The catering crew from Party Down is back. And they're all dressed up and going nowhere. The all-new season finds our dreamers stuck working for tips while struggling to get the life they really want. Now that Henry (Adam Scott) is finally the manager, he's not sure how to feel about it. However, after failing to start his own business, Ron (Ken Marino) would trade places with Henry in a heartbeat.
Back from her stint doing stand-up on a cruise ship, Casey (Lizzy Caplan) is hoping to break out as a comedienne. Kyle (Ryan Hansen) is handsome, talented, and on the verge of being a star. At least in his own mind. And Roman (Martin Starr) is still waiting for the world to see his genius. The newest member of the staff, Lydia (Megan Mullally), is in L.A. to achieve stardom for her 13-year-old daughter, Escapade. Follow this ensemble cast as they work all-new parties, mingle with the guests and dabble in their dramas.
Following on the heels of
last week's news that the series had been canceled, Starz/Anchor Bay is moving forward with a DVD release of what now apparently becomes the show's final season:
Party Down - Season 2 rings the dinner bell on
September 28th. These 10 episodes culminate in a return of Jane Lynch (now seen in
Glee) as her first season character "Constance Carmell."
Megan Mullally (
Will & Grace) joins a cast that includes Adam Scott (
Parks and Recreation), Ken Marino (
Veronica Mars, Reaper) and Lizzy Caplan (
True Blood, Hot Tub Time Machine). Other people you'll recognize include appearances by Aviva, Joey Lauren Adams, J.K. Simmons, Andrea Savage, Thomas Lennon, Loretta Devine, Steve Guttenberg (as himself) and Patrick Duffy (also as himself). Cost is $29.97 SRP, but you can
pre-order it from Amazon at a discount.
