In NBC’s new comedy series “Go On,” Suzy Nakamura stars as Yolanda, a sycophant to support group leader, Lauren (Laura Benanti). With her tightly-wound demeanor, Yolanda is a stellar doctor and an easy target within the group. Here’s more about “Go On”:

When the going gets tough, it’s time to get laughing. Sports radio talk show host Ryan King (Matthew Perry) has just been through hell, so his plan? Get back to work and get on with his life. Unfortunately, his boss has another idea: join a support group before getting back on the air.

Now, in the last place he ever thought he’d be, surrounded by an oddball cast of characters each with their own issues, the charming but cocky Ryan is in more trouble than ever. He’s never been accused of being a team player.

So, it’s a big surprise when Ryan’s lack of interest in everyone’s sob stories – and total dismissal in his own, proves to be just what this group needs to deal with their stuff. Could it be this eccentric bunch really will help him get on with his life? Now, that’s funny.

“Go On” premieres today September 11, 2012 at 9/8c PM on NBC.
