Pilot News: Battlestar's Helfer Tries Shrink Rap

Tricia Helfer in Burn Notice by Dan Littlejohn/USA Network Photo

As part of her holding deal with Fox, Tricia Helfer ( Battlestar Galactica) has landed the female lead in Inseparable, a drama pilot from Shaun Cassidy ( Invasion) and revolving around a partially paralyzed forensic psychiatrist (Lloyd Owen) with a Jekyll-and-Hyde-type split personality. (His alter ego is a master criminal, and one not at all paralyzed, I would guess. Not that the partially paralyzed cannot serve as capable crooks; I just imagine it would impair the traditionally desired "quick getaway." But I digress.)

Per the Reporter, Helfer - whom I actually just spied while screening the most excellent Burn Notice season premiere - will play a shrink who evaluates suspects for the police - and thus, probably on more than one occasion, casts a curious eye on Owen's antihero. - Matt Mitovich
