HBO has "hung" its hopes on Hung, the new series starring Thomas Jane and co-staring Anne Heche. With its debut on Sunday night after True Blood–where Ashley Jones had a revealing scene–fans have a chance to decide for themselves whether or not Hung is as well-endowed as HBO is advertising it to be.
Anne Heche is returning to television on HBO's new comedy Hung, as the ex wife of Thomas Jane's character Ray. A high school basketball coach, Ray is down on his luck and only has one thing going for him. If you can't guess what that might be– from the title of the show–watch the trailer to find out what and how he plans to put it to good use.
Are you looking forward to Hung on HBO? Do you think it will be a success? Are Anne Heche, Thomas Jane or the show's premise enough to get you to tune in? A second trailer is after the jump. READ MORE

People is reporting that former Another World star Anne Heche is up a tree...er creek, now that her ABC show Men In Trees has been canceled. Heche told a judge that she can no longer pay the $15,000 a month in child support she was paying while starring in Men in Trees. This is what she wrote in cour papers.
I am continuing to look for work, but I have no offers pending and the impending strike by the Screen Actors Guild reduces my prospects for work even further...Since January 18, 2008, I have been unemployed and had no income from employment except for one very short-term contract for a movie role for which I received a total of $65,000, approximately the amount I received for one episode of Men In Trees."
Fun fact: Anne Heche is the all time favorite soap star of Daytime Confidential's Jamey.
You Tube is so addictive. After looking at clip after clip of the late great Beverlee McKinsey's work, I decided to look up another one of my favorite blonde P&G powerhouses, Anne Heche, whose ABC series Men In Trees has been canceled.
Heche was the second actress to portray Another World's wonder twins Vicky Hudson and Marley Love, and although I loved all three actresses who held the parts, Heche is by far my favorite. In fact as I mentioned in the earlier post, she is my favorite daytime actress, period. I went in mourning after she left the show in 91 and it took her replacement Jensen Buchanan a good year before she won me over and boy did she ever (Will someone get Jensen back to daytime already?) but Anne will always be "my" Vicky and Marley.
