Briga Heelan is rejoining NBC's midseason comedy Undateable as a recurring guest star. She will reprise the role of Nicki she played in the pilot as a guest star. Heelan stars as the female lead on TBS' new comedy Ground Floor and did the Undateable pilot as a favor to writer Bill Lawrence. Lawrence wanted Heelan to do both series - but the schedules couldn't work out and Megan Park (The Secret Life of the American Teenager) was tapped to replace Heelan. Now, the schedules have synced up enough for Heelan to do both. She is currently booked to appear in 3 episodes with Park no longer attached to the series.

Both will appear in the eighth episode of the season.
