BEN AND KATE: Jane Seymour and David Hornsby to Guest Star

Ever wonder what kind of parents could have spawned BEN AND KATE’s BJ? It seems like we’re about to find out: Fox has confirmed that Jane Seymour will guest star on an upcoming episode as BJ’s mother, Wendy.

According to TVLine — who was first to report the news — BJ’s mother is a “sexy, middle-class Brit with plenty of affectations and bourgeois attitudes, will discover that her daughter is keeping some secrets from her.”

Also in that episode? IT’S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA/HOW TO BE A GENTLEMAN star David Hornsby will be guest starring as an old pal of Ben’s…who got rich off an idea Ben sold him. Uh oh…

BEN AND KATE airs Tuesdays at 8:30 PM on Fox.

CBS Books ELEMENTARY For Post-Super Bowl Slot

ELEMENTARY is getting a major vote of confidence from CBS — in addition to the series already receiving a full-season order, the network has given the modern-day adaptation of Sherlock Holmes the coveted post-Super Bowl slot.

In case you haven’t been keeping up, here’s CBS’ description of the show: “ELEMENTARY stars Jonny Lee Miller as eccentric, mischievous detective Sherlock Holmes and Lucy Liu as Dr. Joan Watson, a former surgeon turned sober companion.  Following his fall from grace in London and a stint in rehab, Sherlock escapes to Manhattan where his wealthy father forces him to live with his worst nightmare – a sobriety coach. Now running free in New York solving crimes, it’s simple deduction that he’s going to need someone to keep him grounded, and it’s elementary that it’s a job for Watson.”

Are you excited for ELEMENTARY to get the post-Super Bowl spot?

CASTLE: Director Jonathan Frakes on his ‘The Final Frontier’ Cameo, a ‘Priceless’ Castle/Beckett Moment, and More

CASTLE has never been shy about embracing its nerdy roots, and this Monday’s episode, “The Final Frontier,” boldly goes where the show hasn’t gone before — to a science-fiction convention.

To helm the hour, CASTLE enlisted a director with a good amount of sci-fi cred: Jonathan Frakes, whom many know as STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION’s Riker. (Frakes also directed the season 2 episode “Kill the Messenger.”)

I spoke with Frakes about directing “The Final Frontier,” making a cameo in the hour, the challenges they faced, and more…

FRINGE Recap: ‘An Origin Story’

Back when Peter Bishop was wiped from existence at the end of FRINGE season 3, some fans (including LOST co-creator Damon Lindelof) believed the way he’d be worked back into the show would be by him becoming an Observer. Heck, Joshua Jackson (Peter) even came out at that year’s Comic-Con panel dressed in full Observer gear. (Though, he lamented not being able to shave his head for the occasion.)

Leave it to FRINGE to zig when you expect it to zag, even when it comes to its own series finale date.

Fox Cuts Order of Midseason Series THE GOODWIN GAMES

When Fox released their midseason lineup last month, the new Becki Newton/Scott Foley comedy, THE GOODWIN GAMES was missing from the schedule. While there’s still no premiere date for the series (which is from the writers of HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER), Fox has confirmed reports that the episode order has been decreased from 13 to 7.

A rep for the show cited the full season pick ups of BEN AND KATE and THE MINDY PROJECT as a reason the network will need less episodes from THE GOODWIN GAMES going forward. (THE MINDY PROJECT and NEW GIRL also both received additional installment orders last month.)

Are you bummed THE GOODWIN GAMES is getting less episodes than planned? Or are you just hoping it gets a premiere date soon?
