The show's writers tweeted the news late Tuesday.

Silverman will play the smart, funny owner of a sexually explicit website devoted to connecting married people who are looking to have affairs. She's sued by a woman who is convinced that her husband was murdered as a result of using the website and must turn to Alicia (Julianna Margulies) and the firm for help.

Fox, America Ferrara, Rita Wilson, Anika Noni Rose, Scott Porter, Michael Ealy, Elizabeth Reaser, Titus Welliver, Dylan Baker, Mamie Gummer, Denis O'Hare, Carrie Preston, Kate Burton, Gary Cole and Ana Gasteyer.

In addition, Martha Plimpton recently confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that she will be appearing in a third episode of the CBS drama.
