24 Casting News: T.J. Ramini as Tarin Karoush

Compared with the news that Katee Sackhoff is joining the cast of 24, the following tidbit isn't very exciting.

But it's still worth noting that T.J. Ramini will play a key role on season eight of the Fox hit. The actor is best known for having played Yaniv on Desperate Housewives, the Israeli boot camp instructor that got Gabby into shape this spring.

Ramini will play Tarin Karoush on 24, an associate of the Middle Eastern leader portrayed by new series regular Anil Kapoor.
