<p class="has-medium-font-size">Jamie Lynn&#8217;s character Noreen is pregnant, and is in South Carolina to get a new start after making some bad choices. Brooke&#8217;s character of Dana Sue was a bit of a &#8220;wild child&#8221; but has since reinvented herself as the hardworking owner of Sullivan&#8217;s Restaurant. JoAnna&#8217;s character Maddie is a sweet, poetry-loving woman who finds herself at a bit of a crossroads. </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Now, almost everyone knows of Jamie Lynn&#8217;s Nick days on the hit series <em>Zoey 101</em>, but where have you seen the other cast members before? </p>



<p class="has-medium-font-size">Fans may recognize Brooke Elliott from her lead in the Lifetime series <em>Drop Dead Diva</em>; while Heather Headley may look familiar to fans of <em>Chicago Med</em> as Gwen Garrett. Chris Klein starred in the <em>American Pie</em> movie franchise, as well as the CW series <em>The Flash</em>. Justin Bruening held roles on two soap operas (<em>All My Children</em> and <em>One Life to Live</em>), and more recently a guest spot on <em>Grey&#8217;s Anatomy</em>. </p>
