  "account": "Nearly a decade after 2 Broke Girls concluded, Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs are finally reuniting on screen. Behrs, who recently wrapped her eight-season run on CBS's The Neighborhood, will guest-star in the Season 3 premiere of her ABC comedy Shifting Gears. This marks a long-awaited reunion for TV's beloved Max Black and Caroline Channing. The surprise guest role was first teased by Dennings, who vowed to announce the special collaboration on her Shifting Gears Instagram account. The caption read, \"Don't forget to tip your servers...\", hinting that Behrs would appear as Dr. Johnson, an emergency room doctor treating Riley (Dennings). TVLine can now confirm Behrs's guest appearance as a beautiful ER doctor. Co-showrunner Michelle Nader expressed her desire to reunite Behrs and Dennings on screen, despite scheduling challenges with both shows airing on Tuesdays. The reunion was ultimately made possible by Behrs's break from The Neighborhood and the show's shooting schedule at a different studio. TVLine will update viewers once an airdate for Behrs's episode is announced by ABC.",
