Maya in Milford, Del.: Any truth to the rumor that Ethan Hawke or Campbell Scott are being cast as Wilson's homeless brother on House? None whatsoever. I caught up with House executive producers Katie Jacobs and David Shore, and they firmly debunked both those casting rumors. Katie says, "Wilson does have this brother, and David has just written a beautiful episode where that comes into play again." Any thoughts on who the brother should be? I vote for Kyle Bornheimer. Worst Week's season finale is coming up, and there's a resemblance, right?
Melissa in Boise, Idaho: Have you heard anything about Sons of Anarchy lately? I miss SAMCRO when they're gone.
Good news! Sons of Anarchy show runner Kurt Sutter posted on his
blog that they've gone back into the writer's room for season two. Production begins in late April, and SAMCRO should be back on the air in September, give or take a month.
Charlie in San Francisco: I know it's really early, but have you heard anything about Dexter season four?
Only that castmembers Kristin Dattilo (Angel's vice-squad girlfriend Det. Gianna) and Desmond Harrington (Det. Quinn, better known to you Gossip Girl fans as Jack Bass) would love to come back for another go. And I can personally testify that Kristin and David Zayas' chemistry is as good in real life as it is on the show. When I asked Kristin at the SAG Awards if she'd be back, David cut in to answer with an emphatic, no-disagreement-brooked Yes, and then Kristin giggled and told me, "David's the best, and all season he took amazing, amazing care of me." So cute!
Andy in San Diego, Calif.: All I care about is Lost, Lost and more Lost. Please!
Just a word of advice for anyone on/off/or around the island, don't mess with Charles Widmore, young or old. Young? Yeah, we'll see a young version of him this Wednesday. (Sidenote: You also shouldn't mess with the actor who plays Charles Widmore if you're a member of the Flight of the Conchords…Alan Dale pops by this Sunday to HBO for one of the funniest eps ever of this very funny series.) Also, remember how Richard Alpert showed up when Locke was born and a few other times as well? We'll finally find out why he was there. Oh, and Daniel Faraday is not who he seems. He's done some bad things with some bad people before he got to the island.
Preston in St. Louis: Fugitives is almost here! Anything good coming up on Heroes?
Looks like everyone's memories are safe—at least for the time being. Jimmy-Jean Louis tells me not to expect a whole lot of screen time from our favorite Haitian in Fugitives. "I don't know too much about it, to be honest with you, because I've not been doing too much in this volume." I'm also hearing that it's very likely that at least one Hero will not be coming back for the next season. It's being sorted out right now who from the cast will go.
Lily in Tennessee: Please, more House scoopage! About anyone but Foreteen!
How about the other two new kids then?
Kal Penn (who just got back from Obama's inauguration) tells me, "[Kutner] does have an arc this season—you'll see him more at home, with the giant bowl of cereal, for example, and we'll see how the thing with his parents affects him," and Peter Jacobsen tells me, "There's trouble in paradise with Taub's marriage. Nothing too drastic at the moment, but there's difficulties looming."
Melanie in Manhattan, N.Y.: Hey, you said in your show that Cam from Bones gets a child. Is that true? Do you have any more details?
Tamara Taylor wouldn't say if it was a boy or a girl, but did tell me that the child would be in "the awkward years." Also, since Emily Deschanel told me Booth and Bones would be in bed together, I had to dig a little deeper. Turns out, it could be a trick! Taylor says, "They've been toying around with interesting ideas about alternate realities, where perhaps they're married, where we're all in interesting, different roles. So we may get to see it, but it may not be real."
Cecily in Portland, Ore.: Since Sarah killed a man in front of Chuck, will the pair be OK when the show returns?
Chuck chief Josh Schwartz tells me Chuck still doesn't know Sarah was actually saving his life, adding, "That's a dynamic that obviously is going to be complicated."
Morgangirl in Rhode Island: Chuck scoop!
Josh Schwartz tells me, "There's a very sexy MI6 agent who comes in to help on a mission for a couple of episodes, played by Jonathan Cake. He's a real sort of badass Gerard Butler-type who definitely catches Sarah's eye. There are a couple things that are going to happen towards the end of this season that are sort of a point of no return for Sarah and Chuck. It could be a point of no return in a good way or point of no return in a bad way, you'll have to stay tuned.
Erica in Manila, the Philippines: Please provide more scoop on Fringe. I love it, especially Peter and Olivia's chemistry. Are they ever getting together?
According to creator Bob Orci, "Sooner or later the story of John Scott will play itself out, and maybe we get to a place where [Peter and Olivia] finally notice each other in a new way." Scotty, you're hot, but take a hike!
Brenda in Augusta, Maine: Any news about season two of True Blood? Do you know what Michelle Forbes' deal is?
I love everything she does and that mystery intrigues me.I talked to Michelle at a Paley Center event honoring DirecTV's relaunch of Wonderland, and she told me that on True Blood, "I am a maenad, which is a supernatural wood-nymph creature. There are a lot of strange creatures in crazy old Bon Temps."
Espy in Staten Island, New York: Thanks for all the Supernatural scoop, but what about Castiel (Misha Collins)? Is he ever coming back?
I'm told we'll next see Castiel in March-ish. In other news, Lilith hijacks the body of a dental hygienist and returns to wreak havoc on the Winchesters in ep 18. Last but not least, you have to watch this
sneak peek for Thursday's SPN, which flashes back to Sam and Dean in high school. That's a positively uncanny Jensen Ackles-as-Dean impression, if you ask me!
Martin in New Orleans: Anything on Smallville?
Tess knows all about Clark's secret.
