While FRINGE may have had their official season premiere back in September, in many ways, Friday’s episode felt in many ways like an entirely new beginning (or at the very least, a new arc now that Peter has returned).
To answer some of my burning “Novation” questions, I went to FRINGE executive producers Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman to see what they could spill about the hour, plus more of what’s to come…

Comments Off on ONCE UPON A TIME: Ginnifer Goodwin and Josh Dallas Preview ‘Snow Falls’
On tonight’s brand new episode of ONCE UPON A TIME, viewers will get to delve deeper into the love story at the center of the series — the relationship between Prince Charming and Snow White. But if you think you know their story, get ready to be surprised by what unfolds onscreen.
“I can tell you that it is unexpected,” Ginnifer Goodwin (Snow White/Mary Margaret) told reporters on set last month. “I was really excited to tackle the inception of their story because it is based more on animosity and manipulation and selfishness. And they have a very far way to go from their moment of meeting to falling in love and that was greatly challenging and fun.”

GLEE Spoilers: “The First Time” Teasers
November 4, 2011 by Kath Skerry
Filed under #1 featured, Glee, Glee Spoilers, TV News
Earlier today Fox gave us a sneak peek at next Tuesday’s episode of GLEE. And what a week to get the episode early…
Honestly, I’m very happy to have this moment in time to share some episode teasers with you all, as I fear there might not be many of you left standing after “The First Time” airs.
There’s been a lot (and I mean a LOT) of build up within the GLEE fandom about this episode, and that’s always dangerous because reality (even fake reality) rarely ever lives up to expectations. But I will say that as a fellow GLEEk who was has been waiting for this ‘Election Day’ episode like the rest of you, I was left satisfied and smiling (yes, I know, that’s what she said…and Finn said and Blaine said…)
Before we get going, I must share the same disclaimer I share before all my GLEE teaser posts…
Dear fellow die-hard GLEEks, in the words of Quinn Fabray – this post is all about the teasin’ and not necessarily the pleasin’. While I hope to share a few tidbits that will get you more excited about next week’s episode I’m not about spoiling major plot points for you.
If you are the type of fan that is going to be annoyed with me for not spilling everything there is to know then it’s probably best that you NOT read this and just wait to watch the episode yourself on Tuesday.
On the other hand, if you are a fan that has a wavering line when it comes to what constitutes a spoiler, then you might want to stay away too as it’s not my intention to ruin the episode in any capacity for you.
Now that we have that settled, let’s get down to business.
Megan Mullally Joins BREAKING IN

Filed under Breaking In, TV News
Now that BREAKING IN is back from the dead, we’re finally getting a hint at what to expect when the show returns this spring — Fox just announced that Megan Mullally has joined the cast as the new boss of Contra Security.
Say what?!
It seems that when the show returns, a corporate conglomerate takes control of Contra. There is no way Oz (Contra’s former owner) is going to take this lightly, and I can’t wait to see what kind of power struggles he gets into with his new boss.
BREAKING IN officially goes back into production in January. Is anyone else super excited what they come up with next?

FRINGE: Jeff Pinkner and J.H. Wyman Talk Peter’s Return, William Bell, Ratings and More

Filed under #1 featured, Fringe
Happy FRINGE Friday, guys! And guess what? No baseball is going to stop tonight’s episode from airing!
It’s been a few weeks since our last original episode, but as you may remember, Peter has returned to the series in solid form — but, um, no one knew who he was.
So where do they go from here? I talked with FRINGE executive producers Jeff Pinkner and J.H Wyman about Peter’s return, whether William Bell is still alive, if they have something special already planned for episode 19 and what the ratings means for a potential fifth season…
