Ausiello Scoop: Cold Case Taps Bobby Cannavale - Ausiello Report

Bobby Cannavale by Maury Phillips/WireImage.com

Here's one fewer Cold Case for Lilly Rush to solve: I have confirmed the identity of her next sexual conquest, and it's Emmy winner Bobby Cannavale.

Sources tell me exclusively that the graduate of Third Watch and Will & Grace has been cast as a recurring love interest for Kathryn Morris' single homicide detective. His character answers to the name of Eddie Saccardo and first appears in this season's final batch of episodes.

Has anyone noticed how SCARY skinny Kathryn Morris is this season??? She was always very thin but now, yikes, I find it uncomfortable to even look at her....

Thanks for the scoop, Mike.

Now we just need to get Nia Long, Molly Price, and Jason Wiles some quality full-time work so they'll have some credit at the Third Watch reunion. Seriously though, Long, Price and Wiles are all talented and I'd like to see them in regular roles on decent shows again (Big Shots and Bionic Woman don't count).

fcadena... Don't worry. You're not the only one who has noticed how scarily skinny Kathryn Morris has become. Yikes!

Off topic, but Dr. Cox himself said in an interview that the show is going to ABC. http://www.nationalledger.com/artman/publish/article_272619342.shtml

This is great news. I've really enjoyed Bobby Cannavale popping up on some of my favorite shows - the three Law & Orders, for example. Now he's doing an arc on Cold Case as a love interest for one of my favorite characters on TV. I hope they let Lily Rush have a little bit of happiness this year.

Morris looks alot skinnier, but her lips sure look fatter.

Thanks for the news. Cold Case is such a great show, but it doesn't get much attention. I hope this relationship lasts longer than the others, and this dude doesn't just bail on Lilly because of her issues.

Good News! I love Cold Case and B. Cannavale. Cold Case does not get a lot of attention and when it does it is to point out how skinny K. Morris is.

Dang. She's the only one on the show that I don't like. But I do like Bobby C.

Bobby is a terrific actor. I saw him on Broadway last year (cant remember the plays name) with F.Murray Abraham and he brings such a presence to the cast. Maybe I'll finally watch the show when he appears. The star of the show I find tasteless and if she is too skinny then she's probably messed up in the head.

Cold Case needs a boost. I enjoy the show but sometimes it jumps around alot. And mybe Bobby will heat things up. Lets hope becouse I know it was on the bubble before the writers strike.

Everytime I see Bobby Cannavale, I fall in love with him. He's simply gorgeous and that deep voice of his is delicious. I'm glad to see that he will be on Cold Case. Just saw him on tonight's episode and he was hot as usual. A great actor and I'm glad that he's on one of my favorite shows. Plus, Kathryn Morris does look thinner than she already was.
