SPOILERS!

The first half of this season's Supernatural has pretty much been The Dean Winchester & Castiel Show featuring guest appearances by Jared Padalecki's Sam. Is this a trend that you see continuing? — Eric

MATT: I know, people are still smarting from "In the Beginning," right? This I can tell you: When the season resumes on Jan. 15, the first two episodes are equal parts Dean and Sam (with the first entry being gloriously dark and scary). But what Jared fans should most look forward is the third outing, "After School Special," in which both teen and modern-day Sam experience much emotional upheaval.

Is there anything in the Smallville episode "Hex" that furthers the Clark-Lois relationship? — Trisha

MATT: It's fair to say there's a little something for every fan base in this season's 17th outing, in which a truly magical magician fulfills Chloe's wish to have Lois' "easy" life ... by transplanting her into her cousin's body. While my frenemy already teased a "longing look" between Clark and "Lois" — and Erica Durance's admirers can obviously count on seeing gobs of their fave actress — Chloe fans should be very pleased with an epiphany their girl reaches at episode's end. By the way, you know Clark gets a wish granted as well, right?

I'm loving the new TNT show Leverage. It seems like Nate and Sophie have a romantic history. Any episode where we find out if there's still a spark? — Maya

TIM: Can you wait to see for yourself on Tuesday at 10 pm? Because in the very next episode, "The Miracle Job," Nate and Sophie take a second to reminisce about the past — and consider whether they have a future. Sophie seems open, but makes it clear she won't wait forever for Nate to make up his mind.

I'm dying to know if there is any chance that we will see Adam Monroe again on Heroes? — Stacie

MATT: In the spirit of giving, Stacie, I made a valiant last bid to secure you a status report. Alas, a source confirms for me that David Anders' character "is as dead as dead can be." That's right — even given the very fluid afterlife of Heroes, there are no signs that Anders will be back.
