Has Peter MacNicol been written out of
Numb3rs? I sure hope not!
It's unlikely that MacNicol's character Larry Fleinhardt will get back from his space-shuttle trip soon. MacNicol has joined the cast of another numerical series, Fox's 24, for its sixth season, which begins Jan. 14 and 15.
MacNicol will play an adviser to the new president, Wayne Palmer (DB Woodside), brother of the late David Palmer. But it's possible MacNicol might return to Numb3rs sometime -- when you consider the mortality rate on 24.
