A List Of Things Thrown Five Minutes Ago

PLEASE, LET IT BE BETTER THAN THE WHOLE TEN YARDS: More casting news for the project formerly known as "Studio 7"--now apparently known as "Studio Sixty On The Sunset Strip."

• Amanda Peet will play Jordan McDeere (formerly known as Jamie), new network president and one of two major female leads (the other character is blatantly based on Kristin Chenoweth, who may well get the part).
• Evan Handler ("Sex And The City," "It's Like, You Know," and a "TWW" guest arc) and Carlos Jacott ("She Spies," the villain in the pilot of "Firefly") will apparently play secondary characters Ricky and Ron, a/k/a "Beavis and Hackboy," the widely disliked second-in-command of the show.
• Nate Corddry (occaisional "Daily Show" correspondent and brother of Rob) will apparently play Tom Jeter, the second of the "Studio 60" "big three" to be cast.

I have my doubts about Corddry, but this cast is shaping up very, very nicely so far.
