Last week in his "Joy of Sets" column right here at DVD News & Reviews, Damian Holbrook posted his "wish list of shows [he] would LOVELOVELOVE to show up on DVD during 2008" (that's a direct quote). Near the top of Damian's list was the 2002 series Fastlane, created by McG through Warner Bros. Television, and airing on the Fox Network.The show starred Peter Facinelli (Six Feet Under, Damages), Bill Bellamy (How to Be a Player, Any Given Sunday) and Tiffani Thiessen (aka Tiffani-Amber Thiessen; Beverly Hills 90210, Saved by the Bell) as undercover cops using confiscated goods to go after the crooks in L.A., and included a ton of great guest stars among the 22 episodes produced.Now Peter Facinelli's official website is saying that the show is on its way to DVD this coming summer. If that doesn't put a smile on Damian's face, I'm not sure what will!For more details about this, and for a look at the graphic showing off the news, read the full story at TVShowsOnDVD.com! David...

I think I'm favoring some of the new faces on this show. Jessica Szohr is a feisty one! There was definitely a spark between her and Brian before Stephanie came in with her thigh-high boots, asking for a T-shirt to sleep in. There's a lot of sexual tension within that apartment complex, and I'm not sure how Brian and Bridget will fare while Lucy and Ethel are around. Tiffani Thiessen is a welcome addition as well. (Check out my interview with Saved by the Bells Kelly Kapowski to hear about her Brian guest run.) She's just getting started stirring the pot among Dave and friends. In fact, it looks like she's on the prowl in the previews, but we'll have to wait two weeks to find out who falls under her spell. I definitely saw some of my old friend, Valerie Malone, from Beverly Hills, 90210. The devilish smirk, the secret scheming
that's pure Val right there. But Fatty Natty's carving her own mold despite hints of the previous bad girls Thiessen has on her résumè. ...

Zack Morris, eat your heart out. Kelly Kapowski's lengthy tresses and spandex minis have nothing on the sexy, manipulative roles Tiffani Thiessen has filled since leaving Saved by the Bell's Bayside High. Having actually shed her on-screen sweetheart persona long ago — her most memorable post-Bell gig was as Beverly Hills, 90210 troublemaker Valerie Malone — Thiessen continues to shake things up, this time with a saucy turn on ABC's What About Brian (starting tonight at 10 pm/ET). Via e-mail, Thiessen shared with TVGuide.com her thoughts on "appealing" to her audience, vying for an Ugly role and supporting her former costars.

Question: As much as I try to get into What About Brian, something about it just doesn't stick. It has its moments. I hope the newest addition of Tiffani Thiessen changes that. She's great at playing the tease. Though I have to say, I was hoping Thiessen would make a cameo/brief appearance at least on Grey's Anatomy as another one of Derek's sisters with a McSteamy past. What are your thoughts?
Answer: Just guessing, but if Thiessen had her choice, I bet she'd have picked going on Grey's over Brian as well. As for her joining the What About Brian ensemble: another case of too little too late ...
