SPOILERS!!!


Question: How about some non-Huddy House scoop for a change? -- Dani

Ausiello: Could I interest you in something on Thoreman? Never heard of that particular portmanteau? That's about to change, since executive producer Katie Jacobs tells me that a major, potentially romantic story line involving Foreman and Thirteen will kick off in November when Olivia Wilde's ailing alter ego agrees to participate in a clinical trial overseen by Omar Epps' Foreman. As a result, the pair "are going to be spending a serious amount of time together," reveals Jacobs. Thirteen's leap of faith will follow a tumultuous few episodes in which she has a random hook-up with an unidentified lovergirl (see last week's AA for more on that) and witnesses firsthand the horrors of Huntington's via a patient played by Lori Petty (A League of Their Own). "I don't want to see Thirteen come down with Huntington's," confesses Jacobs, "but I think it's important for the audience to see what she's up against in dealing with [the disease]."


Question: I have been very grateful for your Supernatural scoop, but I would be even more grateful if you keep it coming! -- Toni-Ann

Ausiello: Oh, Toni-Ann, if there's one thing I like more than a catnap, it's gratitude, so here ya go: The show is currently casting another Big Bad, a middle-aged demon whose air of gentility does little to mask the stink of his cruelty. The recurring character is one of the top dogs down under, so it's a safe bet that he's gonna raise some hell for the Winchesters.


Question: Is Kim Bauer's return related to the 24 writers shutting down production for two weeks? Or is there any specific reason for them doing so? -- Yong

Ausiello: Wrong, Yong — Elisha Cuthbert's comeback and the production time-out are unrelated; the powers that be simply wanted a stronger finish to the season. Apparently, they also needed some new characters, as a bunch more are being cast as I type this. One, Clea Bowden, is a thirtysomething Mata Hari who's as hot as she is cold; she's an attorney for the day's public enemy No. 1, Jonas Hodges (Jon Voight). Another recurring newbie is Alan Wilson, a forty-to-fiftysomething Trump who is as powerful as Jonas.


Question: Do you have any info on what will happen to Smallville's Chloe on the day of her wedding, please? -- Naomi

Ausiello: Very bad things. Imagine a cross between The Blair Witch Project and Cloverfield. Now imagine it at Jimmy and Chloe's reception. Short-story-shorter: I hope someone remembered to take out wedding insurance.


Question: I don't know if I can wait until January or February for Lost. Got any scoop on it? -- Nick

Ausiello: Sawyer, Juliet, Daniel, Miles, Charlotte, and ***** will learn Jin's fate at the precise moment we do: In episode 4. In other news, ask yourself this question: Why was Jorge Garcia shooting a scene in jail last week?


Question: How bad are the ratings for Prison Break? Is there any hope for a full season? -- Isy

Ausiello: The ratings aren't great, but Fox already ordered a full, 22-episode season and they have yet to amend that order. Speaking of PB, based on what I'm hearing about the next few episodes, producers should bag the women in prison spinoff and pitch Fox Gretchen and T-Bag instead.
