Erika Christensen, David Cross Join ‘Hell’

Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Comedy, CBS, Arrested Development

David CrossAt first glance, I wasn’t too excited about CBS’ new comedy I’m in Hell. Sure, Jason Biggs (of American Pie fame) stars as a Wall Street dude who dies and has to live out Hell on Earth… but it really didn’t grab me. The latest news of Erika Christensen and David Cross joining the series may make it worth a look, however. OK, so I’m really just talking about David Cross here. Since Arrested Development left, I’ve been missing the old AD gang and love to see them pop up here and there (case in point, a guest appearance by Will Arnett on tonight’s 30 Rock). I’m a huge fan of Cross’ from his quirky stand-up and of course, Mr. Show with Bob and David, which was pure genius. So, any David Cross is worth a look I figure, especially when he takes on the role as the devil in I’m in Hell.

Kristy Swanson Tackles Anna Nicole Role

Kristy SwansonWell, it was only a matter of time before a movie of the week about Anna Nicole Smith materialized. Well, we’re not there quite yet, but Law & Order: Criminal Intent will feature a character similar to Anna Nicole, with Kristy Swanson taking on the role. The episode airs May 8th, in one of their “ripped from the headlines” storylines. Here’s the kooky part, David Cross will be playing a Howard K. Stern-type character. I don’t think I’ve ever seen David Cross do anything dramatic, so it may be worth a peek just to see him. I mean, his comedic quirkiness on Mr. Show and Arrested Development have me wondering how he can even play such a straight role. While I never watch Law & Order, this may be just the time to tune in. I’m curious to see how Swanson and Cross pull it off.
