Cowboy Lover Man

Well, clearly, cable’s where it’s at if you were on TV’s Fringe the past few years.

Anna Torv is already starring on a potential new HBO show, and now Joshua Jackson has signed on to lead a little something new – a one-hour drama – over at Showtime.

The erstwhile Pacey Peter is gonna star on The Affair, as a the Long Island-cowboy-corner of a complicated love square that also involves Dominic West (HBO’s The Wire) and Maura Tierney.

The Affair, which counts among its powers that be folks that cut their teeth on HBO’s gone-to-soon In Treatment, will be told separately from the male and the female perspective.
