I hear (from a pretty reliable source) that Sean Maher's got a new series. It's a medical drama from David E. Kelly called "Halley's Comet" set to air on the WB. No press on this yet that I'm aware of so I could be letting the cat out of the bag.

The more I get to know people the more I like my dogs.

A medical drama is appropriate.

A medical drama with a space reference in the name is even more appropriate.

Hope he's not gonna end up typecast as the uptight, naive, core-world doctor. . .

An otherwise sane online friend of my who *hates Simon* has been cackling about an earlier moment in Sean Maher's career where he played a necrophiliac on one of the CSI shows.

I don't know who Hardware's reliable source is but I heard about Halley's Comet from a VERY reliable source (NOT Sean) a few weeks before anyone else, I think.

I think this from the futon critic:

HALLEY'S COMET (The WB) - Relative newcomer Audrey Marie Anderson ("Drop Dead Sexy") has scored the title role of Halley Newell in the David E. Kelley-produced drama pilot, about a 23-year-old med school student just discovering adulthood after surviving a devastating childhood disease. Also cast in the San Francisco-based pilot are Adam Campbell ("Commando Nanny"), Adam LaVorgna ("7th Heaven"), Marika Dominczyk ("North Shore") and Sean Maher ("Firefly"). Halley's character is described in the casting notice as: "Halley Newell: 23. Attractive, bright, dry-witted, and funny, Halley is a med student, with an ER internship. Recently pronounced cancer-free, after her diagnosis at age seventeen, Halley has a lot of catching up to do. She's eager to make up for lost time - to take life by the reins, but is still a bit tentative." Campbell then is set as Mike Calendar, who's listed as: "Mid-late 20s, Irish. A musician with a positive attitude, he's always broke, but one step away from making it big. He is Halley's loft neighbor, an all-around nice guy whose only got Halley's best interests at heart. He'd like to see her find a beau, eager to find out how things went with his guitar student, Ben."
As for Dominczyk, she'll play Mathea Cray: "23. Beautiful, free-spirited and take-charge, she is Halley's best friend since childhood, and now works as a stockbroker. She's adamant that Halley get back into the dating game," while Maher is set as Bret Fennow: "30. Chief Resident at UCSF Hospital, he is bright and handsome, "the guy you want taking care of you." Sensitive, caring, decent, and extremely likable, he was Halley's doctor, now her friend. Clearly, he'd like to be more." Finally, LaVorgna is set as Ben, who's described as: "Mid-late 20s, good-looking. He is one of Mike's guitar students. Left at the altar by his previous girlfriend, Ben is a sweet guy, and he and Halley hit it off immediately. Clearly, Halley thinks Ben may be the guy for her." Jonathan Pontell is directing the 20th Century Fox Television/David E. Kelley Productions-based project from a script by creator Andrew Kreisberg.
