Jay Manuel Dishes on New Series: "It's Not a Spinoff"

Three things you need to know right away about the CW's just-revealed new makeover show with Top Model's Jay Manuel and J. Alexander:

1. It is not a spinoff.
2. It is not a straight-up makeover show.
3. The original series is not going anywhere—and neither are the J's.

Also, the premise of the new pilot, called Operation Fabulous, is far more interesting than what you've read!

Thankfully, the one and only Mr. Jay himself just rang me up to clear up the misinformation, giving us preliminary details that aren't out there yet...

Brother Against Brother: Pick a Winchester

OK, I've gotten the feeling lately that even though the Winchester brothers would go to hell and back for each other, the fans of Supernatural may play favorites between the CW demon-hunting twosome.

So, since our previous fan debates have been so fascinating, we're going to open up the floor on the topic "Which Winchester do you love more, and why?"

Vote in the poll below, and then post your essays in favor of either Sammy or Dean in the comments. Sometime around Election Day (Nov. 4 here in the U.S.), we'll post the results of which Winchester won the poll. We'll also post the best essay in favor of the winner, and maybe even a couple of runner-up essays, if you fans wax particularly rhapsodic in favor of your choice.

Good luck and have fun!

A CW representative confirms this morning's report that Jason Priestley will be swinging by the 90210 set to direct the 18th episode of the season.

As you know, Priestley and the other male castmembers from the original series (Luke Perry, Ian Ziering, Brian Austin Green et al.) have been camera-shy about the spinoff so far, but apparently Jason's OK with the idea, so long as he is behind the camera.

All that said, it might be a long time before we actually see the product of Priestley's directorial efforts...
