Joe Otterson TV Reporter Kristen Johnston will star alongside Leanne Morgan in the latter’s upcoming Netflix comedy series, Variety has learned. The untitled multi-cam comedy was picked up at Netflix in April with a 16-episode order. Morgan co-created the series with Susan McMartin and Chuck Lorre.
The role marks a reunion for Lorre and Johnston, as Johnston previously appeared in the CBS multi-cam “Mom,” which Lorre also co-created. The official description for Morgan’s series states: “Leanne’s life takes an unexpected turn when her husband of 33 years leaves her for another woman. Starting over when you’re a grandmother and in menopause isn’t exactly what she had in mind, but with the help of her family she will navigate this new chapter with grace, dignity and jello salad.” Johnston will star in the series regular role of Carol, Leanne’s sister.
The character is said to be Leanne’s complete opposite. “She’s twice divorced with no kids, and if there’s a choice between going to church and going to a bar, she will always choose the latter,” the character description states. “Despite their differences, Carol is fiercely loyal to her sister and is her ride or die.” Johnston won two Emmy Awards and received a Golden Globe nomination for her role in the NBC series “3rd Rock From the Sun,” which aired on the network for six seasons.
