Today's Blind Items - Sex With A Co-Star

Most of the time if you are a guest star on a show and decide to sleep with the star of the show nothing is going to come of it. This time was different though. The star is just about A list. I think that he is probably A list because of his two very very long running hit television shows. Plus, he has A list name recognition. Plus he has this air of mystery about him that people think is fun. Anyway, he is also a bit of a player. OK, a lot of a player and he has been known to enjoy the women who come on to his show. He enjoys them a lot. A few years ago while our actor was married, one of the guests on his show was a woman who was probably C-/D+ at the time. She came on the show and, even though she is married to a D- list actor, she slept with our A lister. Somehow his wife found out, but the actress confronted the wife and denied it. Repeatedly. Said the A list actor was a perfect gentleman and a great actor and really sold it well. She sold it so well that the actor recommended her for a part which she ended up getting which is the lead on a very hit cable show and a level of fame that she has never had before.

  1. So wanted this to be Michael C Hall, but I don't think it quite fits.

  3. Sarah Hyland: Modern Family
    Guest starred: Law & Order SVU
    A list tv star: detective Munch

  4. I was thinking someone on Dexter pre-Julia Stiles, but I can't figure out who would fit.

  5. Christina Hendricks guest starred on Las Vegas (Tom Selleck) prior to Mad Men, but she married her D list actor husband after she got Mad Men

  6. Not Piper or Sarah since it says the actress was married to a D lister at the time.

  8. So I take it he is no longer married but was at the time he had affair.
    I can't think of any other cable shows besides True Blood where the lead is a woman. Most cable shows have women as supporting roles. Hmmm was Mary Louis Parker married or the actress from the C word?

    1. Claire Danes is the female star of a very hit cable show.

  9. Sorry meant to say Laura Linney from The Big C

    ReplyDelete
  10. Sounds like she is still married to the D lister.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Duchovny, although I have no idea who the now-famous co-star is/was.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I was feeling the Hendricks guess since her hubby is a C list actor but since I do not watch MM I was not sure if she is considered a lead role

    ReplyDelete
  13. Laura's not married. Plus she used to be mostly movie, not TV till recently.
    This is an interesting one. Feels like it should be really easy, but it's not, lol.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I think the actor is Kelsey Grammer I dont know who the girl is

    ReplyDelete
  15. Mary McCormack was on Law & Order Criminal Intent with Chris Noth. She's now the lead on In Plain Site.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Chris Noth. I considered Ted Danson, but he's definitely A list and how much of a player can someone who dated Whoopi Goldberg be?

    ReplyDelete
  17. I thought of David Boreanez. He is still married but otherwise seems to fit perfectly?

    ReplyDelete
  18. But Claire Danes had her own hit show before and Hugh Dancy is not D list

  20. Kelsey is a good guess. So is Selleck I guess with his new show. There can't be that many actors who have had TWO very, very long running hit TV shows. Frasier and Cheers definitely fit that.

    Mark Harmon?

  21. Am I the only one who thought Charlie Sheen? Nit sure about the rest of the blind though

    ReplyDelete
  22. Kept feeling John Stamos for this one.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I thought about Sheen but its 2 long running hit shows and the ive hes on now doesn't fit

    ReplyDelete
  24. Neither Sheen not Grammar have an "air of mystery" about them....

    ReplyDelete
  25. If I thought Don Johnson had any mystery to him he fits as well but I know better

    ReplyDelete
  26. John Stamos comes to mind for some reason....

    ReplyDelete
  27. Kristin, are you saying you liked Belzer TOO?! Or did my wording offend? I WAS in my 20's then...
    Anyway, that's what I would call an infatuation with a famous person, someone I would never possibly meet.

    Please let me know if I've misinterpreted your comment. I hope it was that you like him too....I LOVE skinny men, too too much.

    1. @libby I STILL think Belzer is good looking and mysterious. I love him.

      You did not offend :)

      Delete
  28. I am down with David Duchovny for this one.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Thank goodness, Kristin, I have endured many odd looks over my Belzer interest. Yummy.

  30. Mirelle Enos.

    Married Alan Ruck in Jan 2008.

    Was on CSI Miami in 2008.

    "A" lister: David Caruso (CSI Miami and NYPD Blue). Air of mystery is why he thought he was a better, more desirable actor than he was when he left NYPD Blue.

    ReplyDelete
  31. @libby no need to travel alone, good friend. We shall walk side by side on this road of life and mutual love for our surly detective.

    ReplyDelete
  32. i love that Mirelle Enos/Caruso guess

    ReplyDelete
  33. Chris Meloni was on OZ before SVU...

    ReplyDelete
  34. David Caruso/Mireille Enos doesn't work with the clue that he was married at the time of her guest starring episode.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Larry David and Vivica Fox

    ReplyDelete
  36. Jean Smart guest starred on a few episodes of Frasier. She is married to actor Richard Gilliland since 1987 according to Wiki. She went on to star in 24 and Harry's Law, and received Emmy nominations for both. She has been in a lot of things, so I'm not sure if it fits for her having a "level of fame that she has never had before".

  37. Longest running non-children's, non-news, non-talk show:

    Two and a Half Men

    Those are JUST shows that have at least ten years on them.

    Kelsey fits, not many others. Unless you think Becker was on for a long time and the actor is Danson,

    ReplyDelete
  38. Wait, this is David Boreanaz and Julie Benz and her ex John Kassir.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Does Julie Benz and Michael C Hall work?

    ReplyDelete
  40. Julie Benz doesnt quite work because 1) she wasnt a guest star on Dexter, she was a series regular 2) Defiance is not a very hit cable show..its middle of the road in rations 3) She was arguable MORE famous on Dexter than she is on Defiance.

    I think we are thinking in the right vein though.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Random thought:

    Actress: Rutina Wesley
    Married to a D- list actor

    Actor: Rob Morrow
    Two long running shows: Numbers and Northern Exposure (both 5 seasons)

    She guest starred on Numbers right before she landed the role on True Blood.

    ReplyDelete
  42. David Boreanaz doesn't work because he's still married. "A few years ago while our actor was still married" implies that he's no longer married.

    ReplyDelete
  43. I think this IS Michael C Hall, but the guest star is Jaimie Murray (aka Lila, Dexter's psychotic girlfriend). The show is Defiance on SyFy, and it is a huge "cult" hit- for her, this is definitely a big step up fame wise.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Ella Bee I love your take on MCH but didn't Entry have him as a one hot wonder but a few days ago (forgetting about "6 Feet Under").

    ReplyDelete
  45. Did duchovny and Leoni divorce?

    ReplyDelete
  46. Definitely not the big Noth unless Rutina Wesley and he crossed paths at some point, LOL.

    ReplyDelete
  47. The description of the A list actor fits Duchovny to a tee. Pretty sure it's him; is the show Californication? Who guested there a few years ago who is now a lead on a hit cable show?

    I believe Enty hinted in the past that Duchovny and Leoni have quietly divorced.

    ReplyDelete
  48. @Trudi- . Yes. I just totally picture this as him. And maybe thought backup Enty wrote the other one....since they forgot about SFU.

    ReplyDelete
  49. John Stamos (Full House & ER, known to be a player)
    Lady could be ANYone, so many guest stars on ER.
    Any guesses?

    ReplyDelete
  50. The woman on Justified who guest starred in Californication?

    ReplyDelete
  51. Michael C. Hall and Courtney Ford
