Watching The Walking Dead recently, I found myself actually feeling proud of Jon Bernthal for going from playing that dopey lovelorn guy on The Class to a big role as a angry law enforcement agent on one of the year's most talked-about programs. And he's not the only member of the short-lived CBS sitcom who is back in the limelight now. Almost all of the series regulars from the ensemble show have moved on to new regular gigs, with one notable exception (poor Heather Goldenhersh), which is actually a pretty impressive feat if you think about it. Good to know that casting directors didn't tune out about after The Class' bizarre pilot episode, even if most viewers apparently did.
