Southland, the gritty new police drama from film producer Ann Biderman, puts the spotlight on the dark and grimy corners of Los Angeles as seen through the eyes of uniformed cops and plainclothes detectives.

Alicia Silverstone agreed to play
the lead role in an ABC comedy,
Pink Collar, which is about women's relationships in the workplace.
Silverstone was last on television during the short-lived
Miss Match on NBC in 2003, unless you count the
constant reruns of
Clueless on cable. Silverstone had seemed to drop off the face of the earth until she

Beauty Shop.
Further proof that
Joey won't be returning next fall,
Jennifer
Coolidge, who plays the agent on
Joey (and is wickedly funny), has been
cast in the FOX comedy pilot,
If You Lived Here, You'd be Home by Now. It's
about a bunch of people living in temporary housing in L.A. Let's hope it gets a new name.
