The Emmy Award-winning hit original, THE STARTER WIFE, starring Debra Messing returns this Fall focusing on the post-divorce adventures of Molly Kagan (Messing) as she begins a new chapter in her life. On the heels of its stellar ratings and awards success, USA has brought back the hit miniseries of 2007 as a series with ten exciting episodes, with Emmy Award-winner Messing returning to star and now serving as executive producer. This season, the series is being filmed entirely in Los Angeles. THE STARTER WIFE will premiere as a two-hour episode on Friday, October 10 at 9/8c on USA Network.

Reprising their roles are three-time Emmy Award-winner Judy Davis ("Life with Judy Garland: Me and My Shadow") as Joan McAllister and Chris Diamantopoulos ("Behind the Camera: Mork & Mindy") as Rodney Evans - Molly's two best friends. Also returning this season as a special guest star is Joe Mantegna ("Criminal Minds") as Lou Manahan, former studio head and former boyfriend of Molly. Davis won an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Miniseries or Movie for her role as Joan in 2007. This is the first time both Davis and Diamantopoulos have been cast as regulars in a series.

Joining the regular cast of THE STARTER WIFE are David Alan Basche ("Lipstick Jungle") as Kenny Kagan, Molly's ex-husband; Danielle Nicolet ("Heartland") as Liz Marsh, Molly's new friend and the wife of an LA pro-baseball player; Brielle Barbusca ("Hope & Faith") as Jaden, Molly and Kenny's daughter; and Hart Bochner ("Die Hard") as Zach Phillips, Molly's new love interest and writing class professor. Guest stars include Reggie Austin ("Notes from the Underbelly") as Devon Marsh, Liz's husband; Ronny Cox ("The Agency") as Pappy, Joan's husband; Daniel Gerroll ("Cashmere Mafia") as David Shea, a controversial movie star who Joan meets in rehab; James Black ("All of Us") as Felix, a successful action star with a secret; Krista Allen ("Unscripted") as Eve, Molly's nemesis at her daughter's school; Alia Shawkat ("Arrested Development") as Robin, a troubled girl that Joan befriends in rehab; Jane Leeves ("Frasier") as Alizee, Lou's fiancée and someone who seems all too familiar to Molly and Eddie Cibrian ("Ugly Betty") as Detective Eddie LaRoche, a detective who investigates some strange goings-on in Molly's life.
