Donald Sutherland, Josh Charles
Donald Sutherland has joined the cast of the CBS drama pilot The Eastmans, playing — wait for it — the wealthy and wily patriarch of a large family. Of doctors. Ergo, Sutherland's character is a distinguished cardiologist, whereas Dirty Sexy Money's Tripp Darling gave people heart attacks.
He'a also the husband of Jacqueline Bisset, who became an Eastman earlier this week.
In other CBS pilot news, Josh Charles (Sports Night) will play ...

Well... yeah!In an interview with BBC Radio, actor Donald Sutherland (Dirty Sexy Money) talked about his son Kiefer's recent prison stay. "Jail was tough for him. He had 48 days inside, 23 hours a day in solitary. It was very, very cold," he told BBC's Newsbeat. "There were no windows. He had no community. I also made a deposit at the prison so he could call out. We were given 14 minutes for every call," the proud papa said of the 24 star's incarceration.Kiefer Sutherland was arrested on Sept. 25 for DUI and pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor drunk-driving charge. This was his fourth DUI arrest. He was sentenced to 30 days for the DUI charge and 18 days for violating his probation stemming from an earlier DUI charge.The elder Sutherland believes his son has learned his lesson, and remains optimistic about his hit TV series: "[Now] that he's out, he said that the next two seasons of 24 will be the best two years of television in the United States." Fox will air a two-hour TV-movie t...

In Part 4 of TVGuide.com's new Body Talk series, we celebrate stars who are proving that you don't have to be young to be beautiful. The pressure to be perfect in Hollywood isn't too discriminating — most celebs get it most of the time. But as people start to get older, they tend to become a bit more wrinkly, their skin a bit droopier... and they generally don't look like they did at 30. Well, that may happen in real life — but what about on television and in the movies?Some of our favorite TV stars are showing just how gorgeous aging gracefully can be. (Whether that's with some assistance or as a result of healthy living and good genes, we're not speculating.) And one of the nicest things about them? They're playing characters who are... actually their age. Donald Sutherland, 72, and Jill Clayburgh, 63, for example, are standouts as Tripp and Letitia, the parents of the dysfunctional yet successful Darling clan on one of this season's best guilty pleasures, Dirty Sexy Mon...

If the barometer of an interesting TV awards show is the number of fresh faces invited to the party, then the Golden Globe nominations (announced Thursday morning) passes the test. Not with a perfect score, mind you. Any institution that so completely ignores NBC's wonderful Friday Night Lights deserves some spirited jeering.And the Globes' addiction to sexy sizzle and hype can lead to some puzzling choices: Big Love, fun as it is, over The Sopranos' final season? Bill Paxton over James Gandolfini? (And if the Globes is going to shower love on Big Love, how could the women who play Bill's wives go unheralded, especially Ginnifer Goodwin?) Californication over Weeds?But let's look at the bright side. The Hollywood Foreign Press clearly spent some time checking out the TV landscape during last summer's remarkable season of cable breakthroughs. My own pick for No. 1 show of the year, AMC's Mad Men, is nominated for best drama, along with its dashing leading man, Jon Hamm. FX's Damages,...

Im not sure how many more eps of Dirty Sexy Money are in the can but I am worried we are going to get stuck in the middle of a serious cliff hangar I suspected when Tripp got on the phone and told the person on the line to find out what Simon wanted with the Darlings financials that it was Karen But I wasnt really sure until the last scene So if shes getting busy with Simon for her Dad then what are her reasons Is it just to get Nick Walking into the Nutcracker crying certainly got his attention Though I think Tripps reasons are far more business related And theres some question as to whether Tripp isnt using Nick to make it seem though hes protecting Karen from Simon And speaking of which Simon inviting Karen over to meet his ex was a little mean he could have warned her at least Because if he is just using her then why did he want to get approval from his ex unless Could the Princess be in cahoots with him aga

Its all happeningOh how I hate to gloat but way back in the second episode of Dirty Sexy Money The Lions I offered the following Did we see a tiny glimmer of kindness from the bitter Brian when he sent the boy to bed Perhaps he and Nick are half-brothers Or could it be that Tish and Dutch had two children Brian and Nick the other set of twins Hmmm Tooting ones horn is so unbecoming but TOOT TOOT Many of you had the same idea as well so Im sure I wasnt the first to think it I just got to point it out Good to know were all on the same track Im still not 100 certain that Tish isnt somehow Nicks mom as well The boys are the same age And Nicks mother was quick to dismiss him Once again I say HmmmSo we have confirmation that Brian and Nick are brothers if we didnt know before the show started we should have been able to tell as they strode side by side into the courtroom be

If there was ever a thrill-a-minute Dirty Sexy Money tonights episode was the one Simon Elder has a different name one I imagine starts with the letter C no doubt I could not believe that he had the cahones to dynamite the old Darling Plaza Has he no heart Has he not seen those touching scenes of Tripp waxing nostalgic about the 15-story building he once called home Ah cruelty As if that wasnt shocking enough Ellen really pulled the rabbit out of the hat when she shot Paddy in the leg and boy did he deserve it We knew she had it in her when she invited Carmelita to tea and yet it was a complete surprise when she pulled the trigger It was the emotional relationship with Carmlita that pushed Ellen over the edge more than the sexual one More power to you sister Patrick was such a mamby-pamby during Ellen and Carms meeting it begs the question how does a guy like Patrick have two women fighting over him Ellens face when

Or not Karen and Freddie were married in a beautiful ceremony and divorced 45 minutes later a record even for her We knew she wouldnt last long with the second-rate golfer but the big news was that she finally admitted that she is in love with Nick I found it rather sad that she was so freaked out when Freddie got down on his knees and professed his love for her and she immediately requested a divorce He did get 3 million worth of Dirty Sexy Money so how hard could it really be Letitia tried to drink the candle when Karen said she wanted to marry Nick and asked Karen to let me help you completely conspiratorially All I can say is Karen may be a lot of nasty things but she looks good without makeup When Karen kissed Nick he ran guiltily home to Lisa and told her how much he loved her Im yours he repeated twice because everyone on this show has two loves Somehow I wasnt totally convinced the second was for his wifePatri

William Baldwin, Dirty Sexy Money
Thrice-wed Karen Darling may be headed down the aisle again on Dirty Sexy Money (10 pm/ET, ABC) tonight, but it's her brother Patrick who's in for some serious marital mayhem after his affair with transgendered knockout Carmelita is hauled out of the closet. We talked with William Baldwin about playing the shady politico and maintaining his own family ties.
TV Guide: Of all the political scandals we've seen, Patrick and Carmelita definitely break the mold.Baldwin: Some might think it's kinky or deviant, and he may have been drawn [to Carmelita] for those reasons, but at some point it became very real. I have friends who say that we're the most normal couple on the show, the most stable. People seem to be loving it.
TV Guide: Even though we've already been through the politician-and-his-wronged-w
