Lauren Graham to Join Matthew Perry on CBS's ODD COUPLE Reboot

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Lauren Graham will sign off on the final season of ABC's 'Parenthood' and head right over to CBS's upcoming reboot of THE ODD COUPLE for a guest starring role.

Graham will appear in the comedy, based on Neil Simon's Broadway play, as Gaby, the ex-wife of Matthew Perry's Oscar Madison. According to THR, "Gaby and Oscar lived through a contentious marriage - and divorce - but beneath all the bickering, there remains a deep connection and affection between them."

Graham has previously joined Perry on Aaron Sorkin's Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip and ABC's short-lived series Go On. She appeared as "Miss Adelaide" opposite Oliver Platt's "Nathan Detroit" in the 2008 Broadway production of GUYS AND DOLLS.

Graham is well known for her critically acclaimed performance as Lorelai Gilmore on "Gilmore Girls," for which she was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for "Best Actress in a Drama Series," two Screen Actors Guild Awards for "Outstanding Female Actor in a Drama Series" and two Television Critics Association Awards for "Individual Achievement in Drama and Comedy." Additionally, she has earned two TEEN CHOICE AWARDS for "Choice Parental Unit" and a "Best Actress" nod from Viewers for Quality Television. Her many feature film roles include the current Flash of Genius opposite Greg Kinnear for Universal and Spyglass Entertainment, as well as Universal's blockbuster comedy Evan Almighty, alongside Steve Carell, Because I Said So, opposite Diane Keaton and Mandy Moore, Bad Santa, opposite Billy Bob Thornton, The Pacifier, The Amateurs with Jeff Bridges, Nightwatch, and One True Thing, with Renee Zellweger and Meryl Streep. She recently starred alongside Matthew Perry and Hillary Swank in Birds of America, which premiered this January at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, and completed production on The Dream of the Romans, starring Jeff Daniels. She last appeared onstage in 2002 in the Williamstown Theatre Festival production of Once in a Lifetime.

THE ODD COUPLE stars Matthew Perry as endearing slob Oscar Madison and Thomas Lennon as uptight neat freak Felix Unger, two former college buddies who become unlikely roommates after the demise of their marriages. It's not long after Oscar lets Felix move in that Oscar fears he's made a monumental mistake. However, despite how exasperated they make each other, these mismatched friends agree they can help each other move on from their divorces and somehow make their crazy living arrangement work.

The series will premiere during the 2014-2015 season on the CBS Television Network.
