casting "Sh*t my Dad says"

excerpt:
  
[T]he key will be casting.
 
Our list of possible candidates for the father includes Jeffrey Tambor, Kurtwood Smith, Sam Elliot, and Abe Vigoda — but our money's on Ron White. He might be young, but his attitude is just right: acerbic, annoyed, half drunk, always about to take a crap, and disgusted with the new generation. Especially his son.
 

For the mother, we'd go with Kathleen Turner, who has been amazing this season on Californication in her recurring role as Sue Collini. Not that we have any details that suggest Mrs. Halpern is a sex-starved ball buster — we just want more Kathleen Turner.
 

Neil Patrick Harris would be great for the son if they could steal him away from another CBS comedy, How I Met Your Mother.  Ditto Colin Hanks from Bones.  But, we're gonna settle with Andy Samberg.  Perfect combination of youth and comedic timing — and we've already seen him play a son, remember?
