Hey, Tom!
The news that Greenwalt is involved is the first thing that has made me even vaguely interested in that vampire PI show, I must say.

Hey, Tom!
The news that Greenwalt is involved is the first thing that has made me even vaguely interested in that vampire PI show, I must say.
I read over on TWOP that Frank Capra is going to do an episode of The Closer.
But I have no idea which one.
And I just read a casting rumor that Bradley Cooper is going to be on the new season of Nip/Tuck. Didn't hear whether it was a one-shot, recurring or what.
Hey, the guy who plays "Sam" the cute homeless guy on the Starter Wife is going to play "Bill" in the TV version of True Blood.
One of my friends works on Torchwood, and says the Who end rumour is crap. Who and Torchwood are very unusual in UK TV terms, in that they're sharing staff, they're long, long UK series and they're quite complex (CGI, location shoots etc). A usual UK series is about 6 episodes in total, with a budget about a tenth of an average US first season show, with little in the way of complexity (see also: budget). And they normally run for one or two series max. So you can understand why producers might be finding the work on Who & Torchwood drowning, especially considering the budget for an entire series of Who is roughly that of one episode of Firefly.
Ooh, I just read a Heroes casting rumor over at TWOP - whitefonting for the very, very timid because I have no idea how true this is: David Anders.
That's it.
I heard the same thing.
That'd be super cool.
While I like him, when he was on Grey's Anatomy as a guest person, I was irked that he wasn't more sark like, i.e., accented in a cutely hot way.
So if he shows up on Heroes, please let it be with an evil british accent.
Another Heroes casting spoiler:
Bollywood actress and former Miss World Aishwarya Rai has signed up to star in Heroes.
The Indian beauty will appear in 8 episodes of the coming series of the NBC show.
Aishwarya Rai will play the role of Dr. Mohinder Suresh’s elder sister Shanti Suresh, and will have a -non specified yet- special ability.
Aishwarya will begin shooting later this month, and she is expected to be seen on screen from early October of this year.
