We’re at the end of another week, so let’s take a look back and see what’s been going on in TV world…
Battlestar Galactica
(BuddyTV)In Bless my BG source who was able to get me spoilers for 1 upcoming episode. “Razor,” we join young Bill Adama in his fight against the cylons when he was just a Lieutenant. He can’t believe a treaty is signed, ending the war at that time. We’re also on Battlestar Pegasus when Lee Adama moves in as the new Commander, and he meets some of the old crew. He’s trying to get everything running again. “Razor” is said to be a two-part arc that which will take place for episodes 4.01 and 4.02.
Grey’s Anatomy
(AOL) Executives tied to the show say the fourth-season plan is to add several cast members, including at least one fresh-faced new intern: Meredith Grey’s half-sister Lexi (Chyler Leigh) will become a frequent presence with a multi-episode story arc. They are also seeking a new recurring male character to compete with Patrick Dempsey’s Dr. McDreamy.
Heroes
(TVGuide) …the Japan-born Riyo Mori says one “super” job lead might find her on no less than NBC’s Heroes, playing Yaeko, a new character whom she describes as a love interest for one of the main characters. “I went to the casting audition and read a script in English and Japanese, and they said it was really good,” the 20-year-old dancer tells the Associated Press. “So I hope I can be in the show.”
(eOnline) …they’re welcoming a new recurring character named Will, aka Blackie, an Irish mobster who’s mixed up in small-time crime!
(eOnline) I’m hearing we meet a new character who’s been alive for 1,000 years. And sadly, he is not played by David Boreanaz. I’m pretty sure it’s the character David Anders is in the running for, but not sure.
(Spoilerfix) The episode will feature a villainous Japanese warlord who is known as “White Beard,” various old Japanese villagers as well as Tuko, a West-African man working for Irish mobster Ricky.
(This is Bollywood) Bollywood actress and former Miss World Aishwarya Rai has signed up to star in top US sci-fi serial Heroes. The Indian babe, who recently married fellow actor Abhishek Bachchan, will appear in 8 episodes of the coming series of the NBC show revolving around a batch of super-enhanced human beings. It has been reported that Aishwarya Rai will play the role of Dr. Mohinder Suresh’s elder sister Shanti Suresh, and will have a super-power of her own, something which has not yet been disclosed. Aishwarya will begin shooting in Los Angeles later this month, and is expected to be seen on-screen as early as October of this year.
(National Ledger) With all the talk about new heroes showing up on “Heroes” in the coming season — which, by the way, starts shooting next week — it’s especially interesting that the show is casting for several possibly recurring characters. Per casting sources, they include: a pretty and kind elementary school teacher, a hippie-ish high school chemistry teacher, a Kinko’s store manager, a small-time Irish mobster and a California high school girl who isn’t especially athletic. Save the klutz, save the world?
Kyle XY
(BuddyTV) Darcy, one of our chat regulars, sent me the following spoilers: Episode 2.02, “Homecoming,” Claiming that his parents were killed in a car crash, Kyle is back at the Tragers’ to stay. But his homecoming isn’t as happy as he thought it would be when he realizes all of the secrets he must keep from the family he loves. Torn between wanting to be home and not wanting to keep anything from the Tragers, Kyle wonders if he should have come back after all. Meanwhile, XX begins her journey outside of the walls of Zzyzx.
Darcy also sent us spoilers for “The List is Life,” episode 2.03. Kyle finds that returning to his old life is virtually impossible, as Tom Foss hounds him to work on his new skills and he is devastated to know he played a part in Lori and Declan’s break-up. Meanwhile, now that Madacorp’s boss Ballantine knows of Kyle’s existence, he has a new mission for Emily and XX to bring Kyle back at any cost.
The Office
(FOX News) Is Dwight Schrute about to have his own TV series? That’s the buzz at NBC, where new head of programming Ben Silverman could be thinking about a spin-off from the hit sitcom “The Office.”…When I ran into Rainn Wilson, the actor who plays Dwight on the show, at Sunday night’s post-Tony party, he actually brought up the idea, then seemed a little surprised he’d said it out loud.
(TVGuide) …a source close to Mr. Schrute’s portrayer, Rainn Wilson, tells TVGuide.com that the “buzz” is “totally made up… a complete farce.”
Prison Break
(BuddyTV) What I can tell you tonight is that in “Orientacíon,” Lincoln goes to a bar in a high rise restaurant. He is set to meet someone there. He sits at the bar and orders water. A woman, known as Betty Crocker for now, sits besides him and starts talking to him. He doesn’t know her, but she does know him and Michael. As they talk, he clearly tells her it is the wrong time and he is waiting for someone. But she presses on and eventually says that it is the right time “Lincoln” and “We have a lot to discuss. Specifically your brother.” She then gives him an iPod. It is not clear what/who Betty is exactly but she seems to be an agent of some sort. Question is, for which side is she working for?
