Yes, Blair, we did. That's September 1 for the season premiere.
That's all we know, except this: According to People, this dude will be playing Leighton Meester's new love interest, when the show returns. I saw The Nanny Diaries (albeit on a plane) and don't remember him -- maybe he played one of Chris Evans's dicky friends?
And of course this:
The latest news is that Amy Poehler will be starring in the spin-off of The Office, which is scheduled to premiere after the 2009 Super Bowl. That's all I know.
Except don't call it a spin-off: it's just Greg Daniels's new show, which probably won't be a spin-off of The Office at all.
I wonder how long I can go, using Arrested Development quotes for titles. Anywho . . .
Tricia Helfer has landed a job on something that sounds awesome. Here's the story:

(Note also her great hair.) We love Shaun Cassidy as a television producer -- even more than we love him as a Teen Idol of Yesterday.
Will the CW make it through next season?

This is pretty sad. Not that I have much affection for the C-Wub -- I like Gossip Girl and I'm looking forward to 90210, but this is the network that inexplicably canceled Everwood to make room for a re-animated 7th Heaven. On the other hand, remember the WB? It's sad to think of its botched offspring limping to the finish line, only three years old.
Holy crap. This looks really good:
I don't think I can wait for mid-season.
Thank God! Someone listened to me bemoaning the conflict between Ugly Betty and 30 Rock, and moved the latter, to 9:30 on Thursdays, effective this week. (Also, I think that the MILF Island running gag blew NBC's "8:00 is the family hour" premise.)
