Celebration Down continues for Season 3. Caplan’s Casey is not present, and rather a brand-new character– a motion picture manufacturer played by Jennifer Garner– actions in as a brand-new romantic interest for Henry. And while there’s hope that Casey might return eventually, even in a possible Season Finale cameo, there’s excellent factor regarding why Caplan wasn’t able to make it work for most of the revival season.
