Ask the Addict:
TRUE BLOOD鈥檚 return is sooooo close I can taste it! Any scoop to tied me over? 鈥 Rachel
The TV Addict: Well, since Michael Ausiello already beat us to the punch with regards to the , and we sure as heck aren鈥檛 about to spoil the identity of Bon Temps newest Real Estate baron, we鈥檒l leave fans with two tantalizing words to tide you over until the show鈥檚 June 26 return: Think LOST.
Any word on what fans can expect from the second season of HAWAII FIVE-0? 鈥 David
The TV Addict: Taking the literal approach to answering your question, 鈥淩omance鈥 would probably be the one word we鈥檇 choose to sum up the start of HAWAII FIVE-0鈥瞫 second season. Particularly because the show鈥檚 Producers (or perhaps Network Bigwigs) have seemingly decided that if you can鈥檛 beat 鈥榚m 鈥 them of course referring to timeslot competitor CASTLE 鈥 you might as well join 鈥榚m. Which is to say, fans should brace themselves for a little island lovefest as Producers begin their search for a thirty-something bombshell to Alex O鈥橪oughlin鈥檚 part-time love interest, full-time Homeland Security Officer Lori Wilson, a character that sources describe as a female McGarrett.
Ridiculously excited for FALLING SKIES. Especially curious as to what the aliens beef is with us poor humans. Any clues? 鈥 Jay
The TV Addict: Funny story actually. During our recent visit to the set of the upcoming ABC/Global TV series COMBAT HOSPITAL, we happened to with someone intimately involved with FALLING SKIES which coincidentally enough shot many of their scenes on the very same lot. Much to our surprise, said source was perhaps a little too excited about what鈥檚 in store for FALLING SKIES fans, to the point where he actually went as far as to reveal how the season ends! And while we鈥檙e not about to spoil that gem, we will say that those pesky arachnid-style aliens who come down to earth to enslave humanity鈥檚 youth鈥 well, they might just be the least of the planet鈥檚 problems.
Recently you that there may be a 鈥渂un in the oven鈥 for one member of Vinnie鈥檚 ENTOURAGE. Were you being serious? 鈥 Bruce
The TV Addict: About as serious as Vinnie is, who we here will soon be shopping for rings of the Karat variety.
Any word on who will be replacing Saffron Burrows on THE FINDER? 鈥 Cassie
The TV Addict: No. Although we can confirm that Hart Hanson is currently on the look out to add two new females to the cast, Isabel and Willa. The latter being an ex-con who is forced to work at Leo鈥檚 bar as a condition of her parole, with the former playing a Deputy United States Marshall who not only has a history with our hero Walter, but a romantic one at that.
Rumor has it that the central mystery surrounding TORCHWOOD: MIRACLE DAY revolves around how the entire world suddenly stops dying. Of course knowing TORCHWOOD there must be a catch, care to elaborate? 鈥 Michael
The TV Addict: It would be our pleasure! The catch is that everybody in the world becomes immune to death鈥 well, with the notable exception of one. Who that person is may-or-may-not surprise you. That said, one thing is for certain, it鈥檚 not Oswald Danes (brilliantly portrayed by Bill Pullman) who was scheduled to be executed on Miracle Day.
Any SHAMELESS scoop? 鈥 Jennifer
The TV Addict: Fans will be happy to know that when SHAMELESS finally does return, the small screen鈥檚 most resourceful family won鈥檛 have learned a thing from last season鈥檚 ridiculousness. While Lip make ends meet by commandeering an Ice Cream Truck to sell, well鈥 anything but, Fiona will do a very poor bad job of putting her past relationships behind her by hooking up with Adam, a 27-year-old MBA who bares more than a passing resemblance to the departed Steve. Oh, and for those who are wondering the status of Ian鈥檚 relationship with Kash, you鈥檒l be happy to know that Kash did keep his side of the bargain in terms of getting his beard wife Linda pregnant again. Read into that what you will.
As a huge fan of WHITE COLLAR I鈥檓 incredibly concerned that the Nazi U-Boat treasure will be too inciting for Neal. Is there any chance he won鈥檛 betray Peter? 鈥 Amber
The TV Addict: Truthfully we鈥檙e not sure. But if it helps, the decision to turn his back on Peter and the FBI isn鈥檛 one Neal Caffrey will be taking lightly. So much so that the tenth episode of the season entitled 鈥淐ountdown鈥 will have Mozie confronting Neal with an ultimatum of sorts that goes a little something like so, 鈥淚鈥檝e been patient. Some might eve say door-mattish with understanding, but now you have to choose, Neal. Do you want to leave or not.鈥
Any word on how TERRA NOVA is shaping up? For such a huge gamble on behalf of Fox, we鈥檝e heard surprisingly little. 鈥 Nick
The TV Addict: Word, we鈥檝e got tons of them. Unfortunately as a result of a gentlemen鈥檚 agreement we鈥檝e made with our very good friends over at FOX 鈥 who curiously enough seem to be taking a page from the J.J. Abrams school of less-is-more when it comes to publicizing TERRA NOVA 鈥 we are not at liberty to share the glowing review our very own West Coast correspondent extraordinaire Tiffany Vogt sent us following her exclusive screening on the FOX lot.
