CBS's upcoming vampire comedy pilot, 'Eternally Yours,' is set to bring a fresh, humorous take on the immortal life, expanding its ensemble with new talent. This single-camera production, envisioned by the creators of the successful series 'Ghosts,' promises a blend of eternal romance and contemporary family dynamics, centered around a vampire couple navigating modern challenges.

An Immortal Love Story Meets Modern Family Chaos

New Faces Join the 'Eternally Yours' Ensemble

The CBS network's highly anticipated comedy pilot, 'Eternally Yours,' is broadening its cast with three notable actors. Rose Abdoo, known for her roles in 'Hacks' and 'Gilmore Girls,' Tristan Michael Brown from 'Pretty Freakin' Scary' and 'Bunk'd,' and Shylo Molina of 'The Afterparty' and 'The Really Loud House,' have all been confirmed as series regulars for the project.

Creative Minds Behind the Pilot

This new comedy venture comes from the creative partnership of Joe Port and Joe Wiseman, the duo behind the acclaimed CBS comedy series 'Ghosts.' Their proven track record in crafting engaging and humorous narratives sets a promising stage for 'Eternally Yours,' hinting at another potential hit for the network.

Star-Studded Cast: New Additions and Previously Announced Talents

Abdoo, Brown, and Molina will join an already impressive lineup that includes Ed Weeks, Jaren Lewison, Allegra Edwards, Helen J. Shen, and Parker Young. The full descriptions of the roles taken on by the new cast members offer a glimpse into the quirky characters that will populate this unique vampire world.

'Eternally Yours': A Synopsis of Immortal Romance and Human Complications

The official description of 'Eternally Yours' outlines an everlasting love story between two vampires, portrayed by Allegra Edwards and Ed Weeks, who have shared five centuries of marriage. Their eternal bliss is put to the test when their daughter, played by Helen J. Shen, introduces her human boyfriend, portrayed by Jaren Lewison, into their ancient, nocturnal world.

Behind-the-Scenes Talent and Production Details

Joe Port and Joe Wiseman serve not only as writers but also as executive producers for 'Eternally Yours.' They are joined in executive production by Eric Tannenbaum, Kim Tannenbaum, and Jason Wang. Trent O'Donnell will take on the dual role of director and executive producer, with CBS Studios overseeing the production of the pilot.

Character Spotlights: Unveiling the New Roles

Rose Abdoo steps into the role of Phyllis, a woman who met her husband, Jesse (Parker Young), in the 80s. Unbeknownst to her, she lives among a family of vampires and is the mother to half-vampire twins. Her character offers a comedic exploration of blissful ignorance, with her memories of vampire life constantly being erased. Tristan Michael Brown portrays Mort, one of the half-vampire fraternal twins. Mort embodies the struggles of being an 'average' hybrid, possessing the unique yet underwhelming ability to read the family dog's mind, all while aspiring to be a stand-up comedian. Shylo Molina takes on the character of Henry, Mort's fraternal twin. Henry is depicted as exceptionally handsome, akin to a romance novel protagonist, gifted with superhuman strength and speed. Despite his perfections, he carries the burden of the world's pain, presenting a dramatic contrast to his brother's comedic ambitions.
