Penned by That ’70s Show‘s Jackie and Jeff Filgo, the show follows an uncool cubicle worker — aka “prairie dog” — named Neil (Penn) who is the victim of identity theft. Said corporate drone ultimately discovers the thief (Zano) created a much more fulfilling life with his identity than he ever did — and thus he engages the con man to help him improve his prospects.
Zano is currently recurring on 90210.
