Exclusive: Jungle Boy Toy Has “Write Stuff” for Privileged
Robert Buckley on Lipstick Jungle
A loss for the audience of one unsung series is another’s gain.
Robert Buckley, who immediately made waves on NBC’s Lipstick Jungle as Kirby, Kim Raver’s strapping young boy on the side, is joining the cast of Privileged, TVGuide.com has learned exclusively.
“Clearly, I can’t get enough cute guys on this show!” Privileged creator Rina Mimoun quipped while sharing the news with us.
Buckley will appear in the final two episodes of the CW series’ 18-episode freshman season, playing the editor-in-chief of a magazine where both Megan and Will hope to be working. Considering the upcoming departure of Michael Cassidy’s Charlie, it’s safe to venture that this studly scribe will have the “write stuff” to complicate Megan’s romance with the boy next door.
A fourteen year old ghost will ask Melinda’s help in gathering his estranged family so the truth of how he dies can be unraveled in the new ‘Ghost Whisperer’.
A preview to the new episode of “Ghost Whisperer” is available. On Friday, January 9 the show will return with an episode called “Life on the Line” where Melinda thinks that a ghost call 911 for help.
Melinda will assist a family in turmoil after a freak incident involving the death of their 14-year-old. The deceased boy wants his divorced parents and estranged brother reunite so that they can finally discuss the cause of his death. Meanwhile, Jim who assists Melinda in the case, may have his memory back. Also, Delia has her first haunting and discovers why sometimes it’s easier to be a skeptic than a believer.
“Life on the Line” will present Sharon Lawrence (“NYPD Blue”) as Elena Bancroft, the mother of the ghost. – Ace Showbiz
