John CorbettTalk about a role reversal: John Corbett is going from loving, all-American dad on 'The United States of Tara' to deadbeat dad/musician ex-husband of Lauren Graham's Sarah on 'Parenthood.'

According to Deadline, Corbett's character, Seth, will pay a visit to the Braverman clan while he's in town to play some shows with his band. Corbett's first appearance is scheduled to air in March.

'Sons of Anarchy' actor Darin Heames played Seth in the pilot.

- Brian Austin Green and Harold Perrineau will COSTAR in a TBS comedy pilot TOGETHER. Pretty hard to COSTAR by yourself. It's redundant. You should've left off "together."

Booo! If you lead with a character/show, that should be the first thing we see when we link in. It shouldn't be buried down in the fourth spot.

Well, grudgingly I'll give John Corbett a chance. I was never happy with him as Carrie's lover on Sex and the City TV series. Mr. Big - first, last and always. (Also on the Good Wife.)
