In the Works: Las Vegas' New Boss Is on Thin Ice

Tom Selleck by Chris Reardon/CBS
CBS has ordered a fifth installment of
Tom Selleck's sleuthing series:
Jesse Stone: Thin Ice, to start shooting in August in Nova Scotia. Hallmark Channel has grabbed rights to the previous four entries, with the first set to air Aug. 4.... USA Network has greenlit 11 episodes of
To Love and Die, a series starring
Shiri "Don't Call Me Amy From" Appleby as a gal with abandonment issues she believes can be resolved if she could track down the father (
Tim Matheson) she never knew. (Oops, turns out Dad is an assassin-for-hire!) The cast also includes Frances Fisher, Christine Adams, Kristin Datillo and possibly Ivan Sergei. Look for an early-2008 premiere.
