Good news! I'm happy for Bryan. He's a versatile performer who can fluctuate between comedy and drama effortlessly, in my opinion, and it will be great to see him on a dramatic series such as this next year.

Thanks for posting the news, TJ.

I remember the first time that news came out; I thought the show looked promising. Which channel is that airing on again? Of course, I'll need to be reminded again come January. :D
