Scoop: 'Eastwick' star Jaime Ray Newman joins 'Drop Dead Diva'

jaime-ray-newmanImage Credit: Jason Merritt/Getty ImagesEx-Eastwick charmer Jaime Ray Newman is bringing her magic touch to Lifetime’s Drop Dead Diva via a major season 2 arc, sources confirm.

Newman will play an accomplished lawyer from a rival law firm who possesses a killer instinct.

In other Drop Dead second-season casting news, Gilmore Girls alum Emily Kuroda (a.k.a. Mrs. Kim!) has been cast as the mother of Margaret Cho’s character, Teri. Additionally, Robin Givens will play a mean-spirited cosmetics lab exec who accuses Jane’s (Brooke Elliott) client of wrongdoing.

DDD‘s second season premieres on June 6.

    I can’t wait!! I love DDD, but I kinda was hoping Jaime Ray would go back to Eureka, though I suppose the differing schedules could still make that happen.

      It’s like I wrote this comment!

      • Fido

        sounds like I wrote that reply :)

        if I can’t have her full-time on Eureka, then this’ll do me just fine.

    • Steph

      She is GORGEOUS!

    • Allan

      From EUREKA UNSCRIPTED about season 4: Jaime Ray Newman (Tess Fontana) and Matt Frewer (Taggart) will return as special guest stars !

      • Gina

        When does that happen? I have been hoping she would come back to Eureka. Carter needs a girlfriend.

    • Matthew

      It sounded like she will be in at least 4 episodes of Eureka this year. Hope it isn’t just a way to brush her off. I was hoping for a new permanent cast member. She got under Carter’s skin and it was great! Like Gina says, Carter needs a girlfriend!

  • TaMara

    Nick I was thinking the same thing about Eureka. Love that we’ll see Emily Kuroda again.

  • Josh

    I think she is a great actress! Good for her! Lifetime is for women but i will tune in to watch her. She is delicious!

  • Tristan

    I was hoping she would make a return appearance to Eureka.

    • Josh

      i am pretty sure she will be back on Eureka

  • Bernice

    I’ve loved her since I watch her on General Hospital and I love DDD so I’m very happy.

    • Lola

      Oh my goodness! That’s right -she was Kristina!

  • Anthony

    Jaime will be great onDDD wish she went back to Eureka though.

  • appletree

    I don’t know who this actress is, but when I saw her pic I thought it was Quinn from Glee.

  • shari

  • thebigone

    Loved her on Eastwick and even more so on Eureka. I wish she would return full time. Allison wore out her welcome after season 2

  • Sharayah

    I loved her on Eureka. I wish she would return to that show, because I love her and Carter together, so much more than Carter/Allison…but maybe a 4 show arc, will turn into something more, b/c she was great.
