Morning Mix: Fox Reality Show Will Be 'Survivor' Meets 'The Office'

  • Fawcett's Son Still Battling Drug Demons.  Redmond O'Neal, the 24-year-old son of longtime partners Farrah Fawcett and Ryan O'Neal, was charged with drug possession yesterday, following an incident in which he took a friend to visit an inmate at at L.A. area jail -- with herion in his car.  Whoops.  This comes as Fawcett has been hospitalized after she traveled to Germany to receive some alternative cancer treatment, and immediately flew home afterward -- causing complications and a hematoma.

  • Hannah Montana Gets Thumbs Up.  The first reviews are in -- in addition to the grin we got from NEWSWEEK's Ramin Setoodeh after his screening, Variety gives the pic a solid endorsement and says that even dragged-along dads will find something to like about the film.  As they put it, "Even if you live in a cave or loathe little girls, you've probably heard of Hannah Montana."  Sounds about right. [Variety]

  • Getting Fired Is Funny On Fox.  Fox has turned our pain into a reality show -- our unemployment pain, that is.  Operating under the working title of "Someone's Gotta Go," the project sounds kind of... awesome: A small, 20-person company will be told by management that there will be layoffs -- the twist being, the staff gets to pick who gets the axe.  Eeeevil.  Muahahaha.  [The Hollywood Reporter]
