When last we saw Rob Lowe in a Lifetime movie, he was playing murderer Drew Peterson with a sandy mustache that made him look like the world's most dangerous park ranger.
Lowe has a much better vehicle for himself in Prosecuting Casey Anthony (Saturday, 8 p.m. Et/Pt), in which he plays Jeff Ashton, the Florida prosecutor who last year failed to win one of the country's most notorious capital cases.
As the court announces that Anthony, who had been charged with killing her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee, is guilty only of misdemeanor charges, Lowe clasps his hands in front of him and – in a fine,...

How you feel about Prosecuting Casey Anthony — whether you even choose to watch it — likely depends on how much time you spent watching the actual prosecution of Anthony, the young Florida woman acquitted of murdering her toddler daughter Caylee despite the sordid details of the case that held the nation in its thrall. Though the Lifetime film, which premieres Saturday night at 8, is culled from Florida prosecutor Jeff Ashton’s memoir Imperfect Justice: Prosecuting Casey Anthony, much of it feels like a retread of the endless footage that permeated television from the announcement of Caylee’s disappearance on July [...]...

Rob Lowe returns to Lifetime this weekend with the film "Prosecuting Casey Anthony." Instead of shining a positive light on Anthony, the story is told from the perspective of one of the case's prosecutors, Jeff Ashton.
In anticipation of the movie's premiere on Jan. 19, Lowe has been doing the rounds promoting "Prosecuting Casey Anthony." He talks to Showbiz Tonight about his impressions of the trial.
"This was a circus, and I think Jeff is a gentleman of court," Lowe says. "He comes from an era where certain things are done and certain things are not done in court. I think [Anthony's attorney] Jose Baez is the type of lawyer who just goes for it and the jury believed Jose."
He adds to Fox411 of his reaction to Anthony not being indicted, "I was shocked by the verdict like I think 99 percent of people were, but then when I dug into the minutiae...

We're starting to get details of American Horror Story's third season. Evan Peters and Sarah Paulson will return for the third story. Ryan Murphy added that he had promised Jessica Lange she'd get to wear some designer gowns to get her to return after playing Sister Jude, so her character this time will be a "glamour cat leading lady."
Meanwhile, the big industry news is that Fox might split American Horror Story's network into two channels. Broadcasting & Cable reports that FX would keep the dramatic content while the new network would focus on comedy (similar to the division between TNT and TBS) and inherit shows like Archer and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. The new channel would take over the Fox Soccer channel.
After quitting Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, Meredith Viera might be entering the daytime talk show scene.
