'Hellcats': Jeff Hephner replaces Ben Browder as new football coach

"Hellcats," the new cheerleading drama produced by "Smallville" star Tom Welling has just added Jeff Hephner to its team, reports Fancast. Hephner, who many may remember from "The O.C." as Sandy Cohen's colleague whose friendship with Marissa Cooper bordered on inappropriate, will play Red Raymond.
Red is a Lancer University alumni who returns to his alma mater to give the football team a much-needed boost. He won't only cause a stir on the field, though.
As Zap2it first reported, Red will jump into a love triangle with D.B Woodside's Dr. Derrick Altman, the cheerleaders' physician, and his girlfriend, cheerleading coach Vanessa (Sharon Leal). Derrick and Vanessa have been in a stable relationship for a while, but her history with Red may cause a crack in the foundation.
In the "Hellcats" pilot, the role was played by Ben Browder ("Stargate SG-1"), but when Browder dropped out the role was re-tooled significantly.

I had no idea Browder was in this show...I might have watched it with him in the cast. If he left on his own accord, I hope it was for a better opportunity. He's awesome and very funny, and deserves great roles.
Starscape SG1?? Maybe you should not be writing this article. Try FARSCAPE and STARGATE SG-1.
Jesus, do some bloody fact checking/editing. Browder was in Farscape, as well as Stargate SG-1.

Starscape. Haha. This site never proof reads. EVER. I find at least one mistake in every article.
My bad! Thanks for the heads up, guys. Fixed it now.
I agree with LLC - I would've at least given it a try with Ben Browder in it. Now it just looks like any other teen drama...
What is this 'My bad' crap? Doesn't anyone know how to say I'm sorry anymore?
This is good news if you ask me. Browder deserves doing something good, and not crappy CW show about cheerleading and football....god knows we don't need anymore of those!
You commenters are nuts, you do realize?
That said, Jeff Hephner is a great actor and great addition. Hope this show has some real collegiate depth and appeals to more than just girls.
