Watch with Kristin

ABC/MARIO PEREZ

Not even Jerry O'Connell's bare backside could save it.

Despite JOC telling us he was just shooting some "sexy scenes" last night on the set of Eastwick, the news has broken that his wife Rebecca Romijn's series is a goner. ABC has confirmed that no new episodes will be produced beyond the original 13-episode commitment.

So this means Lost is a shoo-in to come back to Wednesday nights, right?

Maybe not.

ABC insiders tell me another series might be headed for that cushy slot, and its star happens to rock a mean Guadalajara poncho...

Inside sources and ABC confirm that producers of Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice are planning another crossover event.

Anatomy star Chandra Wilson recently made a visit to the Santa Monica-set spinoff show Private Practice, and now Eric Dane and Kate Walsh are set to appear on both Shonda Rhimes shows on the same night.

So why are the old lovers reconnecting? Here's what we're hearing...

As I have been teasing for weeks, Heroes is killing off a major character later this season.

The death is a huge twist for the show, so I didn't want to ruin the surprise for you, but now that another outlet has leaked the secret, it's time for me to reveal the truth:

Adrian Pasdar's Nathan Petrelli is the major character death happening on Heroes this season, and no, he wasn't told he was getting fired, he learned about it from a script.

But what about reports from fellow Heroes castmembers that the Petrelli brothers were definitely safe?

This reality-contestant merry-go-round is dizzying. Can we get off?

Thanks to baseball playoffs wreaking havoc on Fox's schedule, So You Think You Can Dance is all mixed up this season. Usually the two-hour competition episode would air on Tuesday, fans would vote overnight and an elimination episode would air Wednesday, but until the World Series is done, competition and elimination happens on the same night, and there's no fan voting to save couples from elimination. The judges decide among themselves who's going home.

Here's what happened during tonight's Top 20 competition, complete with pairings, dances and the identities of the two eliminees who got the full Cat Deeley precious-darling treatment on the way out:

Nigel Lythgoe is a tease!

The So You Think You Can Dance executive producer got us all excited last week when he tweeted, "All you Paula Abdul fans please check out next Monday's show." So, we waited tonight, with bated breath, for the erstwhile American Idol judge to pop up on tonight's installment of So You Think You Can Dance...but we waited in vain.

Instead of delivering the real deal, Nigel presented only an empty judge's chair with Paula's name on it, saying, "I've asked somebody to come along and be a guest judge whenever they can, so I've asked [the crew] to put a chair next to me just in case [Paula Abdul] ever turns up. It'd be lovely to see her. I'm putting the pressure on her!" OK then. (This is apparently Nigel's passive-aggressive version of emotional blackmail.)

Still, even with the Paula Abdul anticlimax leading off the episode, tonight's first-ever showcase show was a doozy, and we must discuss what went down, as well as a little late-breaking (and tragic) news about this season's top 20.

UPDATE, 8:28 p.m.: If you haven't seen it yet, don't miss our exclusive interview with Colin Egglesfield about why he left the show...

UPDATE: Ashlee Simpson-Wentz just released a statement to E! News about her departure from Melrose Place, saying, "Having the chance to play Violet on Melrose Place has been a thrill. Although I always knew her story would come to a final, insanely unpredictable end, playing a creepy, unstable character was something I always wanted to do, so I jumped at the chance. Thanks to the CW and the entire cast and crew of Melrose Place for allowing me this opportunity!"
___________

Spoiler alert: The producers of Melrose Place are spoiling you.

While such surprising cast changes are usually held under iron-clad lock and key, the CW has confirmed that Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and Colin Egglesfield will be let go from the cast of Melrose Place in January. In their place, we'll get some new characters.

So why are Ashlee (Violet) and Colin (Auggie) getting the boot?

Ain't no party like a Party Down party!

Kristen Bell knows it. So does Jane Lynch. Which is why, even though they're kind of a big deal now (news flash: K.Bell on the big screen and J.Lynch on Fox's Glee), we can tell you exclusively that both boldass blondes will be coming back to Starz's thoroughly entertaining comedy Party Down.

Turns out Kristen is going to be canoodling with Party Down's leading man, Adam Scott, which begs the question: What about his first-season flame Casey, aka Lizzy Caplan of True Blood? And does this mean Kristen is sticking around for good?

We infiltrated the Party Down set for exclusive scoop on the new season...

Score one for the vampire people! (And the incredibly good-looking West Hollywood-living people?)

CW just picked up a full season of the breakout freshman hit The Vampire Diaries, and the network has also ordered five more episodes of Melrose Place.

Why did Vampire Diaries get a full season while Melrose Place didn't? Here's what we're hearing...

Update, 2:47 p.m.:

It's all true, dammit.

So You Think You Can Dance executive producer Nigel Lythgoe just released a statement about choreographer Mia Michaels' Twitter-telegraphed exit: "We are thrilled to have given a talent such as Mia Michaels a platform to create Emmy Award-winning choreography. During the auditions this season she has helped choose the best, most diverse top 20 we have ever had. She knows that she is always welcome to return later this season or next. She's chosen to move on to new challenges and we will continue to support her and wish her all the best."

OK, so now that this is real (argh!), we have to start wondering: Why is she really leaving?

Many of you seem to think this has something to do with the elevation of Adam Shankman as a permanent judge. Could that be it, or might there be something else afoot? Why do you think Mia's leaving us?

Post your take in the comments...

This Post-it Note just in! Meredith Grey won't go missing from Seattle Grace after all.

Sources confirm that Ellen Pompeo is expected to return to the set of Grey's Anatomy "very soon" after giving birth to baby girl Stella Luna Sept. 15. Thanks to her early return, as well as her willingness to preshoot scenes before the birth (most of which took place in bed after Meredith's liver surgery in last night's ep), it is working out that not a single episode will go Meredith Grey-less.

Pretty good news for Meredith and Derek fans, right?

As for all you Owen and Christina fans who are freaking out over rumors of trouble in paradise...

Hey, ABC. You did good today!

Not only did the Alphabet net pick up some show called The Middle which we're just going to sort of gloss right over, but network reps also just confirmed that they've given a full-season pickup to both Courteney Cox's (and Scrubs producer Bill Lawrence's) promising new comedy Cougar Town and our pick for the best new comedy of the season: Modern Family.

Don't you love it when good TV survives?

And yet, this also just in: Sources confirm that a certain NBC show many of you fans love has just been canceled. Southland starring Ryan Atwood Ben McKenzie is not going on the air at all this season, despite a planned Oct. 23 premiere. (And a certain costar is tweeting his, um, disappointment, to put it lightly...)

According to our favorite frenemy, Jennifer Morrison's run as Dr. Allison Cameron on House will end midseason, and her exit was a creative decision on the part of the producers. (Meaning Morrison didn't quit; she was written out.)

OK, so that's the alleged behind-the-scenes situation—according to a rep, "The show does not have any comment" on reports of Morrison's exit—but forget the Hollywood drama. What drives Cameron to ditch her job at Princeton-Plainsboro after more than five years in House's orbit?

Read on for the exclusive scoop we got from insiders on why Cameron leaves her husband and the hospital...
