Pilot Talk: Desperate Housewife Is Virgin's Ma
The latest fall-pilot developments, as recapped by our pals at Variety:
• Laurie Metcalf has joined the cast of Lifetime's The Virgin of Akron, Ohio, playing the mother of the title character, a young model who returns to her hometown and, after surviving a car crash, is believed to have been sent by God. I'm sorry, a model who's a virgin? Aren't we already having trouble believing Adriana Lima?
• ABC has picked up See Jayne Run, a comedy about a woman juggling motherhood and a career, and a sudser set in D.C. Also, it's now "official": ABC has cast Jordana Brewster as Jane in its Mr. & Mrs. Smith series — but TVGuide.com told you that yesterday.
• Fox has picked up The Beast, about a veterinarian who can't stand animals, and a comedy about four post-college single women.

Do we really need another show called The Beast? Who else remembers the one from 2001 with Naveen Andrews (from Lost), Elizabeth Mitchell (from Lost), April Grace (from Lost), and Harriet Sansom Harris (from Lo--er, Desperate Housewives)?
