Laura Prepon joins Danny Wallace comedy

That '70s Show star Laura Prepon has joined the cast of ABC comedy Awkward Situations for Men, says The Hollywood Reporter.

The project is co-written by and stars UK comic Danny Wallace.

The programme takes its inspiration from Wallace's forthcoming book of the same name, in which his personality and behaviour clash with his new American neighbours.

Prepon has signed to portray Wallace's wife, a US native who works at a smoothie bar for a boss (Matt Letscher) with whom she was once romantically involved.
