It's Official!

wenn5049588__opt.jpg

Jimmy Fallon is taking over for Conan O'Brien next year on Late Night, when the ginger-haired comedian replaces Jay Leno on The Tonight Show.

The Saturday Night Live alum should easily appeal to the college dudes that watch O'Brien, but…

Will he bring in new viewers????

Unlikely!

And, where does this all leave Carson Daly????

Donna Returns To The Hood

First, Jennie Garth was added to the cast, and now…

Tori Spelling is also reported to be joining the new 90210 spin-off on the CW.

That's cute and all. But, bring back Brenda!!!!!!

For reals. The show needs some Shannen Doherty - more than anyone else!

She Did It!

garth__opt1.jpg

We told you a few weeks ago about the buzz surrounding Jennie Garth's possible involvement in the new 90210 spin-off.

And, now, it's confirmed!

Kelly Taylor will be playing a guidance counselor at her old stomping grounds of West Beverly Hills High.

Unfortunately, she won't be on every episode. Garth is being billed as a "recurring" role.

They've gotta bring Brenda back, yo!

And, instead of Tori, they should totally add Candy Spelling to the cast!!!!

How hot would that be???

Candy can play the principle that's an old, evil bitch.

That role would be perfect for her!

Blaming Arnold

arnold.jpg

It's been u-g-l-y on the set of Ugly Betty since the suits announced on Tuesday that the show is moving its production to New York City.

And, according to reports, the 300 production people who are losing their jobs because of the move blame California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.

New York passed a host of new new tax credits to lure more showbiz productions — Ugly Betty took the bait and is headed their way.

Many argue that the Governator has not done much to save and/or grow California's showbiz production business.

Unfortunately, there are small business owners like dry cleaners, caterers, construction supply folk who will be financially crippled by Ugly Betty's move to NYC. These vendors have banded together to buy a one page ad in Variety, the entertainment industry's trade paper, on behalf of the soon-to-be unemployed folks as a show of support and to help call attention to changes that need to be made at the state level for their own sake.

Here's what the ad appearing in Variety will say:

To Whom it Should Concern
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, Members of the State Senate and State Assembly, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, the Los Angeles City Council, and the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors:

We are writing to you because we just lost our jobs. We are the 300 plus members of the crew of the television show Ugly Betty. We were informed this Tuesday that the production of our show is moving to New York primarily because of the 35% tax incentives being offered by the state of New York. Instead of making good wages and paying our fair share of California state income tax, we will all be collecting Unemployment Benefits. In addition, we will certainly be cutting our spending back to the bone, which will not only cut back our sales tax contributions substantially, but it could end up costing the jobs of the people who provide services and products to us. Not only are these crew positions being lost; all of our local vendors are losing our business.

Our production buys: lumber, paint, wallpaper, cabinets, other building materials, office products, fabric, art supplies, computer equipment, food, beverages, flowers, film, makeup & hair products, wigs, insurance, jewelry, clothing, etc.

Our production rents: lighting equipment, sound equipment, video playback equipment, heavy machinery, office equipment, backdrops, costumes, furniture, scenery, props, soundstages, offices, parking facilities, cars, trucks, storage facilities, computers, camera equipment, grip equipment, editing equipment, drafting equipment, cell phones, computers, toilets, dumpsters, live plants, production trailers, tools, hardware, artwork, walkie talkies, etc.

Our production also uses the services of: dry cleaners, printers, location companies, Special Effects companies, utilities, caterers, payroll services, restaurants, security, Post Production Services, Clearance Houses, etc.

When we shoot on locations around Los Angeles we pay for permits; we pay homeowners & businesses for the use of their property, we hire police and fire department personnel, we pay for facility engineers, etc.

So, while the loss of our individual positions may be insignificant, the loss of this production is staggering. Now multiply this by all the other productions going to New York, New Mexico, Illinois, Louisiana, North Carolina and other states with incentives, not to mention Canada, New Zealand, Australia, Eastern Europe, etc. and the cost to the California state economy is monumental. We implore you to do everything in your power to level the playing field and bring our jobs back to California by enacting meaningful incentives to keep film and television production in our state.

Sincerely yours
The Crew of Ugly Betty

Word!

We're sure Arnie will hear you loud and clear now!

She Wants Out

heigl.jpg

Time to check out of the hospital!

A source close to Katherine Heigl reveals that the actress wants out of her Grey's Anatomy contract.

The insider says, “She's working really long hours and is ready to move on.”

Heigl doesn't really 'need' Grey's anymore, right? She has proven that she's a movie star. Hiegl-fronted flicks Knocked Up and 27 Dresses were box office gold.

A movie industry expert is quoted as saying, “She’s a smart one. She saw what can happen with someone like Jennifer Aniston, who was crazy successful on TV, but can’t seem to carry a film, and she tested the waters early.”

Unfortunately, Heigl probably won't get what she wants says the source — she's locked in to her Grey's contract.

We assume they're right! ABC and its parent company, Disney, aren't the kind of people who'll let a cash cow walk away so easily!

Moooooooooo!!!!!! Milk her!

Not Going Away Any Time Soon

gossip-girl.jpg

Wow. The CW must be feeling confident that the show's ratings are gonna pick up this coming season!

According to reports, Gossip Girl is going to have an extra long season next year to make up for the episodes missed due to the writer's strike.

The CW is set to make a formal announcement about the extra long season (24 episodes!) at its big upfront event next week.

Additionally, Michelle Trachtenberg is expected to become a full-time cast member on GG!

Y'all can also expect to see Hamptons-based episodes of Gossip Girl.

Um…we will also get to see Fire Island through the eyes of Serena's little bro, Eric?

We better!

Tom Tanks

Bad news for Xenu!

America is over Scientology's most famous disciple.

PerezHilton.com has learned that the Oprah episode featuring Barbara Walters on Tuesday BEAT the Tom Cruise shows (part one aired last Friday, part two aired on Monday) in the ratings game.

The Babs episode scored a 5.0/13 rating and the two Tom episodes both scored a 4.1/11.

Is Paramount sure they want to make another Mission Impossible film?

Bad idea!
