According to TV Guide, her recurring character, Kelly McPhee, will battle cancer. In 2009, Tierney came forward to announce that she was treating her own breast cancer. As a result, she dropped out of the NBC drama, Parenthood. Lauren Graham then took over her role.

With Mays gone, it would seem natural that the show would shut down production. However, the show (and pitches) apparently must go on. Original pitchman Anthony Sullivan is still selling. Of course, the show is titled Pitchmen. This season, to fill the Mays void, Discovery brought in, well... Billy Mays. It's actually Billy Mays III.

Take a look below, and don't expect anything about The Simpsons.

The network has just announced the next 16 chefs that will be competing for a head chef position at LA Market, which is located at the JW Marriott Hotel Los Angeles. That winner will also get the opportunity to pimp out Rosemount Estate Wines. Here are the contestants:

The network says (via The TV Junkie) that the show just scored an Emmy for the late-night show's contribution to the web, taking home the prize for Outstanding Creative Achievement in Interactive Media - Nonfiction.

How long until Chandler, Joey and Ross stop by?

Fox just announced a few of the episodes we can expect, and have attached many famous names.

An episode titled "Elementary School Musical" will feature Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie of Flight of the Conchords as artsy camp counselors to Lisa, as well as Lea Michele, Cory Monteith and Amber Riley from Fox's own Glee.

The 21st annual "Treehouse of Horror XXI" will include the voices of House star Hugh Laurie, as well as Harry Potter himself, Daniel Radcliffe.

Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg, baseball legend Mike Scioscia, and sports writer Bill James will all appear in "MoneyBart." Mad Men star Jon Hamm will play an an FBI supervisor in "Donnie Fatso." Martha Stewart will pop up in "The Fight Before Christmas," which also includes live-action puppets.

Other voices you can expect to hear include Kristen Wiig, Paul Rudd, Rachel Weisz, Alyson Hannigan, Danica Patrick, Cheech & Chong, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

The 22nd season of The Simpsons premieres Sunday, September 26 on Fox.

Howard will play a deputy district attorney and share screentime with Alfred Molina, who was also recently added to the cast.

"I feel like manager of the 1961 Yankees. I have my Mantle and Maris," said creator Dick Wolf.

Howard was nominated for an Oscar for his work in Hustle & Flow. Recently, he lent his voice to the animated Disney movie The Princess and the Frog. According to IMDB, Howard has five additional movies coming out sometime within the next year.

Aside from Howard and Molina, the cast is rounding out nicely. Skeet Ulrich was the first to sign on. Corey Stoll (Salt) will join the cast as well.

Law & Order: Los Angeles premieres September 29, 2010. After that, the drama will air every Wednesday at 10:00 p.m. (EST) on NBC.

Don't worry, dawg. The show is coming back. It's still a massive cash cow. So instead of scrapping the whole thing, it sounds like Fox is planning to fill those empty slots with some very famous faces.

According to TMZ, the show will go back to its three-judge format, with Jennifer Lopez and Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler rounding out the panel.

Are we excited? Have other butts you'd rather see in those seats? Fox has yet to confirm the additions, so sound off with your selections below.

American Idol is scheduled to return in January 2011 on Fox.

The satellite provider just announced plans to acquire the acclaimed drama Damages. After three seasons on FX, the cable net had Glenn Close's show on its chopping block. Instead, DirecTV came in to swoop it up. Thanks fellas!

Of course, Close will return, as well as Rose Byrne. Other major characters are also expected to come back, although no official announcements have been made.

DirecTV also gets the rights to all of the show's previous seasons. It's unclear when those will air, but we're guessing you'll have a chance to catch up before DirecTV starts producing new episodes of Damages early next year.

The latest two "celebs" to sign up for VH1's fourth installment of Celebrity Rehab are Rachel Uchitel and Jeremy London. Apparently, the show goes for A listers -- of tabloids, anyway.

Uchitel is best known as Tiger Woods Mistress #1. Although she supposedly received a huge payout from the golfer, that doesn't include much screen time. So, according to PopEater.com, the 35-year-old party planner will be treated for some type of pill addiction.

London is probably best known for his acting. (No, really!) His roles include Kevin Smith's Mallrats and the TV show Party of Five. However, lately he's been linked to an alleged kidnapping (his own) as well as problems with drug use.

Other famous faces that have signed on for a very public recovery include model Janice Dickinson, former teen idol Leif Garrett, Jason Wahler from The Hills, reality star Frankie Lons, and richie rich Jason "Gummi Bear" Davis.

According to Warner Bros. (via TVShowsOnDVD.com), Men of a Certain Age: The Complete First Season will hit retail shelves on November 2, 2010.

The 2-disc set will include all of the episodes from season one, as well as commentary by the show's three leads and co-creator Mike Royce. Other features include behind-the-scenes footage, deleted scenes, and an extended version of the season finale. Expect the set to retail for $39.98.

Men of a Certain Age will kick off its second season on November 29 on TNT.

TV Guide says that comedian David Cross will re-join forces with his former Arrested Development co-star Will Arnett on the upcoming Fox sitcom Running Wilde. It's Gobias, part deux!

Cross will appear in seven of the show's first 13 episodes, which includes the pilot. He will play the fiancé of Arnett's love interest, Keri Russell.

Running Wilde premieres September 21 at 9:30 p.m. (EST) on Fox.

According to TVGuide.com, Cusack will appear as the mother of a missing girl. It sounds sort of like a one-shot deal. Isn't this woman deserving of her own TNT or FX show by now?

There's no word on when Cusack's episode will appear. Aside from the Toy Story franchise, the actress is lending her voice to the upcoming Hoodwinked Too! Hood VS. Evil. She is also currently working on the flick Mars Needs Moms!

Brian Austin Green, who is probably best known for his role on 90210, will soon show up on ABC's Desperate Housewives.

According to Reuters, Green will play a contractor and potential love interest for one of the Housewives. Expect him to stick around for at least a few episodes.

Green recently made headlines for his marriage to actress Megan Fox. Before that, he had a short stint on Smallville and was a regular on the now-cancelled Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.

Don't expect Green to be the only one injecting new life into the ABC series. It was reported earlier that Vanessa Williams (Ugly Betty) would also show up this fall.

Desperate Housewives will kick off its seventh season on September 26 on ABC.

That said, I am finding it harder to watch the show's sixth season. Apparently, I am alone.

As many of you know, this season chronicles the end of the road for late Captain Phil Harris. The good captain died in February 2010, after complications from a stroke. Discovery has been press-releasing the crap out of this season, saying that the show is consistently number one in its timeslot.

Most recently, the network says that the July 6th episode, "Cain and Abel," scored the show's highest ratings to date, with an average of 5.26 million viewers.

That's a lot of people watching a lot of misery. I've watched a few minutes and part of me hopes Captain Phil will be ok in the end, because you know, it is TV. Sadly, we all know that won't be the case.

Are you watching this season? If so, you can catch new episodes of Deadliest Catch every Tuesday at 9:00 p.m. (EST) on Discovery Channel.

NBC has locked down Skeet Ulrich for one of the leads. The Scream actor just spent a little time on CSI: NY, and must have impressed a few people. He also has a bit of a TV history, starring on the cancelled cult favorite, Jericho.

According to Entertainment Weekly, Ulrich will play the role of ex-Marine Rex Winters. Five additional roles still need to be cast.

Some were pleasant surprises...others not so much. I'm a bit sad about no Ed O'Neill, but the outpouring for the rest of the Modern Family cast is nice. Also, way to go Matthew Fox! Any of your favorites missing from this list?

See who will be shedding tears -- and for what reason -- when the 62nd Annual Emmy Awards air live on NBC on August 29, 2010.

That said, the wildly popular MTV series is coming back for a second season. However, Jersey has apparently had enough of them, so the crew is packing up and heading to Miami.

Check out the mayhem below. If you like what you see (really?), season 2 of Jersey Shore will premiere July 29 on MTV.
