Hung starts out strong, Drea De Matteo lands another new role
by Johnny Firecloud
Jul 02, 2009

 

ABC has confirmed that Drea de Matteo has joined the cast of "Desperate Housewives" for season six. Normally, we'd avoid any news on that wretched cougar-hunt show like it were a swarm of angry bees, but I've been in love with Drea since her stint on "The Sopranos," so this one time, just once, we'll give it a mention.

 

With Edie (Nicollette Sheridan) dead and another housewife getting married, executive producer Marc Cherry needed to bring some new spark to Fairview.  Drea will play an Italian homemaker - a real standout role for the show (yes, that was a joke- everybody's a goddamn housewife on the show - just look at the title).

 

Does this mean she's done with "Sons of Anarchy"? No way of knowing yet, but things aren't looking too good for her role over there.

 


 

The premiere of HBO's newest comedy, "Hung," was watched by 2.8 million viewers, making it the network's most-watched series debut in two years.

The show, about a well-endowed man (Thomas Jane) who decides to use his assets to their highest potential, was the strongest premiere for the network since "John From Cincinnati," which aired after the series finale of "The Sopranos" in June 2007.

 

Lead-in "True Blood," meanwhile, hit yet another series high, drawing 3.7 million viewers. "Hung" held 76 percent of the vampire drama's audience.


 

 

Girl Next Door Kendra Wilkinson and her Philadelphia Eagle boyfriend Hank Baskett, got married Saturday night at the Playboy Mansion, according to the crack team over at E! News.

 

"I could not be more delighted," Playboy founder Hugh Hefner told E! "This is one of the happiest days in one of the happiest places on earth."

 


 

Zap2it's Pilot Light series continues with "Community," the only new comedy on NBC's fall schedule this year. After good advance buzz throughout pilot season, the network is hoping it will fit in with the likes of "The Office," "30 Rock" and "Parks and Recreation."

 

In the show, Jeff ("The Soup's" Joel McHale) is a lawyer with a knack for persuasive finesse, as well as half-assing his way through life. That comes back to bite him when his college degree is invalidated and he has to earn a new one starting at a community college populated by "remedial teens, twentysomething dropouts, middle-aged divorcees and old people keeping their minds active as they circle the drain of eternity," as the pilot puts it. Sounds... interesting? Joel McHale is hilarious on "The Soup," but I don't know how well he'd translate to sitcom. Guess we'll see in the fall!
