Katie Cassidy Heads To "Georgetown"

Katie Cassidy Heads To "Georgetown"

You've got to love pilot casting season, if only because it means an endless parade of nubile young actresses (or "goddesses," if you're talking Sheen-speak) will be added to pilots with the hopes that their sexuality will help with a series pick-up. With that in mind, say hello, courtesy of Deadline, to Katie Cassidy and Georgetown.

The prospective series, which stars James Wolk (Lone Star) as a presidential speechwriter, sounds like a combination of The O.C. and The West Wing. Cassidy, formerly of the failed Melrose Place reboot and Gossip Girl, has been tapped to play "a smart and quick-witted junior staffer in the White House Communications Office with connections to the First Lady." She's also a model. Of course.

Look for Georgetown to hit ABC next fall...if we're lucky.
