Whether he cuts his hair, does shows like "American Dreams" or flirts with being called "Joseph," he will always be Joey Lawrence to us, cute tot from "Gimme a Break!" and intellectually-challenged brother of "Blossom."

For at least six episodes this fall though, Lawrence will play Dee Dee's (Essence Atkins) co-worker at her first post-law school job on UPN's Monday night comedy "Half & Half."

The actor's last stint as a series regular was The WB comedy "Run of the House." In March, he co-starred as Jennifer Love Hewitt's gay best friend in Oxygen's original movie "Confessions of a Sociopathic Social Climber."

"Half & Half" premieres Monday, Sept. 19 at 9:30 p.m. on UPN.
