IN THE WAKE OF JOAN'S BREAKUP WITH ADAM, GOD TELLS HER TO DO SOME HOUSE CLEANING WHICH PUTS HER IN THE MIDDLE OF A SCHOOL SCANDAL, ON "JOAN OF ARCADIA," FRIDAY, APRIL 8

Kevin Rahm ("Judging Amy") Returns

"Spring Cleaning" -- In the wake of Joan's difficult breakup with Adam, God tells her to do some therapeutic cleaning, which ends up putting her in the middle of a scandal involving her guidance counselor, on JOAN OF ARCADIA, Friday, April 8 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Bethany Rooney directed the episode written by Lyla Oliver.

Kevin Rahm ("Judging Amy") returns as Joan's guidance counselor, Dana Tuchman.

As part of Joan's clean sweep, she returns everything Adam ever gave her, which only adds to the awkwardness between them. Meanwhile, when Joan returns some items to Mr. Tuchman that he loaned her, a jealous student with feelings for Tuchman vindictively tells the school authorities that Tuchman initiated intimate relationships with both her and Joan.
