The Finder | 8pm on Fox

Meanwhile, an attractive FBI agent (guest star Kelly Carlson) is also looking for the same man, and she tries to get as much information about him from Walter as she can. Also, Leo’s memories of his deceased wife and daughter bring new meaning to the case and the family they’re trying to reunite.

FRINGE Episode 19: John Noble Teases ‘Letters of Transit’

It’s almost here FRINGE fans.

After months and months of wondering what the heck the FRINGE team could do to top a musical noir episode and the animated hour, you’re just a matter of hours away from finding out what they have in store for you. (And yes, it’s going to break your brain a little lot.)

To properly prep you for the hour, we’re going to have a full day worth of posts, including many of your favorite FRINGE stars teasing what you can expect from the episode.

First up? John Noble (Walter)!

I spoke with Noble at the grand opening of Warner Bros. Television Group’s Television: Out of the Box exhibit on display at the Los Angeles-based Paley Center, so apologies for the background noise, but he does have a few nice teases for you guys…

PARKS & RECREATION fans, our long national nightmare is over — the series is finally back tonight! (A little overly dramatic? Sure. But warranted.)

Henry Ian Cusick Talks SCANDAL’s Twists and Turns and His FRINGE Guest Spot

It’s certainly not a bad week to be a fan of Henry Ian Cusick.

Not only can you catch him on one of my new favorite shows, ABC’s SCANDAL, where he’s a series regular (playing Stephen, a member of Olivia’s crisis management team), but Cusick is also heading over to Fox’s FRINGE for a top-secret spot in Friday’s infamous episode 19.

Given everything he has going on, I hopped on the phone with Cusick to find out what he could tease about both of his projects…

FRINGE Episode 19: ‘Letters of Transit’ Video Preview

I’m going to do something a bit unusual here…I’m posting FRINGE videos I don’t think I entirely want you guys to watch.

Yeah, I know it sounds weird, and I’m guessing those of you who do want to watch the clips of tomorrow night’s 19th episode will go ahead and watch them anyway (which is why I included the three scenes below…that, and the selfish part of me wants to hear what those of you who do choose to watch them think of what is going down), but I really feel like this is an episode where it would be best to go into it as spoiler-free as possible.

So, I said what I wanted to, and if you still want to watch, I’m dying to hear what you think…

As if THE SECRET CIRCLE’s Cassie hasn’t had enough trauma lately, the secret about the identity of the other Blackwell child is getting closer to being exposed.

So what’s a girl to do?

I recently traveled up to the Vancouver set of THE SECRET CIRCLE and sat down with series star Britt Robertson (Cassie) — yes, we are on the set of Cassie’s bedroom in the video below — and we talked about her favorite part of the set, plus Robertson shed some light about what the reveal of the other Blackwell child might do to Cassie.

Take a look!

BONES: ‘Warrior in the Wuss’ Video Preview

As you’ll see in these four BONES preview clips from “Warrior in the Wuss,” it sure seems like no one is having the best day.

Then, Brennan’s big idea to have Parker bond with his little sister gets vetoed by Booth. And not only that, but a weird secret about Angela and Hodgins’ bedroom is revealed and it seems the Jeffersonian is strapped for cash. Fun times all around.

SUBURGATORY: Jeremy Sisto Teases the Impact of Alicia Silverstone’s Eden

In tonight’s brand new episode of SUBURGATORY, Jeremy Sisto’s George makes a new lady friend…played by Sisto’s former CLUELESS costar Alicia Silverstone.

I spoke with Sisto at the grand opening of Warner Bros. Television Group’s Television: Out of the Box exhibit on display at the Los Angeles-based Paley Center — during one of the carpet’s most hectic times…he legitimately had to sneak in front of another interview and duck under their camera to get to where I was located, so apologies for the madness in the video — about Silverstone’s guest spot, what it means for George (and Dallas) and more…
