Isaak will play himself in the upcoming Showtime series "The Chris Isaak Show" and says he won't get to do any of the mean things he does in real life, such as flip people off while driving. He tells "TV Guide Online," "It's a lot easier to be nicer than I really am." -- NEW YORK -- One-legged "Big Brother" winner Eddie McGee is stretching out his 15 minutes of fame.
