Helen Hunt May Become The Replacement
Filed under: TV News > Old People
We told you last week the sad news that actress Maura Tierney was diagnosed with cancer and thus pulled out of her new series Parenthood.
Well, a replacement has been just announced and it seems Helen Hunt might be filling the spot.
She's still is considering the offer and we're sure all those Mad About You fans are aching to see her return to television.
If Hunt comes on board, expect to see her and the show on NBC as a mid-season replacement. The show was meant to debut in fall but due to Maura's illness, it had to be pushed back.

Luv Her !
I hope Maura gets better!
The big screen didn't treat her too well,
time to go back to the little screen
Cool. I love Helen Hunt.
whoever did the color job on her hair,,,,fabulous!
sad it won't be maura — will love to see helen on tv again
Wait? What? Could it be? A Hollywood actress who isn't using Botox? *gashp!*
she is one of the bitchiest actresses in hollywood. she deserves nothing. people used to watch her rehearsals and be shocked at what an ungrateful beyotch she was.
Re: LoserBaby! – AND SHE IS WORKING IT, ISN'T SHE? I thought the same thing too! But she's gorgeous the way she is. Yeah - so she's got some lines, SO WHAT? I bet Demi Moore wouldn't look this good if she stopped getting fillers. In fact, I bet since her face is so used to them, her face would probably melt! ROCK ON HELEN!
Yay! A natural, beautiful great actress! Love her!
Yeeeesssss! I'll watch this show if she's in it!
She looks gorgeous - especially in comparison to the generic perfection of all the other hollywood females (even the ones half her age or more) whom, to be honest, just downright scare me with how plastic they appear.
MAURA GET WELL HONEY FIGHT IT
Great choice!! Altho I love Maura and wish her well, I think Helen will do a fantastic job!
Get Well Soon Maura!
Helen looks haggard. I know she got shit for how she looked when filming in Minnesota a couple of years ago, and that she had a lot of work done after that. But if this is how she looks now, her next role will be to play Granny Clampett in the re-make of "The Beverly Hillbillies." Hollywood is vicious: Loves you one minute; spits you out the next.
She's a great actress! love her. She looks great. I hope Maura gets well soon!
I was excited when I heard Maura Tierney was going to be in the Parenthood reboot. BUT, Helen Hunt is someone I would be happy never hearing from again. She was fine on Mad About You, but I haven't liked her in anything else I've seen her in. Hopefully the AMAZING rest of the cast will overshadow her. Is anyone else bothered that they've changed the surname from Buckman to Braverman? Buckman is my middle name, and I'm a little insulted. They should make it Buckman again, so Helen Hunt's two television characters will share the same last name, although her Mad About You character's name was spelled Buchman. But, I digress. Kind of.
I think that's fabulous!! I would watch her show!
Yay! Helen Hunt! Yay!
a shriveling noise
She looks dang good for an "old person". Yes, there are wrinkles and all but she looks awesome for her age!!
well both women are great..hope maura gets better
Have you seen Helen Hunt lately? She has aged quite a bit and looks like she's in her 60's. It will take a lot of work to make her look good…
I hope Maura gets better. But Helen is good too. I've missed her.
YES YES YES!!!! her and LEELEE SOBIESKI must play mother/daughter or sisters in a movie soon!!
mmmmm where has bitch been all these while?
Love her but she needs to moisturize! She looks way older than she is - does she still smoke? Quit!
She's a cool lady, I'll be watching for her!
I will miss not seeing Moira, but Helen is a GREAT replacement choice. I miss seeing her on TV/FILM. Great choice!
Ugh. Helen Hunt looks like a nightmare.
HELEN THE HAIR ……. All she did on her old tv series was push her hair back with her hand, a million times, that it wore us out watching. Why doesn't she pin her hair back instead of bringing her hand up a million times for effect? Awful acting.
Admittedly,I don't watch the show. I do,however LOVE Helen Hunt. I hope she does well in whatever she does.
