Patrick Dempsey Didn't Work Out - The speculation on TVGuide.com is that Will Truman's significant other will be played by a well-known star who may have fallen off the A-(and B-)list. While the prospects proposed by TV Guide leave a lot of be desired, I think that one of their nominees is actually dead on: Scott Baio. First of all, he's the right age. We know that he's experienced with the sitcom format. He's pretty recognizable and he was regarded as hot, in his day. Finally, after dating Pamela Anderson, playing gay could only help his reputation.

By the way, last week's episode, I was quite pleased to see Will finally hooking up, with the little cutie played by Jason Mardsen. Yes, he may be younger than Will and he's definitely significantly shorter than Will, but I'm glad to see that didn't necessarily mean that Will overlooked him entirely (like the video store assistant manager from last season).
