LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - "Caroline in the City" and "SpaceCamp" star Lea
Thompson is set to guest star on NBC's "Ed." The "Casual Sex?" and "Howard
the Duck" thespian will do a three-episode arc playing Ed Stevens' (Tom
Cavanagh) ex-wife Liz.
Regular fans of "Ed" can be forgiven for saying, "But wait, didn't Ed's
ex-wife already appear in an episode? And wasn't she played by somebody who
totally wasn't Lea Thompson?"
Yes, Melissa Errico played Liz in the season two episode "Closure."
"Ed" obsessives may even be inclined to asked "But wait, wasn't Ed's ex-wife
played by Janeane Garofalo at some point?"
Yes, again. Garofalo played Liz in the show's original pilot, which was
turned down by CBS.
For now, though, there's only the "Some Kind of Wonderful" star.
Thompson's episodes will air in early 2004 and will find the former Mrs.
Stevens traveling to Stuckeyville with a business proposition for her
ex-husband. Liz's arrival will, quite naturally, stir things up as Ed plans
for his future with Carol (Julie Bowen).
Since making her big screen debut in 1983's "Jaws 3-D" and "All the Right
Moves," Thompson has assembled a career of hits ("Back to the Future" and
its sequels) and misses (Have we mentioned "Howard the Duck?"). Recent
television credits include the Lifetime drama "For the People" and the
telefilm "Stealing Christmas."
