Lawrence Is Privileged, Schnieder Gets Dirty

Lawrence Is Privileged

Michael Ausiello reports, Sharon Lawrence will be joining the cast of The CW’s freshman series Privileged. Lawrence will play Shelby, Megan (Joanna Garcia) and Lily’s (Kristina Apgar) ‘deadbeat’ mum. After abandoning her children for 15 years, Shelby returns with a personal agenda and according to sources she will be brash and larger-than-life.

As it stands, Lawrence will be appearing in two episodes (the first of which airs in January). But if she impresses the executives, we might see a bit more of her.

Last night Privileged could not quite muster respectable numbers, nevertheless it did improve on last week’s episode with 2.16M, 1.1/3 A18-49 and 1.4/4 A18-34, it slumped further in finals with 1.916M, 0.9/2 A18-49 and 1.2/3 A18-34.

Please The CW, give this gem of a show a full season.

Schnieder Gets Dirty

Meanwhile, John Schneider (The Secret Life of the American Teenager and Dukes of Hazzard) might have scored himself another gig. Apparently, he has signed on for three episodes of ABC’s Dirty Sexy Money. He’ll play a congressman who screws over Simon Elder at the request of a blackmailin’ Tripp.

Also, the producers of Dirty Sexy Money are on the look out for an actress to play Schneider’s upscale trophy wife.
