So, any Numb3rs fans out there missing Peter Macnicol as much as I am?
I heard he's playing a role on 24 this season--I don't watch it so I have no idea how permanent a character he looks to be. And even as I type that, I realize how dumb my next question is. Is there any scuttlebutt about whether he's likely to be gone from Numb3rs forever?
But of course no one ever knows who's going to make it through another season of 24, do they?

I actually don't watch 24, but my wife and I love Numb3rs. And yes, we miss Larry.

For a while Larry' character on 24 seemed like a real heavy, an out-and-out villain, the president's chief of staff who seemed to be joining in with a cabal planning to assassinate the president. But then he turned on them and tried to blow the whistle on them, but he was caught and left tied to a pipe somewhere. He will probably be killed in a few more episodes. Then he can return to NUMB3RS. After all, on NUMB3RS he's just off playing astronaut for a while.

Oh, man. I haven't seen the last three episodes of 24 yet. So that kind of sucked.

I don't watch either show. But Diane Farr was on Lovelines last week with Dr Drew. She used to do the MTV show with Drew and Adam. She seemed to indicate that he was not done with the numbers show, that the producers were letting him do the appearances on 24 and would be back.

I first remember Diane Farr from Roswell. It was always a treat when she was on.

OK, I'm reassured to know it looks like Larry will be coming back. I like Diane Farr's character on Numb3rs now, but when she first started I was like, "hey, where's the other girl?" I can't even remember anything about the woman whose place she took anymore.

She was Samantha Lloyd. She starred in Sliders before this.

Sorry, TL, I thought by now everyone who was going to had seen it. You record "24" three episodes ahead? You must work nights.

Diane Farr is a pretty smart chick, I enjoyed the Loveline episode with her.
