Kykle MacLachlan wants Desperate Housewives return
The Twin Peaks star, who starred in a third series to that classic 1990s show in 2017, has said he is open to appearing in a reboot of creator Marc Cherry's comedy-drama, which ran for eight seasons on ABC from 2004 to 2012.
"That'd be fun," MacLachlan told People. "I mean, Wisteria Lane still exists on the Universal back lot. It's part of the tour!"
MacLachlan debuted as Bree's (Marcia Cross) love interest and eventual second husband Orson toward the end of Season 2 in 2006, becoming a key character in Season 3 as it delved into the mystery of his first wife's disappearance.
An offshoot Desperate Housewives revival series, titled Wisteria Lane, is reportedly in development at Disney, with Kerry Washington involved. MacLahlan said he'd love to appear in the show if asked.
"If for Desperate Housewives, if that were to come back - and if they would even want me to come back - I'd have to look at the role and kind of get a sense of what they're thinking about for the character," he added
"So I would approach it like if it were something completely new and weigh how I feel about the role, and the character, and the process and everything, you know? I would treat it like it were, you know, something else that had come to me and make my judgment on that."

Alex Cooper Savagely Booed At Wrigley Field For Desecrating Long Tradition
Alex Cooper has millions of fans of her 'Call Her Daddy' podcast ― and it sounded like none of them were at Chicago's Wrigley Field on Sunday when she performed 'Take Me Out To The Ballgame.' She was booed. Lustily. Savagely. Brutally. Pick your adverb. It was bad. 'You've never seen something like this before,' Cooper said. And she might have been right. Click to watch it right here. It probably didn't help that at first she appeared to attempt a bad impression of late and beloved Chicago Cubs announcer Harry Caray, who was famous for leading the Wrigley faithful in the 'Take Me Out' chant during the seventh inning stretch. Cooper's sorta backup dancers and giggle-pocked delivery were perhaps errors as well. Hey, at least she has more subject matter for her next show. And her heavily despised take didn't hurt the home team's performance. The Cubs beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 11-0. Please note the ESPN-televised version, which you can watch below, isn't as boo-heavy because the sound is focused on her singing. If that's what you want to call it.

Cierra Ortega exits 'Love Island USA' villa following backlash over resurfaced racial slur posts
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Cierra Ortega, a contestant of this summer's 'Love Island USA' left the villa just a week before the finale of the hit reality series is set to air on Peacock. Her departure, announced Sunday, followed weeks of uproar from viewers after old posts from Ortega resurfaced that contained a racial slur against Asian people. The show's narrator, Iain Stirling, announced Ortega had departed 'due to a personal situation' early in Sunday's episode. Ortega becomes the second contestant this season to depart the show amid controversy due to past social media posts. Yulissa Escobar abruptly exited last month in the second episode after clips of her using racist language resurfaced online. Her departure was also not explained in the show. A spokesperson for the show declined to comment Monday. Ortega's family posted to her Instagram story Sunday evening following the announcement of her departure, asking the public 'for compassion. For patience. For basic human decency. 'While Cierra is not in the villa anymore, she is still away. She hasn't had the chance to process any of this or speak for herself,' her family wrote. 'But we know our daughter. We know her heart. And when she returns, we believe she'll face this with honesty, growth, and grace.' Her family said they, along with Ortega's friends and online supporters, have received threats, attacks and cruel messages on social media, noting that 'no one deserve that kind of hate, no matter what mistakes they've made.' 'Love Island USA' is an American spin-off of the original U.K. series and is airing its seventh season. The show airs daily except Wednesdays and brings young singles together in a remote villa in Fiji to explore connections with the ultimate goal of finding love. Couples undergo challenges and are encouraged test their romantic connections as new contestants are introduced. Islanders are routinely 'dumped' from the villa throughout the series as stronger couples form. The winning couple receives $100,000. The show, which strips contestants of their phones or access to the outside world, has previously asked fans to avoid cyberbullying contestants. Host Ariana Madix called for fans to stop doxxing and harassing the show's stars in a recent interview with The Associated Press. Ortega entered the villa at the end of the first episode as a bombshell, one of the first in a steady stream of new contestants who come in after the show began, often expected to disrupt existing couples and create new relationship dynamics. Ortega quickly coupled up with Nic Vansteenberghe, whom she remained with up until her departure. Her exit broke up one of the few consistent couples of the season. The couple had just announced a few episodes prior they were 'closed off,' a popular 'Love Island' phrase to indicate neither contestant was interested in exploring a connection with any other islander. 'Before Cierra had left, my mind was clear. I knew what the future would look like, and now, I'm lost,' Vansteenberghe said during Sunday's episode. Vansteenberghe stayed on the show as a single islander after Ortega left, and he ultimately re-coupled with fellow contestant Olandria Carthen before the end of the episode. Belle-A Walker, a contestant who was dumped earlier this season, took to Instagram to express heartbreak over Ortega's resurfaced posts. Walker, who is Asian American, said she is 'deeply appreciative' of the show's producers 'for taking a stand and making it clear that racism of any kind is not tolerated.' 'Asian hate is oftentimes overlooked and dismissed. But being a first-generation American, I have personally witnessed and experienced how real and hurtful comments like these are,' Walker wrote on her Instagram story page. 'It is my hope that this situation can help shed light on how big of an issue anti-Asian hate really is.'
