‘Call Me Kat’ First Look: Jack McBrayer Joins the Gang for Camping Trip (PHOTOS)
Exclusive
The Call Me Kat cat cafe has added a new team member to its staff as 30 Rock‘s Jack McBrayer guest stars as baker recruit Gideon and we have your exclusive first look at the character.
In the episode “Call Me Fatty Patty,” airing Thursday, February 2, viewers are getting a better look at Gideon’s role among the rest of the gang as he tags along for a road trip to the Smoky Mountains. The outing celebrates Max’s (Cheyenne Jackson) birthday in which Kat (Mayim Bialik), Randi (Kyla Pratt), and Carter (Julian Gant) gift him an RV rental so they can all travel together.

As seen in the photos, above, and below, Gideon is coming prepared with his own luggage, and considering his Amish background, he may be useful in helping the others navigate the wilderness. But apart from his nifty luggage, Gideon has the best accessory around — a winning smile — which he wears on his face through most of these photos.

Kat appears to be equally as eager to have her new employee along for the celebration which will have its ups and downs as Randi and Carter bicker over where they should live together. No matter the challenges that face them though, the episode will include a cozy fireside gathering as teased in the image, below.

Am I the only one who thinks that the show has gotten totally stupid with the addition of Gideon? I miss Leslie! If it continues as it is, I won't be watching much longer.

Vicki Lawrence would've been a better choice. She is the best! She was hysterical as Phil's Mom.

Hahaha! Love watching the gentle and brilliant comedic timing of Jack McBrayer in this new character, Gideon. I like that they didn’t try to replace Phil with something just like him because that wouldn’t feel right to us fans. Like Leslie Jordan, Phil was one of a kind. The Gideon character is not something anybody else is doing, which is what makes me lean in to see what this guy is about. I anticipate the writers will have a lot of humorous & creative plot opportunities for the previously very isolated Gideon to try new things with Kat and his other new friends. An Amish guy that didn’t fit in with such a strict and rigid community is a creative and unique angle for 2023 that really works- plus, I always love the characters that have a childlike innocence in a sitcom. Wouldn’t it be cool if Gideon became one of the trendiest pop culture Halloween costumes by 2024! Dare to dream!!

It's so funny that Gideon thinks that after his 1st sip of wine, his natural next step is cocaine! He must not know what it is, I guess. Glad Kat and Randi were there to help him

Sounds like a fun episode. I really hope Fox renews it for season 4, it’s been rough without Phil, the lovable and charming Leslie Jordan! Wish they could make it more like the UK’s “Miranda”, from which this show is from, but it’s still such a great cast and show =) Looking forward to more seasons to come!!
