Megan Mullally landed a role on the Starz comedy “Party Down,” playing new character Lydia Dunfree.

Lydia Dunfree leaves her small town behind to help her daughter pursue an acting career, picking up a job with the Party Down catering team. If you haven’t checked out Party Down yet, give it a try – it’s easily one of the funniest shows on television – sadly, Party Down’s new season doesn’t air until April 2010.

Starz “Party Down” Renewed for Second Season

“Party Down” is one of those great little comedies that it seems like no one is watching – Starz has decided to renew “Party Down” for a second season, and I highly recommend that you give it a look.

Starz Media will produce another 10 episodes of Party Down, from creator Rob Thomas.

Party Down’s stars Ken Marino, Adam Scott, Martin Starr, Ryan Hansen and Lizzy Caplan will return for the second season, but it’s uncertain if Jane Lynch will return since she’s now signed on as a regular on Fox’s “Glee.”

Here’s hoping Party Down doesn’t lose Jane Lynch!

The season one finale of Party Down airs this Friday, May 15.

Alexandra Wentworth (or Ali Wentworth, as she’s sometimes known) has been around for awhile, even if people are catching their first glimpse of the actress on Starz new series “Head Case.”

Alexandra Wentworth hasn’t been in a lot of things, but she’s appeared in some interesting roles, beginning with the sketch comedy series “In Living Color.” “Seinfeld” fans may know Alexandra Wentworth as Sheila in the Soup Nazi episode (do you remember he affectionate name for Jerry: “Schmoopie”?).

Ali Wentworth has also appeared in “Office Space” (playing girlfriend to Ron Livingston’s character), “Jerry Maguire,” “Trial and Error” and “The Real Blonde,” among a handful of others.

Alexandra Wentworth also had a short-lived talk show called “Living it Up! with Jack and Ali,” which she co-hosted with Jack Ford.

Alexandra Wentworth is married to George Stephanopoulos; the couple have two children.

Ali Wentworth plays Dr. Elizabeth Goode on “Head Case,” a therapist to the stars.
