Because of her Lost commitment, Watros is only "guest starring" on My Ex-Life

Just as we were getting to know Oceanic Flight 815 survivor Libby, her days
on the island may be numbered. While we can't report anything official, The
Hollywood Reporter reports that Cynthia Watros, who plays Libby on the hit
ABC series, has been cast in the CBS comedy pilot My Ex-Life opposite
Tom Cavanagh, a move that raises suspicion about the future of her Lost character.
Officially Watros is only taking a "guest starring" credit on the
new CBS pilot because of her Lost commitment, but that turn does not bode well for the future of Libby, who
we just found out, along with Hurley, had a stay in a mental institution.
On My Ex-Life, produced by 20th Century Fox TV, Watros and Cavanagh
will play best friends who have the common bond of being a divorced couple sharing
custody. Kelsey Grammer is attached to direct the pilot. Watros replaces Gillian
Vigman, who was originally cast in the role.
Before her role on Lost, Watros was best known for starring on both
Titus and The Drew Carey Show. She is also a Daytime Emmy winner
for her work on The Guiding Light. Watros is repped by Innovative.
