Impastor Returns in September on TV Land; Remembering Character Actor Stuart Nisbet

Hitmen, cops, prostitutes and parishioners are all part of Pastor Buddy's daily life in his newly adopted sleepy town. Starring Michael Rosenbaum, the second season of Impastor picks up with Buddy's life hanging in the balance as he tries to escape capture from both the police and a dangerous criminal from his past. All the while he must juggle his godly responsibilities to his still unsuspecting staff. Season Two of Impastor premieres on Wednesday, September 28 at 10:30pm ET/PT following the season three premiere of Younger on TV Land. Impastor, a single-camera comedy from Christopher Vane (Wings), stars Michael Rosenbaum (Smallville), Sara Rue (Less Than Perfect), Mircea Monroe (Episodes), Mike Kosinski (The Second City Chicago), and David Rasche (Ugly Betty). The series revolves around Buddy Dobbs, a gambling, pot-smoking slacker on the run from a loan shark, who steals a man's identity and ends up posing as the new gay pastor in a small, tight-knit town. Though he's tempted to immediately run off with the pastor's money, Buddy has a change of heart when he realizes that the people there, including his prim church assistant Dora (Rue), actually like this new and semi-improved alter ego…and he kind of likes them back. Watch the trailer for the new season!

Character actor Stuart Nisbet, who guest starred in many sitcoms in his career which spanned nearly six decades, has died. He died on June 23 at USC Verdugo Hills Hospital in Glendale, California. Mr. Nisbet was 82.

Mr. Nisbet was a fine character actor. We remember him as the high school principal Mr. Faraday in the first season "Fonzie Drops In" episode of Happy Days. He was never a sitcom regular, but you likely saw him in some of his 170+ television and film appearances. He will be greatly missed.
