Californication star David Duchovny and Tea Leoni have been spotted together more often this summer, including at Knicks games and on family outings like a trip to Malibu Beach, where they were recently photographed together. The couple, who separated after Duchovny went into rehab for sex addiction in October, have been amicable through the split.

“Their first priority through everything was staying close for their kids and making life as great as it can be for them,” a source told People. “They’ll always be a family.”

The way Duchovny’s handling the separation seems much more mature than how Hank Moody deals with his ex on Californication, but comments DD made recently seem to draw parallels between the actor and his character:

“There’s this heart in the show that he’s truly in love with this one woman and that he’s a good parent, in a really horrible way. These are paradoxes that I thought were mature,” he told the Los Angeles Times. “This was more adult, more articulate, less of a man-boy and more of a man. Comedy for grown-ups, starring a grown-up.”

After their Twitter bet culminated in a bikini-clad Rob DeFranco dancing down Hollywood Boulevard to Beyonce’s “All the Single Ladies,” Peter Facinelli sat down with Rob to debrief.

The Nurse Jackie star and bet winner chided his friend for almost hitting a spectator and gave him a good amount of grief for wearing Spanx under his suit. Here’s a video of the interview, conducted while the friends sat on an abandoned couch set out by the curb:

Peter Facinelli sure knows how to win a bet. Here’s the dance of shame footage the Nurse Jackie star posted after his buddy, the defeated Ron DeFranco, shook his booty down Hollywood Boulevard:

DeFranco had bet Facinelli that he couldn’t get to 500,000 Twitter followers in a week.

Facinelli trounced his friend, despite glitches in Twitter’s system, so Peter’s earned a few bragging rights.

Still, was the encore really necessary? That’s a lot of man meat shaking around. Just sayin’.

Andy Milder, aka Dean the sometimes mild-mannered and often high attorney on Weeds, recently picked the winner of his Twitter trivia contest.

The signed Weeds pilot script now belongs to Heather Fugeman, a Kentuckian whose Twitter handle is @bumblebee023.

ICYMI, here are the trivia questions Andy posted for the contest:

1.) What was the make and model of Dean’s motorcycle?

2.) Is my last name pronounced Mild-er (”more mild”) or Mill-der (rhymes with builder)?

He said the winner would be the 33rd person to answer the questions correctly, and it only took 20 minutes for Weeds buffs to make that happen.

Want the answers? They’re posted after the jump.

Peter Facinell’s Twitter bet with Rob DeFranco culminates one hour from now in the much ballyhooed bikini dance down Hollywood Boulevard.

Wanna see what Rob’s wearing for the show? Check out Peter’s video of the two shopping for the suit yesterday at Affliction on Melrose. (it’s NSFW, just so ya know). The Nurse Jackie star doesn’t gloat too much about winning the bet, but he’s clearly enjoying himself.

Stay tuned for the video of Rob’s booty dance to Beyonce’s “All the Single Ladies,” which Peter promises to post ASAP.

Sad news, friends. Though we long suspected it, the official word is now in: Brotherhood’s third season was its last on Showtime.

The brutal and gritty tale of the Caffee family’s adventures in Providence seemed to wrap up with Season 3, but the network today told E!’s Kristin Dos Santos that there will be no Season 4.

In September, Brotherhood star Ethan Embry hinted that the show was headed for cancellation.

“I’m kind of getting the feeling that they might end it this year and wrap up loose ends,” he said, “but if everyone starts realizing what a great show it is and starts watching, they’d probably squeeze a couple more out.”

Sadly, that’s not the case. But the DVD of Season 3 is expected to drop on Sept. 22.

Nurse Jackie  Season 1, episode 4

“School Nurse”

Air date: June 29, 2009 on Showtime

Tonight on Nurse Jackie we get a deeper look into Jackie’s addiction, in a subtle way:

• After a meeting with their daughter’s teacher, a school nurse and a school psychologist results in a recommendation for counseling and anti-depressant medication, Jackie curses the nurse for wanting to give Grace meds. She then urges Kevin to consider enrolling Grace in private school.
• Dr. O’Hara, never the most kid-friendly of women, must endure the emotional thanks of a boy whose twin brother she saves.
• Zoey, frustrated that she’s getting the “boring” cases, loses a patient for the first time and learns that caring for people is never easy.
• Jackie finds a new way to communicate with Eddie and keep their affair going.

Since this episode focuses so much on Ruby Jerins, the young actress who plays Grace, I thought y’all would appreciate these behind-the-scenes photos of director Steve Buscemi coaching her through her performance:

Need we say more? New episodes of Weeds and Nurse Jackie are on tap tonight!

Well, Showtime Fans, could you have guessed his sobriety wouldn’t last? Tudors star Jonathan Rhys Meyers has been back in the tabloids of late.

This time he’s in the hot seat for allegedly assaulting a waiter at a bar in the Paris airport.

Jonny Boy had recently claimed he’d cleaned up after a third try at rehab, but it looks like moderation isn’t his style.

He also was arrested in 2007 after a drunk and disorderly episode at the Dublin airport (deja vu, anyone?).

In Paris, he reportedly punched a waiter in the face after the bar staff stopped serving him drinks while he was waiting for a flight home.

“Everyone recognised him as the guy who plays Henry VIII,” a witness told Britain’s Daily Telegraph.

“He was insulting the police and saying he could buy himself out of any problems, even throwing money on the ground so as to prove how much he was worth,” the witness added.

JRM has been ordered to appear in court in September on charges of “willful violence, outrage, hitting and threatening death,“ according to news reports.

With several stints in rehab behind him (one of which he denied) and a number of playboy moments documented of late, it looks like the Tudors star is teetering on the brink of self-destruction.

What do you think? Is JRM’s alcoholism harming his career? Or can this Irish lad bounce back from just about anything, like his character in Match Point?
