After nearly a year in gestation, a TV follow-up to the indie Thank You for Smoking will call USA Network home, says Variety. The TV adaptation, which likely will light up under a different title, picks up where the film left off, with spin doctor Nick Naylor (played on film by Aaron Eckhart) using his mad skillz to benefit those more deserving of aid.

Who is your pick to fill Aaron Eckhart's shoes on the tube? And will Tom Cruise mess with this version, too?

How about Eckhart doppleganger Thomas Jane.

His film career isn't anything to write home about (could give him a good boost) and he did do guest spots on Medium with his babymama. And USA and NBC are in the same family.

It's Nick Naylor, not Nick Taylor.

it was written as Naylor. However, skills is with an s, not a z....maybe it was written as such because of the word "mad" in front of it, but sorry- don't find it to be professional.
