SPOILERS!


Lydia in Pennsylvania: Do you know when the season one DVD will be released for True Blood? I'm waiting patiently since my friends are raving about this show and I don't have HBO!
Mark May 19 on your calendar, because that's when True Blood's S1 DVD drops. But here's an early present. The trailer! Check it out here. And we just heard we'll have to wait until August for Sons of Anarchy. (Everyone needs "The Pull" within clicking distance, and it isn't on Hulu anymore. Bah!)


Vicky in Midland, Mich.: Is it true Stephen Fry is returning to Bones?
Yes, there will be a bit of Fry in the April 16 ep, and Bones boss Hart Hanson tells us, "Stephen Fry is wonderful. He has a great chemistry with David Boreanaz, and he has scenes with John Francis Daley, who is ostensibly the guy who replaced him. It was a thrill to have him here." Holler!

Mark in Phoenix: Can we get any info or scoop on the new CBS show Harper's Island? It looks awesome!
The first of Harper's Island's 13 episodes premieres Thursday, April 9, at 10 p.m. on CBS. But don't get too attached to any of the characters: At least two (members of a wedding party) will die before the end of the first ep, and plenty more follow until the killer is revealed in the last ep (July 2). Sadly, it looks like the annoying flower girl, Madison (whom the producers want you to believe is "spooky"), is one of the survivors. Get a sneak peek into the show at its much-creepier companion website, Harper's Globe, which delves into the town's historic mass murders—and why they are (dun, dun, dun!) happening again!

Heath in Boston: Thanks for the intel on the House and Cuddy hookup! Any more scoop on the season finale?
Yup, our House source spotted finale guest star Carl Reiner (Ocean's Eleven) on the set, along with a half-dressed male stripper running out of the clinic dressed as a pirate. Either Cuddy is getting twice the action in one day, or House has a crazy patient on his hands.

Tania in Los Angeles: When will Fringe be back?
Fringe is finally back on Tuesday night, and you will never believe the scoop we have for you: Olivia has a son! OK, not really, but it sure caught your attention. She does, however, develop a bit of a maternal bond with a young boy who's been living underground with no food and no water for years. He's pale white and bald and has got to be a mini-Observer, right? Speaking of Observers, according to Anna Torv, "We're shooting the final episode and we're sort of starting to get more of a glimpse into what their function is." Guesses, besides the obvious?

Gisselle in Tampa, Fla.: When are Sawyer and Kate getting back together on Lost?
No time in season five, but check back for season six. You should like what you see... (P.S. Exec prod Eddy Kitsis says, perhaps jokingly, perhaps not, "Season six is free to be you and me. Do what you feel.")

Melva in Orlando: My favorite Lost characters have remained Jack, Charlie, Boone and Sayid since the first ep. I'm down by two. So, can you help a sister out: Are Jack and Sayid a sure bet to live through next season? I can't imagine a Lost series finale without either of them!
No promises about a series finale, but neither Jack nor Sayid are the major Lost death happening in season five.

Tony in Hoboken, N.J.: Hey, guys, any word yet on what the code name for the Lost finale's final scene will be?
Yes. It's not as boring as "The Bagel," but not as laugh-out-loud silly as "Frozen Donkey Wheel." This year's name was chosen from fan submissions, and the winning name is..."The Fork in the Outlet," according to ABC reps. The actual episode, though, is titled "The Incident." Sounds like the Losties are going to be messing with the electromagnetic power of the Island, to return to the future or to unleash the metal-shavings monster. (Remember what Michael Emerson told us about Smokey? "I think it all has something to do with metallic dust. I think the smoke monster is connected to that ring of powder that surrounds Jacob's cabin. They've established that there are supermagnetic forces at work on the Island, so what better medium for those forces to work through than through fine filings of metal.")

Fiona in Reston, Va.: Is it true that Clark is finally gonna fly this season on Smallville?
There's no proper flying or supersuit this season, but there will be a Smallville "leap" that goes above and beyond a tall building—but it isn't actually flying. Sorry Superfans.

Diana: Mama needs 24 news!
Elisha Cuthbert returns as Kim next week. Jack has been exposed to bioweapons and might well be kicking the bucket. Coincidence?

Lionel in Perkasie, Penn.: What's coming up on Eureka?
We caught up with Eureka's Colin Ferguson and he told us, "We left with Allison (Salli Richardson-Whitfield) getting pregnant, so we deal with that over the course of the season. Henry's (Joe Morton) long-lost love comes back, and I have a love interest for the season. It's not Allison, so it's got complications. And Zoe (Jordan Hinson) is getting ready to go off to college, or not." Colin also gets to direct an episode this season. "It's probably the best episode anyone's ever directed, for sure!" he jokes.

Mitch in Austin, Texas: What's going on with Stargate Universe?
Lots of dying, that's what! Robert Carlyle gives us the Stargate scoop: "In the first three hours [of the first episode] there are three deaths. By episode six, there is a suicide, so people are really struggling up there. Of the first six episodes, the first three are all in one [story] called "Air." The next one is called 'Fire,' the next one is called 'Earth,' and the next one is called 'Water.' What makes this different from the previous Stargate franchise pieces is that it's a lot darker."

Ron in Brattleboro, Vt.: What's coming up when Sanctuary returns?
"We ended with a bit of a cliffhanger at the end of the first season," Sanctuary's Amanda Tapping tells us, "and this first part of this season is really dark. It's darker and edgier, and we're dealing with a force that could potentially destroy Sanctuary, so there's a huge edge to it. I think we'll see a lot more of the dark, angry side of [my character] Helen Magnus in the first part of the season." Adds Robin Dunne, "There's some heavy stuff in the two-hour opener that I think fans are really going to be blown away by. This adhesive that keeps them all together, this belief, gets rattled a little bit."
