Good news for Buffy fans, not so good news for Dawson's Creek lovers.
Let's start with the bad news. Boy next door Joshua Jackson was supposed to appear on this season's Grey's Anatomy. Yet due to the writers' strike, Pacey Witter's episode arc was never even written. So if the strike continues for some time, we might not get to see the boy romance anyone other than Joey Potter.
Rumor has it Josh was supposed to hook up with Cristina on Grey's, which would make for some interesting and extremely awkward scenes. From Dr. Preston Burke to a Mighty Ducks star? Now that's a change. I guess Dr. Yang doesn't have a certain "type" of guy she goes after. This, however, may be a good thing, as we all know that Cristina's last man got kicked off the show for good…
As for the good news, werewolf Seth Green's two-episode gig on the doctor drama has been shot and will air regardless of the writers' strike!
Actress Regina King (227, Jerry Maguire, 24) will be appearing on In the Loop with iVillage this Thursday and will be taking questions from the iVillage audience. Got a question for Regina? Now is your chance. From "How often do people come up to you and say: 'Show me the money?'" to "What's Kiefer Sutherland really like?" -- feel free to ask away.

Taking a page from the Isaiah Washington book How to Burn All Your Bridges, Rescue Me's just-axed co-star, Jack Magee, is blowing some major hot air, directed at the show's main man and executive producer, Denis Leary.
Jack, who plays was Chief Jerry Reilly on the firefighter drama, was (SPOILER ALERT) killed off on this week's episode and is, ahem, steaming mad. The actor says, not only should he have been kept on the show, but that Denis was a wimp for not telling him the fate of his character.
"That would take a real man to do that. Denis doesn't know how to do that," Jack whined to televisionwithoutpity.com. "His persona would make you think he's straight-up, he's honest and he's forthright. But I never got an indication of that. The truth is, if he knocked on my door right now, I'd be able to look him right in the eye. I don't know if he could do that. He's a bully. Bullies most of the time don't have the guts to do things themselves."
Waaaah, waaaah, waaaah. I hear Isaiah's looking for a friend in the biz, Jack. Give him a ring.

Salma Hayek: How could you do this to us?
Sorry. We've regained our composure. It's just that we read this story about Victoria Beckham appearing on next season's Ugly Betty and it's left us feeling, well, a little ugly inside. Here's the scoop from our friends across the pond at at Daily Blabber UK:
Our very own Miss Posh is set to mark her arrival to LA with a cameo in box office hit TV series Ugly Betty.Actor Eric Mabius, who plays fashion magazine Mode's editor-in-chief Daniel Meade, leaked the news that producers are currently making moves to secure LA's newest Brit resident.
And with her ever-changing style, inconceivably stick thin figure and a question mark over the authenticity of certain 'assets', we think Mrs. Beckham will fit right in.
Having put her unsuccessful solo singing career to bed, and a messy finish to her fashion line, could this be her calling?
We'll go ahead and answer that one... and we're going with NO!
If this season could be summed up in one word, I'd call it unhinged. Despite the various scenarios Tony has found himself in through the years, the mafia boss always had control. This season, he lost it with his "family" connections called into question. Suddenly he worried people were being disloyal, which made him lose is footing. He never would have killed Christopher, who was like a son to him. But there he was stealing Christopher's last breaths. Last week, his closest goombahs, bro-in-law Bobby and right-hand man Silvio, were whacked. Well, Silvio is still alive, but he's a vegetable. I consider that whacked.
The last we saw of Tony, he was laying on a bed in a safehouse, clutching an uzi and trying not to fall asleep. It seemed his days (hours, ninutes) were numbered. Or will Carmela get it? Meadow and the troubled AJ? His widowed sister?
I can't wait to see it.
Tune in on Sunday night at 9pm on HBO.
Enough with that friggin' beat-boxin!
America has voted and the winner of this year's American Idol competition is... Jordin Sparks.
The 17-year-old from Glendale, Arizona dazzled with her impressive ability to knock out some really difficult songs. Poor Blake didn't stand a chance.
Musical guests included Gwen Stefani, Green Day, Bette Midler and Tony Bennett. Former Idol-ers Kelly Clarkson, Ruben Studdard, Carrie Underwood and Taylor Hicks also stopped in and took the stage. There was some type of Beatles tribute which was lame. Sorry, but Green Day's "Working Class Hero" can't hold a candle to John Lennon's amazing original version.
Are you happy with the outcome? Were you rooting for Blake? Talk back right here and let your opinion be heard.
Blake Lewis' first song ("You Give Love a Bad Name") was the best of the night, but Jordin Sparks did better overall. I believe there was an unfair disadvantage though.
For instance, the song they each had to sing that was chosen in the songwriter competition, "This Is My Now." I mean, come on! What was Blake supposed to do with that song?
And to top that off.. that was the winning song? That's what they whittled it down to? I wonder how many people entered? Let's hope the "Great American Band Contest" FOX is doing is more captivating. I digress...
At the end of the competition, Simon revealed how he was right, (of course) AND he even admitted he was wrong. This is what he said of each...
To Blake: I always said there was talent in Seattle, and I was right.
To Jordin: I did not think you were good enough to be in the finals.. but he "publicly" admitted he was wrong.
We hope the production of the Simple Life is over for the season because the star of the show, Miss Paris Hilton, suddenly has her calendar booked this summer. The heiress is going to jail!
According to TMZ.com, Paris was just sentenced to 45 days in jail. The charges stem from her violating her probation in a reckless driving case.
We predict that her looooong list of enemies are all having a big laugh over this one.
Warner Bros. Television and the CW announced Thursday that female fave the Gilmore Girls is ending its run after seven seasons. The final episode of the mother-daughter dramedy will air May 15 -- Mother's Day.
According to TVGuide.com, Lauren Graham, who plays Lorelai Gilmore, taped a segment for next Tuesday's Ellen DeGeneres Show in which she said she's not surprised by the cancellation.
"It was a conversation that was going on for a long time," she said. "I think it's really a good thing.... It's the best thing for the show, and I feel really good about it."
She may feel good about it, but we'll be sad. Lorelai and Rory are like old friends and we're sad to see them fade into TV history.
Hair stylists tend to gossip and lure out secrets from their clients, so here's scoop on the premiere episode of Shear Genius.
The 12 contestants range from quiet, young blondie to loud and proud divo. Their first challenge was to create their signature hair style on a mannequin in an hour. Snooze.The finished products were mostly asymmetrical. Judges Sally Hershberger and the still-gorgeous Jaclyn Smith gave their opinions on each. What we learned through the boring challenge: Dr. Boogie is hysterical, claims to be straight and cuts hair with an electric clipper-- no scissors
necessary. Evangelin, the "crazy Italian wife," gets way too emotional while talking about being a stylist, and Lacey can look at a tree and turn it into a haircut. Uh... I'll pass.
The players felt the heat when they learned there would not only be a winner and loser of the challenge, but that everyone in between would be ranked. Women rounded out the bottom three; the quiet, but stylish Tyson won with
his modern cut.
Salon Director Rene Fris was introduced and took the lucky dozen to Michael's Art Supply store to stock up for their first elimination challenge: create a hair art masterpiece in two hours. All kinds of things were purchased including feathers, birds of paradise and a treasure box (gasp!). The outrageous styles clearly took creativity, but look painful to actually have attached to your head. Frederick Fekkai guest judged, which totally impressed the contestants. Surpisingly, the pop-open treasure box head, made by the adorable Theodore (he's 22), won the prize. Unfortunately, the cocky "I am success" Paul-Jean, who was sure to be a drama queen, was
eliminated. So chip-on-her-shoulder Tabatha might have to take over to provide entertainment with attitude.
In the midst of all of this, the gang moved into their Real World-inspired house (bunk beds and pool table included) and quickly took advantage of the provided alcohol. Disappointingly, nobody got too tipsy, and there doesn't seem to be a hot tub nearby. Shoot.
It's early in the game, but Daisy and Tyson seem to be ahead in the race.
Until the next trim....
Talk about a genius idea — Bravo’s new reality show revolving around top-notch ‘dos is bringing the Breck Girl back! That’s right, wiggle into your old Jaclyn Smith jeans because Charlie’s sexy brunette Angel is the hostess of Shear Genius.
Watch as 12 stylists compete through hair-raising challenges involving A-list celebrities and not-so-famous (read: in need of a makeover) clients in order to save themselves from being “cut” from the group. He or she who manages to “blow away” the judges will be crowned Shear Genius. Think Project Runway in a gossipy hair salon.
The judges are guaranteed to be more outspoken than your mother when you got that horrible perm. Move over Jonathan Antin, Shear Genius is handing the scissor torch to Wilhelmina model/author/hairstylist Rene Fris, who is part of the European “Fab Five.” Joining him in the judge’s chambers is bi-coastal celeb stylist Sally Herschberger, who has a big, long list of credentials to make her more than qualified to be one of three judges. All that matters is one uber important detail — she has touched Brad Pitt’s hair. And hopefully Allure Fashion Director Michael Carl will be just as honest and brutal as the Michael judge on Runway (Kors, that is).
Let your hair down on Wednesday nights and give Shear Genius a snip of your time. Each week -- right here -- I'll be recapping the show, which premieres April 11 at 10/9c. So come back and tell me what you think.

The crooner your grandma and grandpa love will not be on Idol this evening.
Tony Bennett, who mentored the Idol finalists and was supposed to appear on tonight's show, is too sick to appear on the Fox reality show. His spokesperson says that he's suffering from a cold.
Producers are in a last minute scramble to find a replacement. One of the names being mentioned is Michael Buble, who really is a young Tony.
Get well soon ToneDawg!
Natasha, 21, is on the phone with her 40-year-old husband. The other girls eavesdrop on her conversation and speculate that the Russian moved to America and got married at 18 because she was a mail order bride. Natasha tells her hubby she doesn’t get along with anyone in the house.
The girls gather with the head of Elite and a model chick named Claudia Mason, who has appeared on mag covers and walked in all the famous fashion shows. The girls stare at Claudia like she’s a goddess. The task is to find out how to dress. The girls are all instructed to dress themselves... then Elite lady and Claudia rip them apart.
Back at the apartment, Renee talks smack about the plus-sized models, Diane and Whitney. Renee says a larger woman will never be on the cover of Vogue. (Clearly this was before Jennifer Hudson made the cover!) The plus girls are upset.
Karen and Tom argue over Tom going behind the President's back to authorize detention centers and civilian arrests. That slime Tom won't back down and asks Reed (nice to see you again, Chad Lowe!) to help him get rid of Karen. Tom orders Karen to give her resignation and taunts her with information about Bill releasing Fayed from custody 14 months earlier. She really needs to knock him out. He's a little weasel that needs to be stopped. He just screams traitor. Tom boasts that he has a list of people who would be willing to testify against Bill if she doesn't do as he asks. She doesn't smack him, but does call him an SOB. He snaps back that he never claimed he wasn't one. You've got to give him props for knowing his own character flaws. Karen goes to President Palmer and gives him her resignation. Cannot believe she bowed down to Tom. Palmer won't accept her resignation and knows this has something to do with her fighting with Tom. Karen puts up more of a fight about quitting than she did with Tom and Palmer relents. He agrees to transfer her to LA. She should stay because she's much safer in the President's bunker with all those nukes on the loose. Reed gets confirmation that she quit and calls Tom.
Not much info here, but I thought I'd pass it along...
THE INTERNS OF SEATTLE GRACE ARE CHALLENGED LIKE NEVER BEFORE, ON ABC'S GREY'S ANATOMY
Elizabeth Reaser Guest Stars as a Patient Over Multiple Episodes
"Walk on Water" - Beginning February 8, Grey's Anatomy enters a three-episode story arc that will challenge the interns of Seattle Grace -- and Grey's fans as well -- like never before. "Walk on Water" airs THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 8 (9:00-10:001 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network. Elizabeth Reaser (Independent Spirit Award nominee for "Sweet Land") guest stars as a patient over multiple episodes.
Heroes, Heroes, Heroes. It's all about Heroes.
That cheerleader chick -- Hayden Panettiere -- is the new "It" girl and she dates Laguna Beach hottie Stephen. Ali Larter, who plays Niki, is now a little fashionista, landing on all the best dressed lists after the Golden Globes. And we have a little crush on Masi Oka... who is just charming as can be -- and a whiz!
Not sure if you know, but iVillage now has a TV show called iVillage Live. It airs daily at 12, but you don't have to be at home on the couch to watch it. (Not too many of us are at noon, right? We're slaving away at the 9-to-5er.) You can actually watch it live online -- like from your desk at work (!) -- or watch it on demand on your computer after the fact.
The reason we're going on and on about this is because today -- right now actually -- some Heroes cast members are on the show. So if you want to get your Heroes fix, just click here to watch the interview at your convenience.
Okay? Good.
Now for your viewing pleasure... Some photos of Zachary Quinto (Sylar) are after the jump.
Two proposals… One possible retirement… Four possible replacements…One sex machine… An $8.7 donation. There were a lot of things to keep track of in last night's Grey's Anatomy. Find out what went down -- and then let's talk about it.
I've learned to expect the unexpected in Memphis.
For one, Paula was extremely calm and normal. And to top that -- there were a few contestants who proved my quick prejudging skills were on the fritz.
Some call him Osama, others Jesus, Castro or even a homeless bum. What about the next American Idol? When it comes down to it, Sean Michel says, "all of us are homeless. All of us are poor inside." This cat is loaded -- with vocal talent. I echo Randy's sentiments, "I don't care what you look like. You can blow." I think I hear a snip, snip in his future though. I'm not saying he'll get cut from the competition any time soon. But I do
think he needs to rethink "the look."
Morris consoles Chloe who asks, "What if people I know keep dying?" Yeah, no kidding Chloe! That would be the question to ask when you are running around on this show. No one is safe. You blink and your favorite character could be kidnapped by terrorists, shot by Jack Bauer, or bitch slapped by an overworked Chloe.
Fayed makes a phone call to an accomplice who is angry the bomb was set off in his neighborhood. Fayed wants to get his hands on the other bombs to set them off and coerces his accomplice to help him.
Al-Assad makes it to CTU and informs them about a Russian general whom Fayed contacted about the nuclear bombs. Morris and Chloe start digging around and come up with a list of potential contacts including Jack's dad, Phillip Bauer! Bill calls Jack to tell him the news and Jack wants to be the one to question his father. Jack calls his father's home but talks to some guy named Sam who tells him that his father isn't around. Is Sam Jack's dad's boyfriend!?? I kind of get that vibe. Anyone else? If so, another twist I would have never seen coming.
Sam is being watched by some guy who calls Fayed's angry accomplice. Big twist. Angry accomplice is Jack's brother, Graham! I see a Cain and Abel fight coming up by the end of the episode. Jack calls his shady brother questioning the whereabouts of their dad. The brother has a throw away line about how their dad is probably out with one of his many girlfriends. There goes my earlier theory, but who is this Sam guy? Graham comes home to his family and the ever popular Rena Sofer is playing his wife. She is everwhere on TV. Turn the dial and she's Nathan's wheelchair bound wife on Heroes.
The Feds tell Sandra that they are putting a wire on Walid in order to get information from the other prisoners about the bomb. They stage an interrogation to prove to the other prisoners that Walid is on their side. Poor Walid is roughed up pretty badly, but it appears to work. Sandra gets some attitude from one of the Feds but she gives it back and gives a threat. She reminds me of the much missed Sherry Palmer. Moment of silence please. Ok, Walid is opening up to one of the prisoners who is buying it.
Fayed talks to some Darren guy who just picked up his high maintenance girlfriend or wife. Darren tells Fayed that he found someone to do his dirty work. I wonder if it's his girl. If so she is so going to screw up. President Palmer sits down to address the nation and his speech sounds too rehearsed and if he were the real President I would be so freaked out.
Is George's dad going to die? That's all I could think about when I hit play on my DVR. But was I right? And do Addison and Alex finally smoocharoo? Read my recap and find out.
Patient Stats: Georgie's dad had surgery and his recovery ain't going well… Preston's still in recovery… Meredith's half-sister's newborn is recovering after her operation, which means Mer's dad is around for another week… A girl with a major spinal curvature and attitude has an operation to fix her back.
Two characters met in line and became best buds. Kenneth, the one who people compare to Justin Timberlake, had all the moves. But Simon takes him down a notch, "You look a little odd. Your dancing... singing is horrendous and you look like one of those creatures in the jungle with those massive eyes." Next up, Jonathan, with his double digits crossed and hawaiian shirt tucked. He told the judges he should be the next American Idol because he is different and has an amazing personality. They both went home with a new friendship at least. As Jonathan tells it best, "One day it's a good vocal day. One day it's not a good vocal day. This was medium."
Access Hollywood's Billy Bush is hosting the newest reality show, Grease: You're The One That I Want every Sunday night. Each week, he'll give us a behind-the-scenes look at the judges' quest for the perfect Danny and Sandy to star in the musical version on Broadway this summer.
The New York auditions for Grease were solid on the air, but I wasn't there. I signed onto the show just in time for the Los Angeles auditions which were filmed third in sequence although they aired first on the air.
My impression was that the storylines were great. The couple whose very relationship was put to the test at the end proved that the relationship was actually built upon this Danny and Sandy fairytale.
Thankfully my wife and I aren't based upon being Sonny and Cher.
For Grease'lovers, it's about to get really good. This week's upcoming episode will look and feel like nothing else on TV. There is so much great action... singing and dancing and two elimination rounds that will ultimately lead to the final 12.
I am admitting that, so far, the show does not feel entirely original as there are other performance shows with auditions featuring the good, the bad and the ugly.
I am very excited and I know you will love this show. Remember, at the end of it all, our winners will have to perform, live on Broadway, eight shows per week. This show has more on the line than any other.
Sincerely,
Grease Lightning

First we saw the whole Kat and Taylor deciding moment. Then, all the idol accomplishments. Wow, there are a lot of them. But enough already with the recap. Give me something new.
Did you see the mass of people who actually think they are idol material? Yikes! Out of 10,000 hopefuls only 17 got that golden ticket in Minesota.
Day 6: Los Angeles
It's 6 AM and the news reports show destruction in San Diego. A young guy sits on a bus playing with his iPod when he detonates a bomb, blowing up the bus. So begins another long day for the workers of CTU.
Viewers learn that there's a new President Palmer in the White House -- brother Wayne. It's nice to see another President Palmer , but we all miss Jean Smart walking around in all her craziness.
We finally get to see inside CTU again and look for any familiar faces. There aren't many besides lovable Chloe. Oh wait -- it's Eric Balfour (Six Feet Under, Sex, Love & Secrets and Conviction) from the first season. This can't be good. He's generally the kiss of death for any show. Perhaps that's the premise for Season 6: Jack Bauer is going to have to save 24 from Eric Balfour's ability to bring on cancellation.
Moving On... Chloe has a new boyfriend, Morris. He appears to genuinely care for her although he seems shady. Maybe it's just me being cautious because every season there appears to be the one potential mole in CTU. Chloe also manages to have made a new enemy in the office with Nadia. Chloe is at her best when she's a snotty coworker. I can't wait until she smacks Nadia around a little.
Jack has gotten released from the Chinese prison he's been confined to for the past two years. Bill Buchanan and Curtis go to meet up the helicopter holding Jack. I know you normally don't look good if you're being held in a foreign prison, but Jack looks like a homeless mountain man. I can't wait for the scene where he gets cleaned up. We don't know much at this point other than Jack hasn't spoken in two years. Also, Karen is working for the President and we learn that she married Bill Buchanan! Who'd have thought? Talk about foreshadowing. This just isn't going to end well for them. I have a horrible feeling. The US wants Jack to sacrifice himself in order to get Assad, who they believe is behind the terrorist attacks.
They are always asking the most from him. I wonder what is annual reviews are like.
Patient Stats: Georgie's dad finally has surgery… Preston had surgery on his hand -- again! -- and is in recovery… Meredith's half-sister's baby is incubating, then needs emergency surgery… A girl with a major spinal curvature and attitude may get a McSteamy special to fix her back.
Operation Day: George's dad is finally having the operation after what feels like six months of build up. Chief and Bailey warn him that things could be bad but they won't know until they open him up. George's dad insists that the tumor be removed either way... but doesn't tell George. He's fighting the cancer -- not taking a "six weeks left to live" death sentence. In some cute scenes, George consults Preston about his father's case. Before the operation, George hangs with his dad and they chat about old times. The dad also tells George not to let "that Callie" get away… During the operation, Bailey and Chief learn that the cancer has spread everywhere. But instead of sewing him back up and giving six weeks to live, they remove the tumor per the patient's orders. Back in his room after the operation, George worries a ton about his father. But he gets some indications that he may pull through. George gives Callie a big kiss to celebrate.
Say Uncle! Christina and Preston still aren't talking. So she spends the whole episode trying to find out if he's having tremors after his operation. She keeps asking Meredith to find, but Mer declines. She also asks a nurse and George to find out. Mission not accomplished. Addison visits Preston and the topic turns to Christina. He reveals that they aren't speaking -- they're playing a game of "Uncle," waiting for the other one to give up. Addison tells him that he's pathetic.

And the winner of America's Next Top Model is... CariDee English. Ah, the nicer girl wins.
Read the recap...
Theme: Family
Patient Information: Adult conjoined twins who were ready for a separation after one brother's girlfriend started having feelings for the other brother as well… George's dad finally had his surgery… Meredith's half sister who went into early labor.
To Punish or Not to Punish: Chief decides that he's not going to punish Christina or Burke for the whole tremor cover-up. Needless to say, Dr. Bailey isn't pleased. So she was on a warpath with her interns, telling them that she's not taking any crap from them anymore. Shortly after, Bailey assigns Christina to George's dad and the rest of the interns are furious that she gets punished by getting a good case. Then, Bailey then brings them -- George, Izzie and Alex -- into the room with the adult conjoined twins and they're beside themselves with excitement.
We Are Family: Meredith is visiting her mom, Ellis, who is freaking out that Chief left her. Meredith tries to explain to the sick woman that he really left years ago. She's totally cuckoo though. At the hospital, Addison finds Meredith and tells her that Mer's half-sister has been admitted for an emergency c-section. (Quick flashback to last season: Meredith learned of their existence for the first time. She doesn't like them. The half-sister doesn't even know Meredith is related to her. It's a whole big, weird secret.) Meredith's stepmother is there too. Somehow Meredith gets assigned to her half-sister's case. When the baby is removed, it's not breathing. Addison has to operate and Meredith has to remain with the stepmother and half-sis to give them updates. When the baby pulls through, the stepmom hugs Mer and then says they should all start being a family. Meredith walks away. She ain't having it.
And the "winner" is… Jennifer!
That's right -- on last night's Bachelor: Rome, Lorenzo picked the Florida school teacher. But did she get a ring? And how did Sadie take it? Read on, then put in your two cents.
