Another Happy Endings alum coming to television in the fall? Yes and yes and yes and yes!

Eliza Coupe, aka WASP-y wife Jane from the tragically canceled ABC series, has joined Will Arnett's new CBS sitcom The Millers, E! News has confirmed.

Coupe will play the recurring role of Nate's (Arnett) ex-wife and will first appear in the Oct. 24 episode. Glee's Jayma Mays has also joined the cast of The Millers as Nate's sister Debbie and Veep's Nelson Franklin has signed on to play Debbie's husband.

Because the TV gods are trying desperately to make up for losing Happy Endings, other castmembers from the show are popping up on other comedies this year. Damon Wayans Jr. is making his much-anticipated return to New Girl as Coach, while Adam Pally will play a doctor on season two of The Mindy Project. Casey Wilson, meanwhile, has landed a network deal at ABC. Waiting on you Elisha Cuthbert and Zach Knighton!

EW was the first to report the news of Coupe's casting. The Millers premieres on Thursday, Oct. 3 on CBS.

Twirl party to celebrate Coupe's casting? GO!
