We were lucky enough to catch up with Heyworth native Britt Lower, whose new TV show MAN SEEKING WOMAN just started last Wednesay on FXX. The critics love it, and Britt is pretty excited about the new turn up in her career.  Britt plays “Liz,” the intimidating older sister of “Josh Greenberg” (Jay Baruchel, How to Train Your Dragon) on his unrelenting quest for love. Man Seeking Woman is based on Simon Rich’s book of short stories, The Last Girlfriend on Earth.

Here is a clip from the show:
