THE VAMPIRE DIARIES: Kat Graham Teases Season 4 Will ‘Blow Your Mind’

Back in May, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES star Kat Graham (Bonnie) teased that people had no idea how huge the season finale of her show was going to be, and man, was she correct.

And now, it’s months later, we’ve survived the hiatus, and when I spoke with Graham recently, she indicated that things are as crazy as ever.

Take a look at her teases about the fallout from Bonnie’s deal with Klaus, how she’s dealing with Elena’s transition, why “everything stops” when she’s reading her scripts, and so much more…

It seems like we’re set to learn more about the dating life THE NEW NORMAL’s Bryan had before he settled down with David: THE NEW NORMAL co-creator Ryan Murphy tweeted that WHITE COLLAR’s Matt Bomer will be guest starring in an upcoming episode as Bryan’s ex-boyfriend.

No further details are known at this time, but this isn’t the first time Bomer has collaborated with Murphy — Bomer appeared in season 3 of GLEE as Blaine’s brother and will appear in the upcoming movie, THE NORMAL HEART, which Murphy directed.

GREY’S ANATOMY Stages SCREAM 3 Reunion: Neve Campbell to Guest Star

With Derek going through some problems on GREY’S ANATOMY, now is perfect time to introduce another one of his sisters: ABC has confirmed that Neve Campbell will appear on the medical drama.

According to TVLine (who was first to report the casting), Campbell will be sticking around for a few episodes, but there’s no word on which of the two as-yet-introduced Shepherd sisters she’ll be playing.

On a geeky note, this marks a SCREAM reunion for Campbell (who played Sidney in all four SCREAM movies) and her new on-screen TV brother (Patrick Dempsey — who plays Derek on GA — played Detective Kincaid in SCREAM 3). Odds are good it won’t be acknowledged, but I’m excited about it.

SUPERNATURAL: Jared Padalecki Teases ‘Hijinks’ in ‘What’s Up, Tiger Mommy?’

As if Dean and Sam didn’t have their hands full with trying to keep Kevin safe on SUPERNATURAL, in tonight’s brand new episode, they also add Kevin’s mother (played by Lauren Tom) into the mix.

When SUPERNATURAL star Jared Padalecki (Sam) talked with reporters on set recently, he indicated that addition of Kevin’s mother will be a little tough for the Winchester brothers.

“We’ve had Bobby and we’ve had Cas and we’ve had some of the roadhouse hunters…but there’s a ‘tiger mommy’ forced upon us, so we find ourselves in the situation where we’re like, ‘We don’t want to buckle our seat belts, we don’t want to just chill out. Let us do what we do, we know what we’re doing,'” Padalecki teased in the video below. “But it’s some nice hijinks.”

Take a look at what else he had to tease about the hour!

ARROW: Stephen Amell Talks About if Things Have Changed For Him and the Different Aspects of Oliver

Tonight, one of my favorite pilots of the entire season bows — The CW’s ARROW.

But please don’t let your preconceived notions about what the show might be dissuade you from tuning in. Yes, the show is based on the comic book character Oliver Queen/Green Arrow, but no, you don’t have to be well-versed in the comics (or any of the other adaptations) to be able to jump right in. The show isn’t just for self-described nerds (something I would admittedly call myself): there are complicated family dynamics, romances, and yes, some action in the pilot.

So, with that being said, I spoke with ARROW star Stephen Amell (Oliver) about whether he feels like things have changed for him yet, plus playing the different aspects of Oliver’s life…
