From today's Hollywood Reporter:

Meanwhile, David Alan Basche has been cast as Wilbur Post in Fox's remake of the 1960s comedy "Mister Ed"; and Nathan Fillion in Fox's drama pilot "Hollywood Division."

In "Hollywood Division," about undercover cops at a Hollywood high school, Fillion will play a police detective; he replaces Matthew Settle who was originally cast in the role.

Fillion, best known for his role on the ABC comedy "Two Guys and a Girl," previously starred in Fox's short-lived drama "Firefly."

Why does it have to be on Fox????
This means I have to end my Fox Boycott! NO!

Still, Nathan is worth sucking it up and tuning in to Fox...but I don't have to like it.

And I'm going to have to change the channel at the commericals: having to watch an American Idol or some other reality show ad could lead to suicide.

Undercover cops at a high school?

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...................

"21 Jump Street" anyone?

I mean, I'm sure Nathan will be fine. . .but I bet Alan and Gina call him up FREQUENTLY for purposes of giggling at him.

I'm glad for Nathan, especially since his NBC pilot didn't pan out. He's too good an actor to fade away - but I guess I would say that about the entire Firefly crew as well. So, yay for him - and I hope the rest of them get some good opportunities too. Especially Ron Glass.

But I also had the "21 Jump Street" thought, before STATIC beat me to the punchline.

Well there is always VCR and/or TIVO, then you can skip the commercials outright, or at least fast forward them. But then you'd have icky FOX ads on your tape.
