The Big Bang Theory gang is about to encounter a bully.

Ready for the rest of today’s casting roundup? Well…

• Desperate Housewives alum Roger Bart (pictured, left) will guest-star on the freshman season of ABC’s Revenge, playing a “rich, pretentious journalist” who is writing a tell-all book on the Hamptons elite, EW.com reports.

• The Secret Circle is adding two new men to their coven. Per TVGuide.com, Michael Graziadei — who is best known as Daniel Romalotti on The Young and the Restless — will play a charming bad boy whose behavior alarms Phoebe Tonkin’s Faye, while Sammi Rotibi (Lord of War) has landed a mysterious role as the leader of a dangerous group. Both parts have the potential to recur.
