Also, congrats to Scott Bakula. In addition to appearing in the last few episodes of Desperate Housewives, it’s now confirmed that he’ll star in the NBC multi-camera pilot, Table for Three. The former Star Trek: Enterprise lead will play Robert, a dentist engaged to a woman, Holly (Nicky Whelan), who is the same age as his daughter, Pen (Christine Woods). The dilemma? Holly was the “mean girl” to Pen back in their high-school days.
