day 86

a housewife moves of wisteria lane

remember last season when nicollette sheridan's character edie left desperate housewive's wisteria lane, not to return for "five years" (which was the time jump).  well it looks like edie will be moving off the street for good.  she'll actually be moving off the earth for good. nicollette's reps and abc have both confirmed that the villainous character is leaving the show.  but how is it going to happen?  it looks like edie will unwrap a scheme her husband dave has to kill her (why? we don't know...it probably has something to do with his first wife) and be caught in dave's deadly grasp.  but she won't be dying at the hands of the blonde bastard.  edie will run away and have some sort of accident including her car and some wires.  the script is just being released for table reads amongst the class so details are still shady.  how do fans feel about the exit? e!'s ted casablanca recently ran a poll about who the audience would like to see offed and their pick was teri hatcher's susan.  hmm.  well with edie leaving, the street is going to need a new head bitch to stir up some drama.  too bad she's leaving just as she and eva longoria parker's gabby are becoming friendly.  in other abc departures news, brothers and sisters' bathalzar getty has officially been written out of the show.  amidst reports that he was difficult on set and has been a tabloi staple thanks to his affair with sienna miller, producers decided to eliminate the actor from their list.  it seems there are a lot of cast changes coming to the alphabet net, with these two departures adding onto the possible absences of katherine heigl and tr knight next season on grey's anatomy.  

weirdest couple engaged 

hollywood is about to have a very odd family to add to the mix.  former pop star - turned actress - turned folky rocker mandy more and altrocker ryan adams are engaged.  the duo have been dating on and off since 2007, with mandy having very publicized relationships with actor zack braff and dj am mixed in there, too.  and this isn't just rumor - mandy's camp has confirmed to multiple news outlets that the musical pair will be tying the know sometime in the near future.  the couple has had one breakup, caused (allegedly) by moore's rising stardom.  i guess because her career has begun to fizzle ryan doesn't feel as overshadowed?  i don't know.  i would really like to see mandy reunite with dj am, which they did post-am's plane crash last fall, but that flame burnt out again in december.  news that ryan and mandy were back together just broke last week, so the engagement seems quite sudden.  mandy is currently in the studio working on a "southern california" style record entitled amanda leigh, moore's given name, which should hit the internet and store shelves in may.  

that's all for today.  no new news about chris brown has broken, other than he's supposedly hiding out in las vegas.
