Lisa Kudrow is joining Scandal and we can hardly contain our excitement!

According to Deadline:

A Friend-ly gladiator is joining the gang on Shonda Rhimes’ hot Washington DC drama Scandal.Friends alumna Lisa Kudrow has been tapped for a recurring role on the ABC series’ upcoming third season.

In typical Shonda fashion, details about Kudrow’s character are kept under wraps, but I’ve learned that she plays a politician. On the Kerry Washington-starring drama, Kudrow is joining her long-time producing partner Dan Bucatinsky, who received an Emmy nomination for his recurring role as Cyrus’ (Jeff Perry) long-suffering husband.

This marks Kudrow’s biggest series acting commitment in a long time. Since the end of Friends and her follow-up series, the cult HBO comedy The Comeback, Kudrow has been focused on producing as well as her online-turned-TV improv show Web Therapy.

Hurry up, October 3rd!
