Glad to hear that

I am liking all of Cathy's interaction with various other ppl as well - Andrea, her husband etc

^ Cathy has great interaction with everyone.

Lennie1984 · 03-02-2011, 07:13 PM

Finally saw episode 4 when Cathy steals the lobster lol

And yay for more Todd and Cathy scenes, i liked them looking at the house and the kitchen scene was the best and also when she says at the windows, dont you wish time would stand still, and the way Todd looks at her

The way Cathy is, anybody would fall in love with her if they handle her quirkyness right now..... hint hint Todd

Anyways i can see this goes way beyond doctor/patient thing

Cant wait to see more episodes, i am slowly going through them lol

LOS ANGELES, CA – (March 31, 2011) – Hot British film star Hugh Dancy and indie film queen Parker Posey have signed on as guest stars for the second season of the hit SHOWTIME comedy series THE BIG C, premiering June 27th. Dancy will star in at least 6 episodes as Lee, a charming cancer patient who, after a rocky start, befriends Cathy (Laura Linney) during their time in an experimental drug trial. Meanwhile, Posey signs on for 4 episodes playing Poppy, an older woman who develops an unlikely relationship with Cathy’s teenaged son, Adam (Gabriel Basso). Recently announced guest star Alan Alda will play Dr. Atticus Sherman, Cathy’s oncologist.

THE BIG C is currently shooting in Stamford, Connecticut and will premiere on SHOWTIME on Monday, June 27th at 10:30 PM, immediately following the premiere of WEEDS. THE BIG C is created and written by Darlene Hunt, who serves as executive producer, along with showrunner Jenny Bicks, Laura Linney, Neil H. Moritz and Vivian Cannon. It is produced by Sony Pictures Television.

Having appeared in many UK films and TV shows, Dancy became well-known to American audiences for his work in the blockbuster military action drama Black Hawk Down, Dancy has also made his mark in notable romantic comedies, including Confessions of a Shopaholic and The Jane Austen Book Club. He is Emmy-nominated for his turn as Earl of Essex in the mini-series Elizabeth I. Dancy will next be seen starring in the acclaimed feature Martha Marcy May Marlene in the fall, and will also be seen in Our Idiot Brother in August. He will voice the role of Marshall Mallow in the upcoming animated feature Dorothy of Oz.

Posey had breakout roles in several successful indie films of the ‘90s, including Dazed and Confused, Party Girl and suBurbia. But she made an indelible mark on audiences with her hilarious work in several of mockumentarian Christopher Guest’s films, including Waiting for Guffman, Best in Show, A Mighty Wind and For Your Consideration. She earned a Golden Globe nomination for her work in the 2002 mini-series Hell on Heels: The Battle of Mary Kay. Additional film credits include House of Yes, You’ve Got Mail, Superman Returns and The Anniversary Party. On television, she has made notable guest appearances on Boston Legal and Will & Grace.

THE BIG C stars Laura Linney in her Golden Globe®-winning role as Cathy Jamison, a reserved, Minneapolis wife/mother/teacher whose cancer diagnosis forces her to shake up her life and find hope, humor and the light side of a dark situation. This season, Cathy progresses from Denial to Anger on the grief cycle and will become an all-out warrior in the fight against her Stage 4 melanoma.

Can't wait for s2!

xlennie · 05-30-2011, 01:08 PM

Same here!

smoothaise · 05-30-2011, 01:09 PM

s1 kinda hit u hard like a ton of bricks when it came to an end. I wonder how Adam is going to be now that he knows... if he'll act out or be nice/respectful. We shall see...

xlennie · 05-30-2011, 01:13 PM

I can't wait to see how Adam is now. He wasn't always that nice to Cathy in the first season.. obviously. So I'm curious to see what's changed.

Lennie1984 · 05-30-2011, 03:26 PM

Is Todd in the 2nd season?, i so liked him lol

xlennie · 05-31-2011, 03:35 AM

I don't see why he wouldn't be? I hope he's in the 2nd season. I really like him.

smoothaise · 06-27-2011, 05:56 PM

I watched the premiere early, via OnDemand. It was good. I like where they are heading this season. I watched the last two episodes of s1 beforehand.

Ironically, while I have a Todd/Cathy icon, I still love

her with Paul, I do. Oliver Platt is hard to find unlikable on this show.

i never learn · 06-27-2011, 09:12 PM

loved the premiere. thank god this show didn't fck with it's formula from last season.
