Alyson Hannigan will soon be heading to THE MCCARTHYS.

According to Entertainment Weekly, the HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER alum will guest star on the freshman comedy's Christmas episode, set to air on Dec. 18.

Hannigan will "play Pam, Marjorie and Arthur's upstairs tenant 'who is sweet, but fresh from a break-up and broken-hearted. In order to cheer her up, Marjorie invites Pam to join the family for Christmas Eve, however, as Pam watches the McCarthys play their verycompetitive annual gift-exchange swap, she is shocked by how the family treats each other.'"

THE MCCARTHYS is a multi-camera comedy about a close-knit, sports-crazed Boston family whose somewhat athletically challenged son, Ronny, is chosen by his father to be his assistant high school basketball coach, much to the surprise of his more qualified siblings. Ronny wants nothing more than to move away, join the singles scene and find a partner. His distraught mother, Marjorie is not upset that her favorite son is gay, but that he wants to leave Boston and his family. Ronny's plans change, however, when his politically incorrect and outspoken father, Arthur stuns everyone with his choice for an assistant. Touched by his father's offer, Ronny embarks on a completely different future - and he can be sure that his loving family, including his twin brothers Sean and Gerard and his sister Jackie, are going to have a very vocal opinion about it
