This just in: 'Chuck' wants Connie Britton!

If you’re thinking the above headline is too good to be true, well, you’re right. But this should still send a tingle down your spine: Chuck is looking for an actress to play the guest star role of Kathleen McHugh, an attractive, strong and independent woman. The prototype Josh Schwartz and Co. are asking agents and casting directors to use? You guessed it: Connie Britton.

Love. It.

    Do not give me a heart attack like that!! For a second I thought they were going to woo Connie away from FNL!

  • Mark

    I’d swear this was old news, right down to the “protoype” thing…

  • Jon

    NBC is in such great shape that they bench Chuck until spring and Friday Night Lights until summer? Huh?

  • Jnaet

    OMG…you nearly made me die! Whew, thought they were taking Connie away from FNL…thank God!

  • Michelle

    Reason 7489 to love Chuck. :)

    • Joel

      Are you kidding? I’m already at reason 10,052!

      • gimplygump ☺

        I’ve got you both beat at 10,000,000,000,000 to the power of 10,000,000,000,000 ♥♥♥♥

    Screw strong and independent women. Bring back Chuck and Sarah.
    And lets hope the new management doesn’t cancel the show just to pretended they are better than the previous management who green lit ‘Chuck’

  • Roscoe

    She was incredible on Drew Carey back in the day. That was a great cast too.

    • Lee

      What? Who was she on Drew Carey?

    • V

      She wasn’t on the Drew Carrey Show…

    • Andy

      You mean Spin City.

  • Fergus

    That would be so awesome if she did end up being on the show.

  • Steve

    Oh wow, a bit actor getting a guest role on a TV show. This is such HUGE news. Connie Britton is a nobody. Who cares if she gets cast on Chuck? She’ll be on screen for 10 minutes and then she’s done. Big whoop.

    • Brian

      You cared enough to click on the link and make a comment. Silly goose.

  • Lau

    OMG I WOULD DIE!

  • Jenna

    Why can’t the beloved Mrs. Coach do a little double-duty on Chuck. They are both my fav. shows that are on-air right now…well, ones that aren’t technically cancelled, even if “NBC” (I”m saying the network’s name with pure venom in my head) isn’t airing them just yet.

  • Audiovisual

    Then I’d recommend Hedy Burress or Jessica Steen. They both fit that description.

    • V

      Yes, i like Jessica Steen. She’s cool..

  • Jake

    If they want Connie Briton, just get Connie Briton. Given that NBC airs both shows, they could work out something where she could do Chuck for an episode or two while remaining committed to FNL on a full-time basis (see: Chandra Wilson visiting Private Practice.)

  • Sam Carter

    Just bring CHUCK back soon, please!

    CHUCK RULES!

  • andrew

    so when’s the showing returning to TV????
