Week 4 of “Dancing With the Stars” started off without an injury report! [1]

Safety Dance: After an alleged stalker of Olympic gymnast Shawn Johnson was discovered and arrested outside of the Dancing with the Stars studio last week, it was evident security was heightened and tightened. [2]

In a “DWTS” twist, Steve-O and Steve Wozniak — the judges’ least favorite stars this week — were declared safe early on. [3]

Here’s your chance to help design a very special Dancing with the Stars performance — from the type of dance to selecting the actual dancers and costumes! [4]

This week’s “Dancing” duos with the lowest combined totals — Denise Richards and Maksim Chmerkovskiy, and Holly Madison and Dmitry Chaplin — competed against each other in a dance-off on Tuesday night, with the losing team going home! [3]

DAVID ALAN GRIER — Grier is often recognized for his work in television and film - in TV he is known from roles in In Living Color, Life with Bonnie with Bonnie Hunt, DAG, and most recently, Chocolate News for Comedy Central. [...] The Go-Gos’ 1981 multi-platinum hit debut, “Beauty and the Beat,” spawned mega hits “Our Lips Are Sealed” and “We Got the Beat” and made the Go-Go’s the first all-female band (who wrote their own music and played their own instruments) to achieve a #1 album. [5]

Tom Bergeron and Samantha Harris welcome a new series of teams, each made up of a celebrity and a professional dance partner, with performances to be evaluated by returning judges Len Goodman, Carrie Ann Inaba and Bruno Tonioli. [1]

Since then, Steve-O tweaked his back, Steve Wozniak fractured his foot, Gilles Marini has tendonitis in his shoulder and Holly Madison suffered pain in her side. [2]

… a show that doesn’t talk down to the audience, and ABC blows the chance for a hit by cancelling it. [...] I loved Jeremy Piven as Trevor Hale, and Jeffrey D. Sams as his skeptical roommate. [1]

Against my better judgment of the ludicrous premise that is at the heart of “Cupid,” I was smitten as if the diapered god himself had shot me through the heart. [1]

As one of an insufficiently large number of fans of Rob Thomas romantic dramedy “Cupid,” which starred Jeremy Piven and Paula Marshall and aired only 14 episodes before being canceled by ABC in 1999, I greeted with mixed feelings the news of its retooled return. [2]

This basically means that “Cupid” will die a critically acclaimed death sometime in the next few months after the ABC execs jerk the show around as they have done with “My So-Called Life” and “Relativity,” to name a few. [1]

As part of a previously announced development deal, ABC has now asked Thomas to develop a new version of Cupid. [3]

In October 2007, with the possibility of a writers strike looming, ABC announced plans to remake the series. [4]

ABC had been kicking around ideas with Rob Thomas, the original series creator who had gone on to other projects like “Veronica Mars.” [5]

As fate would have it, Cupid, sometimes known as Trevor Hale, is under the care of famous psychologist and self-help author Dr. Claire Allen. [6]

Three months later, Trevor is found to be harmless to himself and others and is released — but under certain conditions. [7]

Cupid is a 1998-1999 American comedy-drama series created by Rob Thomas, which featured Paula Marshall as Dr. Claire Allen, a Chicago psychologist who is given charge of a man named Trevor Hale (Jeremy Piven). [8]

Trevor Pierce is a larger than life character who insists that he is Cupid, the Roman god of love. [7]

In March of 2008, the network gave a greenlight for a pilot and in August ordered 13 episodes. [4]

Placed under the care of psychiatrist and self-help author Dr. Claire McCrae, he must attend her singles group therapy sessions on a regular basis so that she can monitor his progress. [7]

Claire does not take well to being upstaged at her own group but is ultimately unable to give Cupid the boot, perhaps because she sees him as the basis for her next book, “The Search for Cupid.” [1]

Only 16 episodes of the 1998 series were created before the show and stars Jeremy Piven, Paula Marshall, and Jeffrey D. Sams were pink-slipped. [4]

Even though Claire disagrees with Trevor’s methods, she can’t argue with the sentiment, since she too is dedicated to helping lonely hearts find their soul mates. [6]

Cupid is a 1998-1999 American comedy-drama series created by Rob Thomas, which featured Paula Marshall as Dr. Claire Allen, a Chicago psychologist who is given charge of a man named Trevor Hale (Jeremy Piven). [3]

[...] Whether by fate or other circumstances, Trevor Pierce (Bobby Cannavale; character was originally Trevor Hale, played by Jeremy Piven) is under the care of psychiatrist and self-help author Dr. Claire McCrae (Sarah Paulson; character was originally Claire Allen), whose own work is often based in romantic relationships.
