Quick TV Fix: 'Moonlight' News, Plus Dirt on 'Desperate,' 'Bones,' 'Dexter,' '90210' and More

As fervent Moonlight fans prepare the next round of attacks in their war against cancellation -- I'm told supporters have purchased full page ads in the Hollywood Reporter and Variety (scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday respectively) and will march outside Warner Brothers at 2 p.m. on Friday. Numbers are expected to be high as many are in town for the weekend's first annual Moonlight Convention at LAX's Westin Hotel -- the writers on series saved from cancellation continue to sketch together plans for their next season. Keep reading for the scoop I've gleaned so far on Desperate Housewives, Nip/Tuck, Bones, Gossip Girl, Dirty Sexy Money, Dexter, Prison Break and 90210...

Not-So-Desperate Husbands: Fans of Desperate Housewives, angered over Mike Delfino's apparent disappearance from Susan's five-years-in-the-future life, need not cry for James Denton. Though the actor has been heard saying that his agent is fielding offers, sources tell me we will no doubt see Delfino again next season. Still, Susan's new man, played by Vanished star Gale Harold, will stick around for quite some time and is expected to be a major part of season five's mystery.

Nip/Frak: As you may have already heard, Battlestar Galactica's Starbuck (Katee Sackhoff) has been cast as a new doc on Nip/Tuck. Her character, Teddy Lowe, is the lady anesthesiologist I first told you about last week, and she will indeed be a love interest for Sean. Truth be told, producers were looking for a sexy, dark Angelina Jolie-type to take the part, but after seeing Sackhoff, decided the blonde was plenty capable of playing this risk taker who will bring out McNamara's naughty side.

Lovely Bones: You know Angela's long-lost hot husband? The one she got hitched to five years ago on a drunken trip to Fiji? His gorgeous face will finally turn up this Fall. Yes, Birimbau, who is being described as beautiful, intelligent, accomplished and highly evolved, will be found. And that divorce Ms. Montenegro's been itching for might actually happen.

Gossip Gal: Though viewers said a satisfying "see ya" to Georgina Sparks on last night's Gossip Girl finale, executive producer Stephanie Savage tells me the door is open for Michelle Trachtenberg's return. We may still see that bizatch come back.

Dirty Sexy Mommy: Clare George, the woman who gave birth to Nick, but never wanted to be his caregiver, will show up in New York and set up shop next season. Sources tell me the handsome lady is in her 60s and has been living in Paris since she abandoned Nick three decades ago.

Prison Breaker: Though we last saw our boy Sucre behind bars, I'm told he'll be out and about in the season premiere.

Miami Metro Manning Up: Shooting on Dexter season three is just about to start, but first, producers must fill a few major new roles, including Joey Quinn, a likeable cop who's recently joined the PD, and Miguel Vega, an up-and-coming ADA. Vega's brother, Ruben, will also join the force. Other significant additions? Miguel's wife Isabel, a young Internal Affairs agent named Yuki Amado, and a sexy, strong African American musician named Anton who we should be seeing quite a bit of.

9021-Old Guy: Ian Ziering (better known to you and me as Steve Sanders) may have just signed a deal to produce and star in his own MySpace series, but that doesn't mean his ties to the old neighborhood have been severed. I saw the smiley guy this Saturday, surrounded by a bevy of beautiful young girls, at Bar Lubitsch in West Hollywood, where he told a friend of mine he'd be happy to appear on the CW's 90210 spin off. Any thoughts on his role? I say he shows up as a single dude still trying to score with Kelly Taylor...
