Mario Lopez Partners Up with the CW

More good news for Mario Lopez, who already has been spared having to display that garish Dancing with the Stars trophy in his home: Variety reports that the former Saved by the Bell beefcake has inked a talent holding deal with the CW, as part of which the network will either develop a starring vehicle for Lopez or cast him in a fall 2007 pilot. Hmm, a CW pilot? That Dancing disco ball is starting to look good after all....
