Heather Locklear and Denise Richards: Both Dumped By Jill Atkins
May 17, 2006 Denise Richards and heather Locklear both now have something common besides rocker Richie Sambora. Both gals have been dumped, by ABC.
Denise and Heather: No Love From ABC
Star Magazine is reporting that the ex-best-
buddies had been battling for a spot on ABC's new fall TV schedule.
The good news: They had both filmed pilots for prospective series — Richards in the ensemble drama Secrets of a Small Town, Locklear in the sitcom Women of a Certain Age.
But now the bad news: ABC has decided not to turn either pilot into a new series this fall.

It looks as if both girls will be without network television exposure until the network pulls the plug on other shows. And still there is no guarantee, but they then may have the opportunity for the second wave of shows that already have pilots.
Tough break for both.
