day 2.105

what else? casting news
two big tv names may be making big career moves. neil patrick harris of how i met your mother and every awards show has landed the lead role in the life action/animation hybrid adaptation of the smurfs. nph will play the "lead live action character." meaning, i don't think he'll be playing a smurf. i'm guessing he'll be a human who helps the smurfs escape from the creeptastic gargamel. wow, i watched too much smurfs as a child (ok, not really - i googled that). but don't worry, the movie won't take nph away from himym. the actor will film the movie beginning in april, when mother is on hiatus, then return to the series next fall. the other big casting news is that desperate housewives may be losing yet another star - to the same network! dana delany, who plays reformed crackpot katherine, is in talks to headline abc's new drama body of evidence. the show is a big budget medical drama centered around a female medical investigator. wait, wasn't this show called crossing jordan on nbc like 5 years ago? delany is said to be making her decision this week on whether or not to film the pilot. if the pilot gets a pick up, it'll be bye bye to katherine. luckily, she'll probably be able to make it back to wisteria lane to film at least one episode next season to wrap things up.
