Ugly Betty Spoiler: THAT Girl Is The Older Woman!

This is so cool in so many ways.  Remember in this week’s spoilers roundup post, I told you that Daniel was going to try to seduce “an older woman”?  Well, the casting has leaked out, and it couldn’t be more perfect:

According to inside sources, Marlo Thomas will be heading to Ugly Betty this season, guest starring as an advertising bigwig who has a thang for younger men. And you’ll never guess which younger man catches her eye—or, okay, actually, it’s probably completely obvious—one Mr. Daniel Meade, aka Eric Mabius.

Nice to see dear Danny boy on the other side of a May-December relationship for once, doncha think?

That Girl and Daniel Meade,this is too rich.  For those of you who aren’t old like me, That Girl was a 60’s sitcom starring Danny Thomas’ daughter.  Danny Thomas was a famous comedian from the…oh, never mind).  Anyway, of all the casting news this summer,this is the one I’m most excited about.  Her personality is so perfect for the character they’ve described.  I can’t wait.

I wonder if she’ll do a bedroom scene.  The idea partly weirds me out, and partly is intriguing.  I mean, back in the day, she was hot. 

Nevertheless, this is great news.  Go Marlo!
