Beth Hymson was the casting director for Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. When the show's star, Kevin Sorbo went missing during an earthquake, she suggested her gardner, Johnny Pinto as a replacement. It was rather obvious to most of the producers that Beth was promoting Pinto for reasons other than his acting skills. Later on, she takes part in a brawl with the other staff members. After Kevin Sorbo returns to fix things, she praises the fact that "there can only be one Hercules".
