[Entertainment Weekly](http://www.ew.com) recently [reported](http://www.ew.com/ew/report/0,6115,262643~3|16070~0~,00.html) on the latest shady doings from the world of *la cosa nostra:* Fairuza Balk, who appeared in [The Sopranos](http://www.hbo.com/sopranos)‘ third-season finale as undercover FBI agent Deborah Ciccerone, tasked to approach Drea de Matteo’s Adriana La Cerva for a little girl-talk, has been replaced for season four by Lola Glaudini, formerly of *NYPD Blue.*
|
||
|
||
Not such big news: the [two Darrins](http://www.bewitched.net) made this kind of TV-switcheroo years ago, and Agent Ciccerone’s hardly as focal as that.
|
||
|
||
Except that David Chase et al have taken this replacement to Huxleyan lengths, reshooting Balk’s scenes with Glaudini in the role for the upcoming (August 27) season three DVD release.
|
||
|
||
Reports suggest that Balk has entered the witness protection program. And about that, we’ll say no more.
