Kat Dennings to Play One of Two Broke Girls for CBS

Here at Movieline HQ, we're unabashed Kat Dennings supporters -- and speaking for myself, that means even the atrocious-looking Thor will probably get my disposable income -- so the news that the Nick and Norah star is potentially headed to weekly television glory is a great way to close out the week. Dennings has been cast in the Michael Patrick King/Whitney Cummings-produced CBS pilot Two Broke Girls as Max, the broke-r of the two lead females who work at a Brooklyn diner while trying to raise cash for their big business venture. Sounds like How to Make It In America but awesome. [Deadline]
