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
popped up again this year in, of all things, 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.
