Felicity Huffman celebrity spoilers show that the Emmy Award-winning actress is going from the big house to the small screen. According to Deadline, the former Desperate Housewives actress will appear in an upcoming ABC comedy series.
Huffman was one of many rich and famous folk, including fellow felon Laurie Loughlin, aka Aunt Becky, who got caught paying a con man in exchange for getting their GPA-challenged kids into USC.
Apparently skirting the law and doing the time for her crime has not ruined Huffman’s chances for a career comeback.
