Actor and environmental activist Ed Begley Jr. is adding another series to his already extensive resume. Begley has joined the new CBS comedy series Gary Unmarried (née Project Gary), which focuses on a newly divorced dad (Jay Mohr) and his calculating ex, Allison (Paula Marshall). The St. Elsewhere alum will play the bright (yet exceptionally arrogant) therapist who attempts to counsel Gary and Allison through their split-up — all the while being engaged to the latter! (Larry Miller played the counselor in the original pilot.)Begley's recent credits include the pot-fueled Pineapple Express, hitting theaters this week, and HBO's election drama Recount. — Gina DiNunno

Just to get this out of the way, was there ever a more nonsensical piece of dialogue than, “Harassment is not without its consequences/My team thrives on consequences”? I’m serious. What does that mean? How can one thrive on consequences?I have to admit to being slightly uncomfortable with this episode.

OK, let’s work this one out together. Of the three men on the “mancation” — sidenote: has anyone in the history of anything ever called a vacation a mancation? Or am I tragically unhip? — the one who wasn’t Dennis or Rob (but whose name I never caught) killed Tess, and Dennis killed the bodyguard Rocko. Then he got nervous and wanted to call the cops, so Rob and not-Rob smeared Dennis’ vest with vanilla bought from the man from Deliverance so that the only grizzly bear living in the Everglades could maul Dennis. Everyone got it so far? Then, it turns out that Tess was only at the hotel in the first place because Anna had to make her demo tape. But because Anna was actually part of a prostitution ring, Horatio is in trouble with a horny politico played by Ed Begley Jr.Now my head hurts.Maybe it’s because this show airs late-ish and my brain isn’t in working order. Then again, maybe it’s because the plot made no sense. Last week I p...
