It certainly would be a viewing booster if Bakula accepted, and now, it's just a matter of whether he does; however, comments that he made very recently suggest that he won't, though he has wished good luck to the new "Leap's" cast and staff. Q: Will Jenna Dewan still be a regular on "The Rookie" in its new year? – Perry Moss, Stuart, Fla. A: She will, and she recently told us that she's very happy to remain with the ABC police drama as it starts its fifth season Sunday, Sept. 25. It's just one of several television jobs the actress-dancer has been juggling lately; she also recurs as Lucy Lane on The CW's "Superman & Lois" (slated to return at midseason), plus she stars as a dancer-by-day/madam-by-night in the Oct. 15 Lifetime movie "Let's Get Physical," which she also executive-produced (along with Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos).
