reports that two-time Oscar winner Dianne Wiest (Hannah and Her Sisters, Bullets Over Broadway) has joined the cast of The Return of Jezebel James. The half hour comedy is described by IMDb as follows: "When a newly single professional woman (Parker Posey) learns she's unable to conceive, she looks to her estranged younger sister (Lauren Ambrose) to carry her baby for her." Wiest will play their mother. The show will utilize a laugh track and the three camera set up that is quickly becoming an undesirable relic.
