramas and comedies — most of which will never make it to your living rooms — the five broadcast networks will begin announcing in New York next week which projects are good enough to earn a coveted fall pickup. (NBC and Fox will present their fall schedule to advertisers on Monday, followed by ABC on Tuesday, CBS on Wednesday and the CW on Thursday).
Buzz is already strong for several projects (for more on the hot ones, click here). But every year, we always wonder what diamond-in-the-rough was left on the cutting room...

Which project has the right stuff? What pilot already has you feeling like you popped a Lunesta? Check out the mammoth slate for fall consideration. (And remember, all projects are whittled down in late April/early May before the nets present their fall slates to advertisers in New York):
