NEW YORK � November 12, 2008 � USA Network announced today the casting of Joshua Malina ("The West Wing," "Numb3ers") as a new key character in the hit original series and #1 new show of the summer, IN PLAIN SIGHT. Malina joins newly announced recurring cast member Holly Maples ("The Office," "Curb Your Enthusiasm"). The show is currently in production on its second season with all 16 episodes being shot entirely on location in and around Albuquerque, New Mexico. The series is created and written by David Maples ("Home Improvement," "Huff"), who serves as executive producer alongside Paul Stupin ("Dawson's Creek," "Beautiful People").
