Comedy news today, people, beginning with the new casting addition to FreeForm's popular sitcom YOUNG AND HUNGRY which has just added Jose Moreno Brooks, whom you've watched last year in Eva Longoria's Hot and Bothered sitcom and also in Baby Daddy, to the cast! Here he will play Juan Carlo, a Mexican street vendor and Casanova that Sofia (Aimee Carrero) falls for while on vacation. In the fifth season, Gabi and Josh try to prove to everyone that they won’t let feelings get in the way of their new friends with benefits arrangement, Sofia continues on the path to a career in journalism, and Josh faces an unexpected reunion with his estranged father.

ELLIOTT GOULD AND Linda Lavin MOVE IN AS PARENTS
Talking about cast additions, two comedy veterans Elliott Gould and Linda Lavin will play the parents of  Mark Feuerstein and David Walton's characters in CBS new multi camera sitcom 9J, 9K AND 9L! The story is inspired by Feuerstein’s real life experience of living in apartment 9K in the building he grew up in, right between his parents’ apartment, 9J, and his brother, sister in law and their baby’s apartment, 9L, and his attempts to set boundaries with his intrusive but well meaning family. They will be Judy and Harry, parents of Josh (Mark Feuerstein) and Andrew (David Walton). Lavin’s Judy is stylish, social and obsessed with her sons. Her best day would be spent just staring at and smelling Josh. Harry knows no boundaries. A pillar of the community, he’s warm and loving and lives life to the fullest.

There's also the first teaser for Netflix' new comedy series DISJOINTED in which Kathy Bates is an owner of an Los Angeles cannabis dispensary who works with three charismatic “budtenders” (Dougie Baldwin, Elizabeth Ho, Elizabeth Alderfer), her entrepreneurial twenty something son (Aaron Moten) and a very troubled security guard (Tone Bell). 20 episodes are coming August 25th!
