Stacey’s appearance is possibly the last thing Will needs right now, as she reminds him of the man he once was – the Will that he’s been trying to distance himself from ever since he got serious with Sam and found himself unexpectedly connecting with Marcus. Will wants to get beyond the shallow womanizer he was once and become a newer version of himself, someone he can be proud of, and he might not be able to do that if he has a walking, talking remnant of his lesser days interacting with people who didn’t know him when. Can Will find a way to dispatch Stacey before she does any damage to the life he’s trying to build? Or will her presence get under his skin enough to where he sabotages the things that had been working for him?

In addition to her time on the Showtime drama, Garcia has appeared on the likes of George Lopez, Vegas, and Off the Map. She’s joins Episodes alum Chris Diamantopoulos in appearing on the romantic comedy, which stars Oscar nominee Minnie Driver (Good Will Hunting), David Walton (Bent), and Benjamin Stockham (Quarantine).

The second season of About a Boy is set to premiere Tuesday, October 14th at 9:30 on NBC.

Will you be watching About a Boy this season? Do you think Stacey actually inspired Will’s song or is she just fishing for a little slice of fame? How will Stacey’s reappearance in Will’s life impact not only his creative process, but his relationships with Sam, Marcus, and Fiona?

The first season of About a Boy shied away from the idea of playing into the tension between Will and Fiona, though the former tended to be more protective over the latter than a friend or neighbor would. Will might still be in love with Sam, but he could be forced to confront his feelings for the eccentric single mother when Mr. Chris comes into the picture in a similar situation to what he went through during TJ’s flirtation with Fiona. He believes that he and Fiona are too opposite to work and that he wants to be with someone more in line with whom he thinks he’s supposed to be with, yet there has to be a part of him that looks at Fiona as being a possible match. If there wasn’t, he wouldn’t get jealous over her dating other men and, in his mind, squandering the insta-family he gained when she and Marcus moved into the neighborhood.

In addition to his role on the Showtime comedy, Diamantopoulos has appeared on the likes of 24, The Office, and Hannibal. Guest stars during the first season of About a Boy included Dax Shepard (Parenthood), Will Sasso (Justified), and Leslie Bibb (GCB).

Will you be watching About a Boy this season? Is Mr. Chris’ presence going to cause Will to reevaluate his feelings for Fiona? Should the show pursue a Will/Fiona romance or do you like them better as begrudging friends?
