It&#8217;s fabulous to revisit <em>The Librarian<\/em>. This show has a great vibe. <strong>Rebecca Romijn, Christian Kane <\/strong>and<strong> John Larroquette<\/strong> (Maltz in <em>Star Trek III: The Search for Spock<\/em>) are now in it. Noah&#8217;s character (Flynn Carsen) has passed the torch to these other librarians, mostly because Noah is still doing <em>Falling Skies <\/em>for<em> TNT<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Noah is in the two-hour pilot and then he&#8217;ll be recurring over the season, probably in two other episodes close to the end of the season. Bob Newhart is back, too, and his scenes will be filmed in L.A. It&#8217;s a great group, a lot of the same people that I worked with on <em>Leverage <\/em>and<em> The Librarian<\/em> movies. So you know what you&#8217;re getting.<\/p>\n<p>Frakes directed two of the three <em>Librarian<\/em> movies back in 2006 and 2008.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Star Trek: The Next Generation&#8216;s Jonathan Frakes will be directing several episodes of a TNT&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2413],"tags":[2430,7274,3373],"class_list":["post-34166","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cast-crew","tag-frakes","tag-the-librarians","tag-tnt"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","newsphere-slider-full":"","newsphere-featured":"","newsphere-medium":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"T&#39;Bonz","author_link":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/author\/tbonz\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/categories\/cast-crew\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Cast &amp; Crew<\/a>","tag_info":"Cast &amp; Crew","comment_count":"3","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34166","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34166"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34166\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":34172,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34166\/revisions\/34172"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34166"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34166"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34166"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
