The series also stars Rupert Grint, Nick Frost and Don Johnson. 
 
 Lindsay Lohan has joined Sky comedy Sick Note, starring Rupert Grint, Nick Frost and Don Johnson, for its newly announced second season. 
 
 Sick Note follows the story of Daniel Glass (Grint), a compulsive liar stuck in a failing relationship and dead-end insurance job, under the thumb of his boss (Johnson). Lohan will join the show, which airs on Sky 1 in the U.K., for season two as the daughter of Johnson's character. 
 
 The first season will air this fall, while the second season is currently shooting in the U.K. 
 
 In the first season, Grint's character is wrongly diagnosed with a terminal illness by his incompetent doctor (Frost) who convinces him to hide the truth of his misdiagnosis from colleagues, friends and family in a lie that spirals out of control. 
 
 The show is part of Sky 1's growing stable of edgier, grown-up comedies commissioned for the channel’s 10 p.m. slot. Other shows in the fall lineup for that slot include Bliss, from David Cross, starring Stephen Mangan and Heather Graham; and action comedy Bounty Hunters, from Jack Whitehall and Freddy Syborn. 
 
 Produced by British production firm King Bert, founded by producer Jo Sargent and writers and actors David Walliams and Miranda Hart, Sick Note is created and written by Nat Saunders and James Serafinowicz. Matt Lipsey (Little Britain) is directing. 
 
 Said executive producer Sargent: "We are thrilled to be making a second [season] of this nail-biting comedy and very excited to be welcoming the extraordinary talents of Lindsay Lohan to our all-star cast." ||||| EXCLUSIVE: Oprah pulls plug on second season for Lindsay Lohan's reality show - but no one has told her yet! 
 
 
 
 Lindsay Lohan's OWN network reality TV show will not be renewed, but no one's told her yet! 
 
 The OWN network honcho Oprah Winfrey, 60, has called time on the show after poor ratings. 
 
 So far only her head TV network executives know, while Lindsay has been kept guessing if she will return. The part reality show/ documentary turned into a 'meltdown' rather than a comeback series.

 Out on her a**: Lindsay Lohan had a chance at a second series of her OWN reality/documentary show, but ratings were poor and she has been accused of failing to promote it properly 
 
 Gone: A source told MailOnline that Oprah grew tired of hearing about Lindsay and her private life in other media outlets 
 
 Insiders say Oprah is livid with Lindsay, 27, for her behavior on the shows and for leaks of trashy stories about the show and her rumored sex list. 
 
 Oprah also feels that Lindsay could've done more to publicize the show in the right way. 
 
 Ratings for the prime time episodes were low. The premiere attracted less than 700,000 viewers - a third less than they hoped for. 
 
 Bosses at the network originally commissioned the show for a one off run, but had given the star options for further follow ups if it was a success. 
 
 'Oprah will tell Lindsay later this month that her show won't be reappearing for in the future,' an insider divulged. ' First and foremost, the ratings were an absolute disaster. It didn't pull in the viewers that Oprah had hoped for. 
 
 Off the wagon: Reports from Coachella at the weekend claimed she has failed to stay sober. Oprah is said to be very displeased at her off-screen 'trashy' antics 
 
 'Also, Oprah grew tired of hearing about Lindsay and her private life in other media outlets. It became a little worrying when stories about her private life appeared in magazines, while Lindsay never talked about anything like that on the show. 
 
 'Leaked stories from those around her also generated what many felt was trashy publicity, which didn't really improve her image or send out a message that her star was on the rise. 
 
 
 
 ' A story about Lindsay's supposed sex list story left many with a bad feelings too. Lindsay did very little publicity for the show either. Oprah kind of expected that, but it would've been nice if Lindsay went some chat shows to talk about the reality show. 
 
 
 
 'Oprah has cut her losses and said there will be no second season for Lindsay.' 
 
 The source continued: 'OWN saw the Lindsay show as a possible long term hit series. And Oprah was hoping that it would chart her time from coming out of rehab to making it back into the A list movie ranks. 
 
 
 
 'In reality the series has simply showed that Lindsay is a long way from returning to Hollywood. And her attitude towards the advice and help Oprah gave her seemed to be ignored in the main. 
 
 
 
 'O n paper this show had huge potential, but in practice it has been a poor show.' 
 
 This weekend Lindsay Lohan went out partying at the Coachella Music festival. 
 
 'Far from Hollywood': OWN had hoped that they could follow the transformation of Lindsay back to stardom. But these days she has to accept cameos, like above in CBS' 2 Broke Girls 
 
 Oprah didn't send out any of her camera crews to follow Lindsay's antics. Had they gone, they may have scored some interesting footage. 
 
 
 
 Reports say that 'sober' Lindsay started drinking again during her partying after the music shows. 
 
 
 
 The one time Disney Starlet now faces an uncertain future. 
 
 
 
 She has not attracted a leading role in a major successful movie for almost a decade. 
 
 
 
 Instead, she has been forced to take less high profile jobs. Most recently, she has taken on a cameo as a difficult bride in the hit CBS series, 2 Broke Girls. 
 
 
 
 And critics have been harsh on comeback performances in Liz And Dick and The Canyons.
– Lindsay Lohan is making a comeback on the small screen after a three-year hiatus from acting. The NY Daily News reports that the starlet posted a photo from the set of the British television comedy Sick Note announcing her new gig while posing in a blazer with a sleek bob haircut alongside costars Rupert Grint of Harry Potter fame and Nick Frost. Season one has yet to air (it's slated for this fall), but according to the Hollywood Reporter, the series follows Grint after he is misdiagnosed with a terminal illness; Lohan will come in during the second season. She is taking on the role of the daughter of Grint’s boss, who is played by actor Don Johnson. (Lohan made headlines last year while on a covert humanitarian trip.)
