If we're ever in a jam, we want Miranda Baily on our side, giving us pep talks and answering those 3AM phone calls.

On 'Grey's Anatomy' (Thurs., 9PM ET on ABC), the Chief knows he's an alcoholic, but feels like drinking "is all I have left." No, Chief. You listen to Bailey. She's got it right.

"You are better than this," she says. "I've seen you be better. Look, the way to win, the way to beat them is to stop fighting them. You go get better. You be the man that I've always known you to be. You be the Chief."

We couldn't have said it better ourselves.

Uma Thurman is set to star alongside Paddy Considine and Jonathan Pryce in My Zinc Bed, an adaptation of David Hare's 2000 play expected to air on HBO sometime next year.

The movie focuses on an alcoholic, Considine, who has an affair with his boss' wife, played by Thurman. Hare is involved with the project, which is being directed by Anthony Page, who has directed for television several times, including the Masterpiece Theater miniseries Middlemarch.

Hare's other projects include the screenplay for The Hours, for which he received an Oscar nomination in 2003.

Thurman previously appeared on HBO in 2003's Hysterical Blindness.

Despite all the publicity leading up to Friday's premiere of The Book of Daniel on NBC, it still didn't do so hot in the ratings. The two-hour premiere, which aired from 9-11 pm on Friday, averaged about 9 million viewers. That's fewer than Close to Home, Numb3rs, In Justice, and 20/20, which all aired against Daniel on CBS and ABC. In Justice and 20/20 barely beat Daniel, each with a little more than 9 million viewers.

I watched The Book of Daniel out of pure curiosity. I like Aidan Quinn and I wanted to give the guy a chance. Plus, I wanted to see whether all the ruckus was justified. It wasn't.
