As hoped, Megan Mullally and Cheryl Hines have signed on to join the cast of In the Motherhood, ABC's broadcast adaptation of the popular online series starring Chelsea Handler, Leah Remini and Jenny McCarthy, and chronicling "the hilarious ups and downs of motherhood."While Mullally (a winner of two Emmys for her work on Will & Grace) and Hines (twice nominated for Curb Your Enthusiasm) represent the only official casting to date, there has been speculation that from the Internet original, Handler might cross over to round out the trio.ABC's In the Motherhood is targeted for an early 2009 bow. — Matt Mitovich

Further proof that Kathy's big mouth (you know, the one that I love so much) does indeed get her into trouble: we got to learn this week that Kathy has been re-banned from The View. Kathy’s been banned from a lot of shows, but, per Kathy: "This is my first re-banning." Seems executive producer Bill Geddie wasn't quite ready...to forgive Kathy for something she included in her recent Bravo special Kathy Griffin: Straight To Hell. For those who missed it, Kathy hilariously recalled her conversation inside the View hair & makeup room before her last appearance where the discussion was K-Y Jelly and other lubricants. Babs Walters allegedly said: "I prefer Astroglide." Apparently, sharing makeup room conversations with TV viewers is a no-no, so Kathy was re-banned from appearing on The View. As Stockard Channing so eloquently put it as Rizzo in Grease, "Some people are so touchy."So, even though her gig at Madison Square Garden was sold out, Kathy still wanted to do some press w...

Horatio Sanz by Joe Kohen/WireImage.com
Saturday Night Live alum Horatio Sanz is the latest to be cast in the ABC fall comedy, Bad Mother's Handbook, sources tell TVGuide.com. Sanz is slated to play Charlotte's (Alia Shawkat) father, Matt.Thus far, the show already has an impressive starting roster. Alicia Silverstone will play a 32-year-old mom who's caring for both her teen daughter and her middle-aged mother, who will be played by Megan Mullally. What remains to be seen is where Silverstone and Sanz are in their relationship: Is he the ex? Are they together? At the very least, they're going to have scenes together, right?With so much talent wrapped up already, the comedy at least has some solid underpinnings for its debut, plus it will be eye-opening (we hope) to see Sanz in a recurring, scripted role. Will you be tuning in? — Anna DimondUse our Online Video Guide to catch Horatio's hilarious SNL skits and more.Related:• Pilot News: Alicia Silverstone Is One Bad Mother• Megan Mullally to Play Silverstone...

With the long Memorial Day holiday this weekend, let's have some fun and play a game!We've actually played this game before, last October. I had a different blog back then, called "DVD Guy", and I called the game "Today's Stars...Yesterday!" We all had a great deal of fun, and lots of readers chimed in with their own examples of big-name celebs they've seen "in smaller roles, during leaner times".The way to play is very simple: Think of hot "new" stars that you see in any current TV show, and try to think of where you've spotted them on DVDs of older programs. Probably only slightly older shows, but there's absolutely no limit. Let's just have a blast with it! I'll give us several examples, just to get us started:• Grey's Anatomy wrapped their fourth season last night, and the younger Dr. Grey wrapped her first full season in the show. Chyler Leigh's straight-laced turn as "Lexi" might not make her recognizable, though, to the few of us who saw her as punk-rockin', spike-m...

This just in: Emmy-winner Megan Mullally has officially signed on to play Alicia Silverstone's mama in ABC's new fall comedy Bad Mother's Handbook.

Unless you count her eponymous talk show. But for her sake, let's not.
