It’s pilot season, which means that actors are getting cast in shows that may or may not make the air at a much faster rate than I can possibly keep track of. But, because I’m a sex-obsessed pig, here’s a quick rundown of attractive women who’ve recently landed roles:

Rachel Bilson is a flawless human being, so of course she beat out everyone on the planet for a role in the CW’s “Hart of Dixie.” From Deadline: “It is a comedic drama centered on a young New York City doctor (Bilson) who inherits a medical practice in a small Southern town inhabited by an eclectic and eccentric group of characters.” So… Doc Hollywood meets “Northern Exposure” meets the girl of my dreams (see following pages). Gotcha.

Annie Wersching, previously hailed at Warming Glow for being unhinged and super-hot on “24,” has landed a lead role in ABC’s “Partners,” a cop drama about two female detectives “who are fiercely loyal to one another since they’re also secretly half-sisters.”

Anna Camp, the perky blonde preacher’s wife from “True Blood,” landed one of the two lesbian roles in the NBC pilot “I Hate That I Love You” (previously written about here). Aw, a lesbian? What a waste of handjob skills! [Deadline]

Laura Prepon will play a young version of Chelseas Handler in an NBC pilot called “Are You There Vodka? It’s Me, Chelsea.” Prepon will play “a fresh-faced single cocktail waitress highly opinionated and open about her love to drink and have sex.” I like that last part, but I could do with fewer opinions.

High Society (CW) — Series premiere. Billed essentially as “Jersey Shore with rich people,” this is already reviled by critics who’ve had the misfortune to screen it. The Los Angeles Times called the cast members “aging children of unearned privilege” while noting their various and sickening disconnection with people living in the real world. I’d much rather go clubbing with Pauly D and the Situation. Can anyone lend me an Ed Hardy shirt?

America’s Next Top Model (CW) — Season premiere. Ninety minutes of Tyra. I swear this is like the 20th season in the last five years.

Modern Family (ABC) — Judy Greer guest stars as one of Phil’s old girlfriends. Again: I’ve enjoyed most the guest stars this season, but they’re really unnecessary.

Human Target (Fox) — This dud makes me want to go buy the eponymous comic books that have been debased by the show’s existence.

CSI: New York (CBS) — Ian Ziering guest stars! Steve Sanders in the house!

Psych (USA) — Season finale. I’d like to thank to the handful of people who offered their sincere recommendation that I watch this show. I still haven’t caught an episode, but it was a really nice gesture.

Attack of the Show (G4) — I don’t give this show much love, because it comes on at 7 p.m. (too early) and I don’t know where to find G4 on my cable box. But Annie Wersching (crazy Renee from “24″) will be on the show, and I happen to consider that newsworthy.

For those of you who didn’t see the return of Renee (Annie Wersching) on last night’s “24″ and are worried about spoilers, I can tell you this much: this guy’s hand does NOT get sawed off. But what happens next is pretty awesome, so if you don’t want it spoiled, stop reading now.
