FALL 2006: CASTING ABOUT

Anne Heche likes Men. More specifically, the ABC pilot Men in Trees, in which she has landed the lead as a woman who moves to Alaska after her husband cheats on her.... Also, per the Hollywood Reporter, Jeff Goldblum is in talks to front NBC's Seeing Red (eccentric cop has the ability to talk to dead crime victims), Queer as Folk's Gale Harold has the lead in Fox's Vanished (a 24-style thriller about the disappearance of a senator's wife), Jodi Lyn O'Keefe has joined Fox's The 12th Man (inspired by NBA bench-rider Paul Shirley), and Bonnie Somerville (NYPD Blue) will star opposite Danny Comden in the comedian's ABC series.

Wow. Caesar's named emperor by...

Wow. Caesar's named emperor by a senate that has no choice, and immediately promises "justice, peace and land for all its citizens, not just the privileged few." Sounds nice, huh? Wonder if he'll stick to it any better than our contemporary politicians. Speaking of politics, those pale in comparison with the cold maneuvering between Atia and Servilia, which we see when Atia shows up to see how Servilia's recovering from the attack Atia herself ordered. Hmmm... one has ruined the other's relationship and had her whipped and stripped naked in the street, the other's maneuvered her rival's kids into bed with each other to try to get inside info on her former lover.

I used to hate Oasis. I mean I...

I used to hate Oasis. I mean I hated those Beatles wannabes. Then I saw them perform "Champagne Supernova" on the Video Music Awards — back when the VMAs were worth watching — and that was that. I was hooked. Liam Gallagher slurred his way through the lyrics, spit dramatically on the stage and gave everyone in the audience (and in his own band) the hairy eyeball. It was so very rock and roll. And J.D., while thankfully not spitting on his fans, had the same effect on me this week with his performances, especially "Pretty Vegas." From the series' start, I just didn't like the guy. But damned if he didn't win me over with his I-am-who-I-am 'tude and versatile voice. Did you catch his falsetto runs in the acoustic "Vegas"? Simply sublime. Yet J.D. still ended up in the bottom three, with sultry Suzie and Broadway MiG, who I thought would be bounced back to the boards. But I was wrong; Suzie was sent home, an

Two and a Half Men 9:10 am The session begins, and with Charlie Sheen up there like a sitting duck, I'm bummed that the first question isn't, "So, why did Denise dump you?" Does that make me a bad person? I think it does.9:19 "We have to have fart jokes [on the show]," reasons Sheen's TV mom, the regal Holland Taylor, "because everyone in the cast farts constantly." Tee-hee. Holland Taylor said "farts."9:25 A reporter asks another question that isn't, "I have to ask: You. Denise. What's the deal there, huh?" Bummer.9:40 Scoop! Charlie confirms that his real-life pa, Martin Sheen, will guest-star this season. 9:45 Speaking on behalf of chiropractors everywhere, a reporter informs Jon Cryer — who plays a back-cracker on Men — that "they love the fact that you're giving them a face."9:50 Scoo
