Rosie O'Donnell to Guest Star on TV Land's HAPPILY DIVORCED

TVGuide.com reports that Broadway vet and talk show host Rosie O'Donnell is set to guest star on TV Land's comedy series HAPPILY DIVORCED. SNL alum Dan Aykroyd will also make a guest star appearance on the show. 

The comedians will appear on seperate episodes of the show which are both scheduled to air this May. O'Donnell will portray Katie O'Grady, described as "a high school friend of Fran (Fran Drescher) and Judi (Tichina Arnold) who helps Fran learn a lesson about her relationship with her overbearing mother Dori (Rita Moreno)." Aykroyd will play a potential love interest for Drescher's Fran. The pair will be fixed up by Fran's ex husband Peter, played by John Michael Higgins. 

O'Donnell's latest talk show on the OWN network was recently canceled after five months on the air. The actress, who produced the 2003 Broadway show Taboo, has starred on Broadway in Grease (Rizzo), Seussical (Cat in the Hat) and Fiddler on the Roof (Golde), and off-Broadway in Love, Loss and What I Wore, as well as regionally in Find Me.
