Angie Harmon by Bob D'Amico/ABC; Joel Gretsch by Alan Zenuk/USA Network
The 4400's Joel Gretsch has been tapped to play Angie Harmon's new love interest on Women's Murder Club, sources confirm to me exclusively. His character, a charming hotel builder, bumps into Lindsay at the Hall of Justice and, as you might've guessed, it's lust at first sight. As you also might've guessed, he's harboring a humdinger of a secret, the specifics of which I'll get into in this week's Ausiello Report vodcast. Look for that tomorrow at around 10 am/ET.Gretsch is slated to appear in all three of Murder Club's post-strike episodes.In the meantime, help this non-4400 zealot out: Is Gretsch a good match for Harmon? Judging by the pics above, I'm inclined to say yesssiiirrreeebob!

Angie Harmon, Women's Murder Club
With her new hit Women's Murder Club (Fridays, 9 pm/ET, ABC), Angie Harmon proves she's still arresting. TV Guide talked with the sultry homicide detective about doing her stunts, an upcoming romance story arc, and how she balances motherhood and acting.
It's another 14-hour day on the set of Women's Murder Club, ABC's new hit based on James Patterson's phenomenally popular mystery novels. But today is particularly rewarding for star Angie Harmon. To convince a certain actor to take on a guest role, she jokes that she "put on a really sexy outfit and begged." It's OK, the actor in question is hubby Jason Sehorn, the ex-NFL star who famously proposed to Harmon on The Tonight Sh

Question: Do you realize you might have millions of Moonlight fans beating down your door, torches in hand? (Joking.) We Moonlight fans admit that the pilot was just OK, but it did have a really good ending that spoke of promise. And if you have kept watching, you'll notice that they get better and better each week. The show has a lot of promise, and after the cast/writer/etc. shake-ups, it has come out from under. A lot of other critics have agreed with you in being critical of the premiere, but please give it another look. It is a good show and has the promise to be great. And, sorry, but Women's Murder Club is terrible, and Angie Harmon is painful to watch. I may be biased, as I am a fan of the books, but hey, it is what it is. You have many loyal readers who put stake in what you have to say, so give Moonlight another look. The fans would like a kind word from someone they trust.
Answer: I could fill an entire column with gush from advocates for Moonlight, which really isn't

Angie Harmon in Women's Murder Club by Danny Feld/ABC
My loyalties are so divided on Friday nights. I want ABC’s so-so new crime drama Women’s Murder Club to do well enough to bring some much-needed eyeballs to the charming romantic comedy Men in Trees, which finally returns from a cruel nearly eight-month hiatus. With James Patterson’s name as a selling point for Murder Club (though he’s not writing this series any more than he appears to be penning half of the books that go out with co-writers’ names on his ubiquitous book jackets), the show certainly has a shot at commercial success, even on a night that’s widely considered a graveyard. Remember: This same night, and this same time period (9 pm/ET), is where the original CSI launched to even less fanfare, and the rest is TV history.But I also don’t want anything to take audience away from Murder Club’s competition, most notably NBC’s ever-fragile Friday Night Lights, which offers another superb episode this week. Even if like many observe...

8:54 am: We're in the homestretch, folks, and that can only mean one thing: Critics have begun recycling their old underwear. That explains the wall of stank I just walked through entering the Beverly Hilton's ballroom.8:58 am: As we wait for ABC president Stephen McPherson to take the stage for the exec session, let me take a moment to extend a big thank-you to the generous folks at ABC Studios who had a case of Diet Raspberry Snapple shipped to my room yesterday afternoon. Just for that, I'm going to take it easy on Big Shots. I was planning to call it a charmless piece of fecal matter; now I'm merely calling it unwatchable. Behold the power of Snapple!EXECUTIVE SESSION9:10 am: The first question... does not include the words "Isaiah" or "Washington." Darn. 9:13 am: On Lost's game-changing season finale, McPherson says it really "opened up a new world" for the show, adding that Team Darlton "pitched us where they're going this year, and where they're going the next two years." He ...

Even with all the success ABC has had on Sunday and Thursday (thanks to the bold move of Grey's Anatomy to that night), there are plenty of other time periods throughout the week where the network simply wasn't competitive this past season. But while the struggling NBC cautiously put together a schedule that seemed designed to retain its diminished share of advertiser dollars, ABC is being much more aggressive. In the new lineup presented to advertisers Wednesday at Alice Tully Hall, entertainment president Stephen McPherson threw a lot of stuff against the scheduling board in the hope that something will stick.Determined to get back into the comedy game, ABC gave Sam I Am with Christina Applegate the benefit of a Dancing with the Stars lead-in on Monday. Not a bad bet, since ABC's appeal is strongest among women 35-plus — and Applegate is now one of them, believe it or not. Two new comedies with a male skew will lead off Tuesday, in an attempt to get some ratings traction by t...

Angie Harmon, Secrets of a Small Town
It's that time of year again: Network executives are spending these lovely spring days in dark screening rooms, searching for next fall's big hit. As we approach the mid-May unveiling of the new 2006-07 prime-time schedules, the Biz is here to provide you with an early glimpse of which drama pilots are heating up. We'll report on the sitcoms next week.
ABC: Secrets of a Small Town — a drama starring Angie Harmon about a small town whose residents have plenty of skeletons in the closet — is believed to have the inside track for the Sunday-night slot after Desperate Housewives. (It's now a given that the network will move the superhot Grey's Anatomy to another night where it can help launch a new show.) Also hot are Six Degrees — another ensemble soap about six strangers whose lives intertwine in New York — and Traveler, about three graduate students involved in a national-security emergency.
