... between the lines. How come? They've been canned -- they just don't know it yet! Yep, it seems an original cast member of a hit series that's popular with Ausholes (and yours truly) has been pink-slipped without the benefit of being given a pink slip.

In Michael Ausiello’s latest blind item , he teased that, “If a certain TV star is reading this, they should squint extra hard to read between the lines. How come? They’ve been canned — they just don’t know it yet!” Now aside from the fact that Ausiello’s blind items are the Hollywood equivalent of cruel and unusual punishment, what with leaving us dying to know what he does, we can’t help thinking that given the sad state of the economy, this isn’t the most ideal time to be an out-of-work actor.
