GO ON: ALIAS’ Michael Vartan to Guest Star

As if I needed another reason to adore NBC’s new comedy series GO ON — a network rep has confirmed that former ALIAS star Michael Vartan will be guest starring on an upcoming episode of the show as a hockey player.

And it seems like I’m not the only one thrilled by this casting. Vartan, who is an avid hockey fan, tweeted, “Cameo on @MatthewPerry show “Go on” with @Jeremy_Roenick , getting paid to play hockey! #proathlete4aday!”

Given that Perry’s character, Ryan, is a radio sportscaster — who finds himself unwillingly in a support group following the death of his wife — here’s hoping that he and Vartan get to have a decent amount of interaction in the episode.

Vartan’s guest spot doesn’t have an air date yet, but we’ll be sure to update you when we find out more. In the meantime, GO ON has its timeslot premiere Tuesday, September 11th at 9 PM on NBC.
