The cast ofParty Downis putting on their pink bow ties and neatly pressed white button-up shirts to reveal the “best” among them in a superlative-based promo spot. Kicking it off is the crooning angelic voice ofKen Marinoas he gives viewers a little diddy to welcome them to the clip. The categories contain everything from who to turn to for the best advice to who rocks the iconic uniforms the best. There are also higher stakes categories including the funniest member of the cast (for which Marino received an overwhelming number of votes) and the star that’s most like their character, with many agreeing thatAdam Scottis on the same wavelength as the ever-sarcastic and apathetic Henry Pollard.
Other notable mentions went out to the cast’s favorite guest stars from over the years which includedSteve Guttenberg,Steven Weber, andnew-to-the-series starsJennifer GarnerandJames Marsden. And, although the question was asked about who breaks character the most while filming, no one was willing to give up their castmates, withJane Lyncheven stating that she was “with a bunch of professionals,” adding that there isn’t an actor among them who breaks.
Party Downwillreturnto its home network of STARZ in late February and pick up with the ragtag team 10 years after the original serieswrapped. The show will continue to follow the lives of a team of caterers who are paying their bills with their food service industry jobs while attempting to make it to the big time on the side.
