'The forgotten': '24' star Elisha Cuthbert pulling double duty

elisha-cuthbert.jpgElisha Cuthbert is joining "the forgotten" on ABC starting February 2010.

Cuthbert has been cast in a recurring role -- Maxine Denver, a Chicago professional who is "forced to put her skepticism of 'amateur detectives' aside when The Forgotten Network begins investigating a case close to home," according to the ABC press release.

We've already seen Cuthbert reprising her role of Kim Bauer on at least one episode of "24" on FOX, so it looks like this girl next door is pulling double network duty come spring. There's no word yet on just how many episodes of either show Cuthbert is doing, but still... that's a lotta blonde after the holidays.

"The forgotten" also stars Christian Slater, Michelle Borth, Heather Stephens, Rochelle Aytes, Bob Stephenson and Anthony Carrigan. It airs Tuesdays at 10 pm ET/PT on ABC.

I've never watched the Forgotten, but I sure will watch all of her episodes. Either online or on TV

How are you doing, Hercule?

forgotten is one of my favorite new shows of the year. I recommend it to anyone looking for a thoughtful whodunit.

Agreed, The Forgotten is one of those decent shows that doesn't take the subject matter lightly, but doesn't slam you over the head with it, either. I'm glad ABC is keeping with it, even though the ratings aren't exactly stellar. Elisha Cuthbert still looks too young to be playing some of the parts she has been lately, but it's always nice to see her.

They haven't canceled The Forgotten yet? I forget about it all the time.

Me too! I'd watch The Forgotten if she was on!!!!!!!!!!!!
