Crackhead's Still Got A Job
Filed under: TV News > Old People > Z List
Despite her recent arrest for drugs, it looks like Tatum O'Neal is returning to her role as Maggie on the FX series Rescue Me.
Do people actually watch that show???
At the time of her arrest earlier this month, O'Neal had already filmed two episodes for the fifth season of the show, which is expected to premiere in the spring of 2009.
Peter Tolan, the series co-creator says "We want to bring her back, and I haven't heard anything about why she wouldn't be available to us. It's a misdemeanor, so she's not going to do time, and nobody has said to us we can't insure her or anything like that. So I'm assuming she's available to us and it's 'business as usual.'"
Yea, unless she gets busted again for cocaine and taken to jail!
Tolan adds, "We've already started to do some stuff with her that hooks into the death [of one of the characters] and where that sends her."
Even if she returns, will U still watch?

r u kidding me that show is hilarios! and im not a big tv person!
Wow Perez, I'm a bit shocked you don't watch Rescue Me..
Tatum is a crackhead on the show too but has only recently been on the past few seasons…it's an awesome show and I suggest you rent some of the old seasons and then decide if you like..
I LOVE RESCUE ME. It's my favorite show. So yes, people do watch it, Perez.
Dear Perez, you fucking moron!
Rescue Me is one of the best written shows of all time. What do you prefer, Two and a Half Men?
How you are so successful is beyond me you shameless flaming chub.
fuckin' illiterate morons like you probably don't watch anything well written or read a book for that matter. you're an asswipe perez hilton. it's not going to be very pretty one day when you wake up and realize what a low life you are. trainwreck blowhard, perez hilton.
I LOVE RESCUE ME!!! It is honestly one of the best shows on TV. For real!
Anyone who doesn't watch it, SHOULD!
Rescue Me is one of the best shows on TV, start watching it Perez!!! Tatum is great on the show and Dennis Leary rules!!!
Rescue me is a great show. Denis Leary is hawt!
Rescue Me is an awesome show..
Lot's of hot guys with their shirts off…
thats one of the best shows on TV! Now that the Sopranos are over and Entourage isnt on again and Pushing Daisys is MIA…Im so glad that Rescue Me is back! Im suprised you dont…they have homo action and its kinda hot
Anything you DON'T watch (or speak negatively about), Perez, has to be good, so I'll definitely check it out.
That show is awesome! Try it you will like it!
Alot of people are very loyal to that show! Not suprised Perez doesn't watch. he wouldn't get it at all. It's about REAL men doing REAL WORK!! You should really stop calling her out as a crackhead. She fell and there's no shame in that. she's really trying to keep it together. I give her a lot of credit for being so candid about her addiction. Nobody ever said it was easy to be a recovering addict. Cut the woman a little slack fat ass!
"Rescue Me" is actually a really great show… However, her character is obnoxious 85% of the time, and her romantic involvement with one of the fire-fighters was always the part of the show I wanted to skip. It really is an awesome show though
You are missing out Perez. That show is great!
Rescue Me is a great show. Of course, an asshole like yourself would never know that. People with I.Q.s as low as yours stick to shows that don't require much brain activity.
Shutup you fat retard. It's a wonderful show…even though it's far-fetched, it pretty much sums up life as a public servant. Especially an Irish-Catholic one.
Rescue Me Rocks!!! Hot sex scenes Perez!! You are so missin out!!!
I fucking love Rescue Me. Maggie is a super intersting character, I'm glad she's coming back.
ummm hello! best show ever! OF COURSE WE'LL BE WATCHING!
I watch that show before she started and I'll watch it after she departs. It had a shitty season (I believe it was season 3) but last season the spark returned. This is the first I heard I have to wait till next year to see new episodes, boooo. I will satisfy my thirst for sex-ed up crazy plot FX shows with Nip/Tuck and It's Always Sunny in Philidephia until then. PS. If you don't want It's always sunny, get the 1st and 2nd season dvd. These characters are freaking stupidly funny. My favorite espisode is when Dee and Denis (rich kids) go on welfare. I cry from laughter everytime. I totally went off on a tangent but I LOVE "It's Always Sunny!" If that ever gets cancelled I will cry. That show is the cure for depression.
Of course they do.. well, I do anyway!
I've never been offended by anything Perez has said on his postings, but dissing Rescue Me! That show's soooo good! There are some hot firemen, it's funny, and dramatic, Dennis Leary's the shit! For those of you who watch the show, isn't Franco yummy! He's in my top five!
The show is amazing! And its crazy because she plays an alcoholic on the show..maybe the could write in coke addiction to her character. I'll watch it whether she is on it or not because Denis Leary is really good in it; he has been nominating with Keifer Sutherland for best Actor in a Drama Series.
Man, Rescue Me is the shit! one of the best show's on T.V. Tatum isn't too far off from her character on the show than in real life so who gives a fuck! Denis Leary dominates!!!!!
That show is great!!! Sooooo many hot guys
PEREZ I AM ASHAMED OF YOU! HOW CAN YOU NOT WATCH RESCUE ME? IT IS ONLY THE BEST TV SHOW OUT THERE. DENIS LEARY,DANIEL SUMJATA U DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE MISSING. PICK UP SEASON 1 I GUARENTEE YOU WILL BE HOOKED.
I LOVE that show & can't wait for it to start back up!! I'll watch it whether she's there or not. .. she doesn't make the show, so I could care less if she's there or not … but it's a great show!
I love you, Perez, but I hate when you're so quick to insult a show you've never watch. Rescue Me is an AMAZING show and it has a ton of viewers. Watch a few episodes, you'll be hooked.
Perez…
Listen Mr., plop yourself down in front of the tv and watch all the seasons of Rescue Me immediately. I know your busy as a rising media star and all…but this is worth it. I just want you to be educated before you dog the show.
As for Tatum being a mess…your spot on.
Much love.
I think YOU are a crackhead if you dont watch this FANTASTIC show! Denis Leary is a GOD! He should win an emmy every year. Tatum plays his sister on the show and she has some fun storylines. Its on F/X, best cable network ever!
Rescue me is a great show. You would love it!!
as tons of people have already said, Rescue Me is a freakin' GREAT show. you obviously haven't seen it or you would be endorsing it rather than making callous, uninformed comments about it. And while I may not like Tatum O'Neal much, I have to say she does a great job with her role. So do a little research and suck it, Perez.
Rescue Me is a kick ass show!!!!!!!!
I love that show!!
RESCUE ME IS THE SHIT!!! F**K YOU PEREZ
Rescue Me is a fucking awesome show!
For shame, Perez! Rescue Me is an amazing show - can't wait for the next season. Watch an episode before you cast judgement.
Tatum on the show, however, not so good.
Rescue Me is one of the funniest shows ever shown on tv!
I LOVE Rescue Me!!! Maggie is one of my favorite characters. Watch it Perez! You'll be hooked…
perez, i'm shocked at you. you would love it, full of hot guys! and gays!
Are you cracked? Rescue Me is amazing - of course I will watch and everyone else I know will too. You're losing some serious credibility dude. I love her character - why would that change?
Rescue Me is AWESOME!!!! I just heard it's not back until April 09 though. Writers' Strike hit hard; however, the season will have 22 episodes instead of 13.
The show is amazing! I cant wait for the new season!
PeReZZY!! Watch 'Rescue Me' - it is riDONKulous!
I WOULD SMOKE CRACK WITH HER ANY DAY IF SHE IS NAK AND GIVES A NICE BJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I WOULD SMOKE CRACK WITH HER ANY DAY IF SHE IS NAK AND GIVES A NICE BJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I WOULD SMOKE CRACK WITH HER ANY DAY IF SHE IS NAK AND GIVES A NICE BJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I WOULD SMOKE CRACK WITH HER ANY DAY IF SHE IS NAK AND GIVES A NICE BJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I WOULD SMOKE CRACK WITH HER ANY DAY IF SHE IS NAK AND GIVES A NICE BJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I WOULD SMOKE CRACK WITH HER ANY DAY IF SHE IS NAK AND GIVES A NICE BJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I WOULD SMOKE CRACK WITH HER ANY DAY IF SHE IS NAK AND GIVES A NICE BJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I WOULD SMOKE CRACK WITH HER ANY DAY IF SHE IS NAK AND GIVES A NICE BJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I WOULD SMOKE CRACK WITH HER ANY DAY IF SHE IS NAK AND GIVES A NICE BJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I WOULD SMOKE CRACK WITH HER ANY DAY IF SHE IS NAK AND GIVES A NICE BJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rescue Me is fabulous! Brilliant writing and the acting is great. HEART!!
Old People??? Doesn't look old to me. Looks very nice actually.
Rescue Me is fabulous. One of the few shows worth watching!
1. Yes people watch Rescue Me!!!
2. Yes people will STILL watch Rescue Me if she's back!!!
Perez,
At least TRY to act a litttle educated. The Hills is not for everyone, in fact it's for teenagers. Rescue Me is tough, great acting and fantastic scrip writing. Watch it once and you'll be hooked! The Hills is boring and contrived! Don't waste your space writing about it because we just don't care. Rescue Me is amazing, addictive and awesome!
"Do people actually watch that show???"
Seriously? It's a great show that is brilliantly written and well cast. You should check it out sometime.
And yes, I'll continue watching. If I stopped watching every show that stars someone with an addiction problem, I wouldn't have any shows to watch. Get off your high horse Perez.
i'm sorry perez, but just because you don't like or have never seen something doesn't mean it sucks.
rescue me is one of the best tv shows out there, and denis leary is fucking kick ass. i will watch, i don't care if tatum is on or not. the show rocks with or without her.
That is the best show on tv!! I am so looking forward for it to finally come back next spring!! What's not to love about this show? Hot guys fighting fires, plenty of drama, and a lot of messed up people, much like real life but more entertaining. Just the way I like my tv!
Actually, Perez, you should watch the show. There's lots of sex and quirky story lines that are well-written. I think you'd like it.
I love that show! It rocks! I also like Tatum. She is a good actress. Rescue Me is one of the best shows around. Denis Leary deserves an Emmy for his role! Sure nice of you to kick a gal when she's down Perez!
Yeah, Perez, it is an awesome show. It is so cutting edge, I am surprised it is not on HBO! You better rent the first season's to catch up. And Tatum is a mess in that show, not too far out of character.
Perez and all viewing this comment………..Rescue Me ROCKS! That show is awesome… My favorite…!!! I hate that we have to wait for summertime to see it. Denis Leary as Tommy Gavin is SWELTERING HOT!!! You have to take a looksie!
I love that show. It's one of my guilty pleasures, along with Gray's Anatomy, Project Runway, and PEREZ HILTON !! BTW, you're looking GREAT !
Rescue Me is awesome. I started watching it when my husband did. Wisen up Perez!
OMG - Rescue Me is THE BEST show on television right now. Denis Leary Rocks and Tatum does a good job playing his psycho addicted sister. Stop watching Gossip girl with the 14 yr old girls and watch a big boy show. You may just like it.
Haven't seen the first episode, and really don't care. At least she's fighting her addiction!! Some many just say Fuck It and snort smoke or whatever their lives away! So thumbs up for her keeping up the fight!!
Of course - it's one of the best shows on t.v.
Get with P!
of course will watch the show…it's one of the best shows on TV….and hey she screwed up , she took responsibility….don't always be such a hater
Rescue Me is one of the best written shows on T.V.- Denis Leary is great, and so are the other actors! June 24th starts with small ' mini shows' like 5 or 10 minutes to clue us in as to what is going to happen in the upcoming season or to tie it on..something along those lines…Full episodes start I think in February 09…(writer's strike!) If you don't watch the show, you should start!
perez that show rocks! And her character is a total wreck!
Hell yeah,I love rescue me!
Never watched, that guy gives me a migraine…lol
That whole O'Neal family is a freaking mess. Genetics or stupid parenting?
I am so glad so many agree. RESCUE ME is amazing. It is the one of the most realistic shows out there. It covers everything & there are some hot sex scenes. The men are gorgeous & it's truly an amazing show. YOUVE ALL GOTTA GET HOOKED!
Rescue Me is one of the best shows on the boob tube.
Rescue Me is by far the best show on TV!
Holy Crap! Rescue Me is my favorite show on TV! Mikey is so dumb, but so so hott!
Wow- can't believe you haven't watched Rescue Me, Perez. It's a great show!! Great writing and great cast!
Are you serious-have you ever watched that show? It's the best show on television since the Soprano's ended-and she is VERY good in it…
I love that show!! It is amazing!!!
I don't watch this show but I rally around Tatum's right to fight this addiction which I'm sure was brought on by her upbringing. "The sins of the father have visited the daughter". And yet, through all this she is still a beauty! She deserves support in her quest for sobriety just as Robert Downey Jr. did.
looks like shithead-Mario still has a "job" too
Perez, you need to get a life! Rescue me is a great show, and Tatum is great on the show.
Wow! After I posted my first comment I reviewed almost all the other comments. I am currently in the scant minority that have NOT seen this show and it looks like I have to remedy this pronto! I won't watch the shallow "Hills" folk (shout out to David Letterman) and I won't watch the tweeny "Gossip Girl" but I can get on board with some true wit and grit, plus I have always had a female closet crush on Leary.
Rescue Me is a phenomenal show! One of my absolute favorites! I am soooo sad to hear it won't be back till 2009?! WTF it always came on in around June or July? That damn writers strike probably screwed it all up! When it comes back Perez you MUST watch it! Better yet get the DVDs of previous seasons so you can see why it is so awesome!
BEST SHOW EVER WATCH IT
SO GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES, people still watch rescue me, at least my people do….its good tv!
rescue me is a fucking amazing show and tons of people watchit(obviously), plus i don't watch it for skanky tatum oneil( achem HACK) i watch it for dennis leary and the hot firefighters.. i'm surprised you haven't checked in to watch
For fuck sakes Perez. Rescue Me is one of the best shows around!! If you haven't watched it, then you should!
She looks a lot like Blake Lively in 20 years
Add another one to watching… I LOVE THAT SHOW!!!!!!!
ouch oerez my opinion of you as a critic just hit rock bottom. does anyone still whatch that show? you should be ashamed of yourself because you either pre judged the show without whatching or you just have HORRIBLE taste in tv.
rescue me is one of the best shows on all of television, it has amazing writers and actors and every single episode is entertaining. leave it to perez and wed still be whatching the OC season 12.
An amazingly witty show with excellent delivery. It's also filmed very well! TUNE IN. Tons of male hotness…
Watch the damn show before you run your mouth. Come on - it's the best show on television!!
Rescue Me is awesome - I could care less about her bit - I am so glad they are having another season it seems like 4 ever between each season - this show kicks ass
yes i will watch. she is hilarious on the show.
Yeah people watch, its one of the best show on tv, I suggest you rent the dvds!
perez - you're a douche! that show is awesome.
Perez….Rescue Me is one of the best shows on television. Check it out. Great writing…Denis Leary is amazing…all around great show.
I like Rescue Me too. There's a lot of talent on that show even though the last season was probably it's most disappointing. Perez: why do you just watch shit? Watch some quality acting!
you are a fucking moron perez, i finally disagree with you on something. people watch rescue me and its one of the best shows on tv.
perez, i highly recommend the show to you it is OUTSTANDING. serisouly some great action, sex scenes, conedy, and drama
For the 1st time I have to say that you Perez are an absolute 'tard. RM is probably the best show on TV. You've finally proven that you must get $$$ in order to say anything good about a show.
That is an amazing show!! sex, drugs, drinking, swearing… its almost as good as the perez site!
