Ashley Scott, how you doin'?
Scott, formerly of The WB's "Birds of Prey," is returning to television in "Joey," NBC's "Friends" spinoff starring Matt LeBlanc. She'll play a new L.A. neighbor and possible love interest for LeBlanc's Joey Tribbiani, according to the Hollywood trade papers.
She joins a cast that includes Drea De Matteo ("The Sopranos"), who's playing Joey's sister, and Paulo Costanzo ("40 Days and 40 Nights"), playing his nephew. The show has a series commitment from NBC and is a contender to fill "Friends"' 8 p.m. Thursday spot next season.
Scott played Helena Kyle, the superhero offspring of Batman and Catwoman, in "Birds of Prey," which lasted 13 episodes on The WB last season. She currently co-stars in "Walking Tall" opposite The Rock. Her other credits include the Fox series "Dark Angel" and "S.W.A.T."
Also at NBC, "Coupling" star Christopher Moynihan is joining the cast of "Foster Hall," which he also wrote. He replaces Greg Germann ("Ally McBeal") as the husband of Busy Philipps' character.
Elsewhere, Jaime Pressly ("Torque," "Jack & amp; Jill") has signed on to TNT's Evel Knievel biopic, playing the daredevil's wife. George Eads ("CSI") is playing Knievel.
