Adam Hagenbuch, best known for playing Daphne’s boyfriend Mingo — yes, Mingo — on Freeform’s Switched at Birth, will appear in the Netflix comedy as Jimmy, the never-before-mentioned brother of Kimmy, E! Online reports.
(Side note: TVLine previously reported that a character named Jimmy, described as being a “touch on the weird side,” was being introduced as a love interest for Stephanie in Season 2. Could DJ’s little sister really have the hots for… a Gibbler?!)
