Comedian Jane Lynch
Ready to
Party Down

in New Series

The Starz original series Party Down , starring Jane Lynch, premieres Friday night. The show -- about a group of aspiring actors working as caterers, which also stars Adam Scott, Ken Marino ( The State ), and Lizzy Caplan ( Mean Girls ), and features guest stars like Ed Begley Jr. and Kristen Bell -- proves that good shows can be made for little money. Lynch plays a veteran of both the acting and catering industry who seems to have no boundaries when it comes to her coworkers or the guests she serves. The show was created and is executive-produced by Robb Thomas ( Veronica Mars ) along with John Enbom, Paul Rudd, and Dan Etheridge. Below is a scene from the pilot directed by Fred Savage.
