Buffy's Brendon & Roswell's Heigl in New Pilots
Friday, April 11, 2003 8:14 CDT

Buffy the Vampire Slayer co-star Nicolas Brendon has been added to Fox's comedy pilot The Pool at Maddy Breakers, while Roswell star Katherine Heigl has been cast in UPN's drama presentation Vegas Dick.

The Hollywood Reporter says "Maddy Breakers" revolves around three 28-year-old women who struggle with the reality that they peaked in high school.

Brendon will play the ex-boyfriend from high school and current friend for one of the women, with Eric Nenninger (Fox's Malcolm in the Middle) and Matt Bushell cast as the executives of the other women.

Vegas Dick centers on a former con man who becomes a casino detective. Heigl will play the guy's boss, the daughter of the hotel and casino owner who serves as the hotel and casino's manager.

Guess that squashes the "Xander the Watcher" spin-off rumors.

Nice to see Heigl will be on TV again (even if it is UPN)

Congratulations to Nick! I wasn't entirely sure he'd find work again...

agreed, as long as she has her hair longer a la the earlier roswell seasons. her deux in the last season wasn't appealing.

Kind of off-topic, but "Vegas Dick" is easily the most fantastic TV show title I've *ever* heard.

Harkens back to the days when "dick" actually meant "detective." Like that old movie: "The Bank Dick."

Hate to say it, but Nick is going to Fox where his show will probably get dumped after one showing. It has happened.
