The USA cable network has ordered a full season of “Royal Pains,” a television series about a Manhattan doctor who ends up practicing in the Hamptons. The show, which features Mark Feuerstein, Christine Ebersole and Jill Flint, filmed in Southampton last September, and will return to the South Fork later this winter. * * * Amagansett’s Alec Baldwin was recently honored by the Tisch School of the Arts at a gala held at Lincoln Center’s Rose Hall. In attendance were East Hampton’s Jonathan and Lizzie Tisch and Andrew and Ann Tisch. Honored alongside Baldwin for their achievements in the arts were Maurice Kanbar, Iris Cantor and Zelda Fichandler. * * * The Montauk Monster might have washed ashore months ago, but his legacy lives on — in a Brazilian Volkswagen ad. * * * On Sunday, January 25, Linda B. Shapiro will host a special event benefiting OLA & OLA YG (Younger Generation), the East End’s premier Latino organization. The event will be held at Townline BBQ/La Fondita in Wainscott, from 3-5 p.m. Chef Joe Realmuto’s fabulous menu will feature chips & pico de gallo, quesadillas, chicken flautas, tinga tostados, calamari cocktail, al pastor skewers and more. Live music and a cash bar round out the afternoon’s festivities. Tickets are $15 and space is limited. Contact Shapiro for more information and reservations at 631-329-5480. * * * Hamptons resident Donna Karan recently announced that she has dropped fur from her collections. Karan, who has been protested by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, released a statement saying that there is no fur in any of her Fall 2009 lines, and has no plans for fur in future lines. Karan’s move follows those made by fellow Hamptons designers Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein, who all recently stopped using fur and skins in their clothing lines. * * * Amagansett celebrity lawyer Michael J. Griffith will be the basis of a character in the forthcoming novel, Skeleton Justice, published by Alfred A. Knopf. The authors are Griffith’s good friends, Dr. Michael Baden and Linda Kenney Baden. * * * Hamptonite John Catsimatidis, who has built supermarket and oil empires, told Bruce Littlefield, the lifestyle author, that he would like to do a book on New York — the love of his life. Littlefield has previously written books with many celebrities. * * * Southampton’s Calvin Klein is seeking permission from the village’s Board of Historic Preservation and Architectural Review to demolish his oceanfront home and replace it with a house half the size. The Meadow Lane estate was originally built by Henry Francis du Pont in the 1920s and has a storied past. Prior to Klein, its owners included Francesco Galesi, “Baby” Jane Holzer, John Samuels III and Barry Trupin. The 6.6-acre property is assessed at $32 million.
