FOX's OUR KIND OF PEOPLE
- Debbi Morgan has joined the cast of the upcoming drama starring Yaya DaCosta, Morris Chestnut and LeToya Luckett. She won a Daytime Emmy Award in 1989 for her supporting role in ABC's All My Children. She has recently recurred on Starz's Power and its spinoff Power Book II: Ghost.
- She will play Patricia Williams, Angela's (DaCosta) aunt, who moves with Angela and her teenage daughter Nikki (Alana Bright) to Martha's Vineyard. A real character, saucy and uninhibited, she's working class and makes no bones about it, but she has a lot of common sense when it comes to giving good advice to the sometimes overwhelmed Angela. Aunt Piggy is also hiding a few secrets of her own, including a connection to Oak Bluffs from many years ago.
