• OK, We Get It, JVDB! In his latest attempt to prove he's totally not the squeaky-clean Creek boy of yesterseason, James Van Der Beek has taken a role on ABC's The Forgotten, our frenemy reveals, as a dark and shady financial broker. (We're talking to James, Kevin Williamson and other former Creeksters next week, so email any Q's to tvdiva@eonline.com or tweet @kristinalert.)
• Melrose Place Pulled... From Wednesday nights, that is. The CW has yanked repeats of Melrose in favor of repeats of Vampire Diaries, proving boss Kevin Williamson is not forgotten. (And neither are Ian S.'s abs.)
• Even Sweeter Than the Real Top Chef: Yum! There's a spinoff in the works called Just Desserts, with pastry chefs. Word is a certain E! Online columnist would not cry if they asked her to judge.
• Big Bang Throw-Down: Ruh roh! Executive producer Bill Prady promises "a big, giant, knockdown, drag-out fight" for Penny and Leonard, after which she will run into an old flame. We're no mathematicians, but this seems to add up to trouble in geek paradise.
• Dollhouse: If you love this show, tell a friend. Friday night's ratings hit an all-time low. Ugly Betty is also down 14 percent.
Jeffrey: Was that really Jayma Mays singing "I Could Have Danced All Night" on Glee?
You mean Miss Jayma-Mazing? Fox tells me that yes, it was. And I'm told that's not the last we'll see of her singing on the show.
