"Desperate Housewives" has found its desperate house-husbands - and it's not David Beckham and Robbie Williams, as rumored (gee, who would have thought that was a lie?). The actual couple will be portrayed by Tuc Watkins and Kevin Rahm. Watkins, of "One Life to Live," will play Bob, a country boy seeking solace from the city; Rahm, of "Judging Amy," will play his partner, Lee.
Anjelica Huston will guest-star on "Medium" this season, appearing in six of the show's episodes. According to the Hollywood Reporter, she will play a character named Cynthia Keener, an investigator with an "unusual partnership" with Allison Dubois (Patricia Arquette).
"Heroes" is getting its second "Star Trek" guest star: Nichelle Nichols - aka Uhura - will play the grandmother of new hero Monica. George "Sulu" Takei played Hiro's father last season.
"The Today Show" has named its cohosts for when it expands to a fourth hour in September: Ann Curry, Natalie Morales and Hoda Kotb will host the show, while several guest hosts including Tiki Barber and Giada De Laurentiis will also chip in.
