Ausiello has the scoop on MC's character (semi-spoilerish if you don't want to know who he's playing). No specifics on what episodes and when...especially with the writer's strike. My guess is his episodes are already filmed or about to be filmed before production shuts down.
Nobody can ever say that Matt Czuchry is a victim of typecasting. He's following up his memorable stint as hard-living bad boy Logan on Gilmore Girls with an arc on Friday Night Lights as — I kid you not — a devout Christian. Natch, he's being introduced to the show via the newly religious Lyla.
So what do you think, people? Is this heaven-sent casting news — can I get an amen? — or did the devil make FNL do it? Feel free, and in fact obliged, to discuss. Silent prayer is all well and good, but nicely typed debates go over way better in this forum.
