Fox's untitled Tina Fey and Matt Hubbard comedy has found a second of its four male leads.
CSI alum Brandon Jones has boarded the untitled comedy known as Cabot College, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
The multicamera comedy takes place at a women's college that has just opened its doors to men for the first time. Third Watch alum Bonnie Dennison stars as Thena, a pretty but uptight sophomore and hard-core feminist who is the leader of the sizable population of Cabot College that doesn't want men on campus. Broadway actor Jack Cutmore-Scott co-stars as Charlie Deckard, a wealthy Kennedy-esque guy who enrolls in the college, much to Thena's chagrin. Chelsea Lately's Fortune Feimster co-stars.
