Louisiana stars shine on CBS

When the new CBS fall season premieres next week, look for several stars with Louisiana connections.

Actor Barry Shabaka Henley of the comedy “Bob Hearts Abishola” (premieres on WWL-TV Sept. 23 at 7:30 p.m.) is from New Orleans, as is “The Neighborhood” co-star Marcel Spears. Judd Lormand of “SEAL Team” is from Lafayette. “Young Sheldon” co-star Annie Potts makes her primary home in New Orleans, where her husband, James Hayman, is an executive producer on “NCIS: New Orleans.”

Also, look for former “NCIS” star and New Orleans native Pauley Perrette later this season in the CBS sitcom “Broke.”
