by

As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for spotting trends and a deep appreciation for quality entertainment, I must say that the upcoming reunion of Kat Dennings and Brenda Song in Tim Allen’s ABC comedy series Shifting Gears is an exciting development! Having closely followed both their careers, it seems that 2025 will indeed be a banner year for these talented actresses.

As a lifestyle expert, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news: A reunion of the iconic duo from “Dollface” is on the horizon! The talented Kat Dennings and Brenda Song are set to join forces once again, this time in Tim Allen’s upcoming ABC comedy series titled “Shifting Gears,” expected to hit our screens in January 2025. Interestingly, Brenda Song, who has previously collaborated with Kat Dennings in the Hulu series where she played Madison Maxwell, Jules’ best friend, has secured a guest role in this new series. So, get ready for another dose of their chemistry!

Currently, Song appears in Gia Coppola’s film “The Last Showgirl,” alongside stars such as Pamela Anderson, Jamie Lee Curtis, Kiernan Shipka, and Dave Bautista. The movie will initially be released on a limited basis on December 13th of this year, followed by a broader release on January 10th, 2025.

In the new ABC comedy show, Song will be joining forces once more with Michelle Nader, the head writer and executive producer, whom he worked with on Dollface during its two-season run. The character portrayed by Allen in this series is Matt, a determined widower who runs an old-car repair shop.

In this scenario, Denning plays the character named Riley. Caitlyn, portrayed by Song, is a former classmate of Riley’s who now serves as an assistant principal at another school. The principal cast also features Seann William Scott as Gabriel, Maxwell Simkins as Carter, Barrett Margolis as Georgia, and Daryl Mitchell as Stitch.

Matt, who’s quite determined, is the proprietor of an old-car repair shop. However, when his estranged daughter and young grandkids move in with him, it’s not just the classic cars that need fixing – it’s his relationships as well.

As an absolutely thrilled fan, I can hardly contain my excitement! ABC is going to premiere their new show, “Shifting Gears,” at 8 PM on Wednesday, January 8. But wait, there’s more! The following day, you’ll be able to stream it on Hulu. This fantastic production is brought to us by 20th Television under Disney Television Studios, and I can hardly wait to see the brilliant work of Allen, Nader, Marty Adelstein, Becky Clements, Richard Baker, Rick Messina, and John Pasquin, who are all part of the executive producer team. In fact, John Pasquin has even directed the pilot episode! And if that isn’t enough, the lovely actress from Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist is also a producer of this hilarious series. Mark your calendars, folks, because we’re in for a treat!

As fans eagerly anticipate the reunion of Kat Dennings and Brenda Song on Dollface, it’s worth noting that Brenda Song will keep a busy schedule throughout the year. She is also set to star alongside Kate Hudson in a Netflix basketball comedy produced by Mindy Kaling, which is scheduled for release in 2025.
