ALSO OFF THE UNEMPLOYMENT LINE

The CW network has gotten serious about its Flirt, picking up the sitcom that casts Wayne Brady as a women's magazine's only male employee — or, for short, rare beef.... L.A. Law alum Susan Ruttan is returning to series TV — or at least trying to. She's going to work on NBC's untitled comedy about a couple of brothers boarding together. She will not be playing either man.... A role is being developed for America's Next Top Model diva Eva Pigford on Fox's proposed The Wedding Album drama, which stars Nip/Tuck's Bruno Campos. Sixties babe Connie Stevens has also come aboard.... Strong Medicine's Rosa Blasi has affixed herself to NBC's Inseparable pilot starring Christine Baranski and Ed O'Neill.
