Sarah Chalke recently starred in a short film titled “Party Guest” for the Responsibility Project. You can watch it below!

The story of a blind date that starts off promising — but for one major flaw.

The new comedy MAD LOVE, which stars Jason Biggs, Sarah Chalke, Judy Greer and Tyler Labine, has been picked up by CBS for mid-season.

Mad Love follows four single friends living in New York City – two who are falling in love and two who despise each other… at least for now. I hope the latter two are Judy Greer and Tyler Labine, now that would be perfect.

Matt Tarses and Jamie Tarses are the executive producers for Sony Pictures Entertainment in association with CBS Television Studios. Pamela Fryman directed the pilot.

Great cast and potential cute story, this has officially peeked my attention.

Sarah Chalke is in talks to co-star in the CBS comedy Mad Love, which is close to a 13-episode mid-season order at the network. She would replace Minka Kelly who was originally cast in the role. The project would reunite the Scrubs alumna with former Scrubs writer-producer Matt Tarses who created Mad Love and is executive producing it with Jamie Tarses.

Mad Love is an ensemble comedy about four friends in New York – Henry (Jason Biggs), Kate (Chalke), Larry (Tyler Labine) and Connie – who are looking for love. Connie was played in the pilot by Lizzy Caplan as a guest star and that role is now being recast as Caplan couldn’t commit to the series.

This is the second round of re-castings on Mad Love, which replaced Dan Fogler with Labine and Ashley Austin Morris with Caplan just before the pilot was shot. Chalke’s character Kate is described as a pretty, clean-scrubbed Midwestern who is a sweet but strong-willed romantic. She falls in love with Henry at the top of the Empire State Building and often tackles her cousin and best friend, Connie, to the ground in order to get her way.

Mad Love, produced by Sony TV and CBS Studios, is expected to be joined by the 20th TV-produced mid-season drama Chaos, whose pickup deal at CBS is said to be nearing completion. Shalke was in demand and did two pilots this year, ABC’s Freshmen and CBS’ Team Spitz, which also was produced by Sony.

From Deadline

Everyone wants a piece of Sarah Chalke.

Sources confirm to me exclusively that the in-demand Scrubs vet — who already scored a starring role in the ABC sitcom pilot Freshman — has booked a second pilot, the high school-set CBS comedy Team Spitz.

Chalke, who is technically billed as a guest star since the project is in second position to Freshman, will play a guidance counselor. The cast also includes Daily Show alum Rob Riggle as football coach.
