It looks like Leah Remini is back at CBS full time. Deadline reports the King of Queens star will be a series regular on season two of Kevin Can Wait.
The sitcom revolves around Kevin Gable (Kevin James), a newly retired police officer who lives in Massapequa, New York. The cast also includes Erinn Hayes, Mary-Charles Jones, James DiGiacomo, Taylor Spreitler, Ryan Cartwright, Leonard Earl Howze, Gary Valentine, and Lenny Venito.
Remini recently guest-starred as undercover police officer Vanessa Cellucci on Kevin Can Wait‘s two-part season one finale. The appearance was a reunion for Remini and James, who used to co-star on the CBS sitcom King of Queens.
Now, it looks like that reunion will be long term as Remini will be joining the cast of Kevin Can Wait full time next season. Season two is slated to debut on CBS on September 25th.
What do you think? Are you a fan of Kevin Can Wait? Are you glad Remini is joining the cast full time?
Always loved both Kevin & Leah could not be happier with the whole gang back to make me laugh……
Am I reading this correctly? The actress who plays Donna is in fact staying? If she is and Leah Remini is going to be added to the cast then I will watch the show for the 2nd season. However, if Erinn Hayes is gone, I will no longer watch the show as previously stated.
I agree, the story line with Erin (Donna) was good and she was perfect…story line now, boring, so is Leah (even tho I do like her) Love her in King of Queens…I’m so disappointed … not going to watch anymore.
I must also say I like Errin Hays as well , she is great
Love Kevin Can Wait also love Leah remini good job!
I don’t watch it, but I’m sooo excited about the two being together that, now I will !
It was fun for 2 shows but NOT as a regular. Let her find her own show! I like his wife and future son in law the best on that show. They should be more air time, not Leah Remini.
I totally agree.
