Emmy Award-winning actress Jaime Pressly has been cast in the lead role for TV Land's new pilot JENNIFER FALLS it was announced today by Keith Cox, Executive Vice President of Development and Original Programming for the network.

Pressly, best known for her work on the NBC series "My Name is Earl," will play the lead character, Jennifer Doyle, in this multi-camera pilot.

With her teenage daughter in tow, Jennifer has to face her new life, trying to reconnect with old friends in her hometown and making ends meet as a waitress in her brother's bar.

"It's amazing to have someone like Jaime Pressly on board for 'Jennifer Falls,'" said Cox. "We loved this script from the moment we read it, and Jaime just brings the role to life perfectly."
