Top Five Guest Stars We’d Like to See on “One Big Happy”

Peeps, I’m so excited for Liz Feldman‘s new show One Big Happy I can’t even deal with it. A lesbian protagonist? Written and created by Liz Feldman? Produced by Ellen DeGeneres? It’s like someone read the contents of my dream journal and put them on network television. I’m hoping we see cameos from both comediennes (seriously, I want to see Liz flirt awkwardly with Elisha Cuthbert) but it started me wondering: Who else would I like to see on the show?

Since The L Word wrapped, Hailey has been mostly focused on her band Uh Huh Her, and has taken some small dramatic roles. But Alice fans know that she has terrific comic timing, and would be a great addition to any comedy. Also, she is the mother of Liz Feldman’s finger babies, so it’s only natural she would show up for some more hijinks.

Danielle Brooks burst onto the scene with her portrayal of Taystee on Orange is the New Black, proving herself as a talented actress adept at both comedy and drama. She made us laugh, she made us cry, and best of all she made us dance. This woman is golden. She also had sex with Jessa on Girls.

Kate McKinnon is funny, fearless, and beyond talented. I mean, she’s gonna be a friggin’ ghostbuster! What more would you want out of a guest star? And since she bears a strong resemblance to Cuthbert, why not bring her in as the wacky sister? More Kate McKinnon on our TVs is never a bad thing.

Comedic icon and recent Kennedy Center honoree Lily Tomlin is starring in a new Netflix show called Grace and Frankie with Jane Fonda that I will watch the crap out of. But she’s always a wonderful guest star and would be a huge asset to any series. If you haven’t seen her playing Lisa Kudrow’s therapist mother on Web Therapy, do yourself a favor and check her out.

Charlyne Yi is a hilarious actress and writer, who appeared in Knocked Up, Paper Heart and House M.D. She is a delightfully awkward addition to any cast, and needs to be in more projects. She also used to be in a band called The Glass Beef, which might be the best band name in the history of ever. This lady is a certified triple threat. Do yourself a favor and get to know her!
