Fran Drescher, Tichina Arnold, John Michael Higgins, D.W. Moffett, Rita Moreno, Valente Rodriguez, and Robert Walden have been cast in the TV Land comedy pilot Happily Divorced.

Based on Drescher’s real-life former marriage and subsequent divorce, the pilot focuses on a woman who re-enters the dating scene after learning her husband is gay.

Moreno and Walden will play Drescher’s parents, and Arnold will play her best friend.
