BETTER CAUL SAUL (AMC) - Bob Odenkirk took to social media with the news he is recovering from a small heart attack: "Hi. It's Bob. Thank you. To my family and friends who have surrounded me this week. And for the outpouring of love from everyone who expressed concern and care for me. It's overwhelming. But I feel the love and it means so much. I had a small heart attack. But I'm going to be ok thanks to Rosa Estrada and the doctors who knew how to fix the blockage without surgery. Also, AMC and SONYs support and help throughout this has been next-level. I'm going to take a beat to recover but I'll be back soon." (@mrbobodenkirk)

DuVall will play Malvina "Tommy" Thompson: "Eleanor Roosevelt's trusted assistant, secretary, traveling companion, gatekeeper and dear friend. Irreverent, funny, and a shrewd judge of character, Tommy was utterly devoted to Eleanor and together they trailblazed women's advocacy, taking no prisoners as they went." And Plummer is young Franklin Delano Roosevelt: "Born into a famously patrician American family, Franklin quickly shed all that in the New York Senate for a life of service to his country. He married Eleanor in 1905, and though he was stricken by polio in 1921, his youthful resilience and vitality predicted great political success." (Deadline.com)

The workplace comedy centers around a medium-sized interpreting agency in Los Angeles managed by DJ (Matlin), who's both overextended and overconfident." Ben Shelton is penning the project, which has a penalty attached, for Universal Television. Matlin, Shelton, Jack Jason and Kapital Entertainment's Aaron Kaplan are the executive producers.
