So, Virtuality (Ron "Battlestar Galactica" Moore's) new show for FOX, is pretty much amassing a wet dream of a cast.
For your consideration:
1. Sienna "Jill Valentine" Guillory.
I was going to watch because the plot sounds cool, and it's Ron Moore. But I'm just doubly excited now, because I love me some Sienna Guillory (I watched Eragon for her people, Eragon! *shudder*).
2. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau was just cast as the lead.
Not only is he insanely handsome, he makes a very likable lead. He's pretty much the only reason I watched New Amsterdam.
3. Jimmi "Scud" Simpson is in it.
SCUD! Not only is he the god of bingo, he's always funny. Wicked ass comic relief component = check
4. Nelson "Shen" Lee! Shen!
*mourns for Blade: The Series once more ... FUCK YOU SPIKE TV! I HATE YOU FOREVER!*
If I can't have Jill or Jessica on my TV weekly, Nelson is a nice substitute :D
5. Joy Bryant.
I can only really remember seeing her in The Skeleton Key with Kate Hudson (oh, wait. That's a lie, she was also in Honey with J Alba, but I like to pretend that movie never existed ... except for breaking out "I teach hip hop down at the centah" every once in a while), but I liked her in it and she sure is pretty.
6. James D'Arcy.
He's been in a shit load of things and has an awesome name, but I am fond of him because he was in Rise with Lucy Liu and Carla Gugino, and when I think of him I remember Lucy and Carla making out covered in blood together. Ah, fuzzy memories.
Wet dream? Y/Y?
Also, not only is the casting awesome so far, but the show just sounds frakking cool. Details about the show
In conclusion, totally looking forward to!

SCUD! Can't go wrong with Scud.
This is like an immutable truth. Simpson is always good.
Reading the details makes me riled up with righteous indignation already! Methinks that's a good sign.
Heh! Yeah. I'm definitely looking forward to this one.
