Beauty and the Beast has its Belle! Ruth Bradley is relatively unknown on this side of the pond, but she’s soon to appear in the mini-series Titanic. She joins Darius Campbell and Chris Egan.

A first look at Community as it resumes in 2 weeks! Malcolm Jamal Warner returns in the episode entitled, “Urban Matrimony and the Sandwich Arts.” Are there wedding bells in the air for Shirley and Andre?

Adam Baldwin is guest starring on Castle!?!?! This news just made my night! Nathan Fillion has been great about adding Firefly nods to the show, but this tops them! It will put the two Firefly members together for the first time since Serenity. Baldwin will play Detective Ethan Slaughter, from the city’s gang unit, who lands a case Castle is desperate to follow.

Too bad that it’s only his voice, but I’m sure it will make Sheldon happy! The Star Trek legend’s voice will be in the March 29 episode of The Big Bang Theory.

Well, it looks like the CW has realized how poorly Ringer is doing in the ratings, and so is hurrying up to finish the season (airing originals every week) before the May sweeps. Unless the show has a miraculous ratings recovery in the next month and a half, the April 17 season finale will most likely be a series finale. I wonder how well the show would have done on CBS (the network that originally picked it up).
Taking its place at 9PM April 24 will be the six-part Canadian drama, the L.A. Complex, a nice consolation prize for Whedonverse fans, since as I previously mentioned on this site, Jewel Staite stars. Buffy is out, Kaylee (from Firefly) is in!
Far much more than a preview look at this coming Sunday’s “Grumpy” episode (featuring Amy Acker and a reappearance by Emilie de Ravin’s Belle), this article answers lots of huge questions about the show!
First, August is most likely not the author of Henry’s book, but he did add stuff – for his own benefit. Is he trying to write himself into the story so he can be a part of the fairy tale world? Was he there before and somehow got written out?
Second, the show is trying to get the Huntsman (Jamie Dornan) back for a guest episode! While it’s pretty unlikely he’ll come back to Storybrooke, most of the fairy tale flashbacks we’ve seen so far occur while he’s being held captive and heartless by the Evil Queen. Makes sense for him to show up in another flashback at some point.
Third, we’ll learn why the Evil Queen hates Snow White in episode 18 (which IMDb says is entitled “Stable Boy”), set to air in April.
No real answers on when David and Mary Margaret will get together or who Henry’s father is, so I’m guessing those won’t come up until the end of this season or sometime next season.

So good to be getting Bones scoop again! This time, Brennan’s books are being made into a movie (hinted at years ago – Richard Castle must have better connections with the movie industry since his books took far less time to make it to film). Ashley Jones and Jordan Belfi are set to play the movie versions of Brennan’s characters Dr. Kathy Reichs and Special Agent Andy Lister. They of course are based on Booth and Brennan, much the same way that Castle’s characters Jameson Rook and Nikki Heat are based on himself and Beckett. (Now to just get McGee’s novels, written as Thom E. Gemcity, made into a movie.)

A cool look at the season finale by show creator Jeff Eastin. Love all the behind the scenes info on how the episode was thought up, and how this will impact Peter and Neal’s relationship. Hard to imagine that this is their most explosive cliffhanger to date!

Fox has decided to juggle its spring schedule around like crazy! Bones is moving to Mondays at 8 after Alcatraz finishes its initial run – yay for getting Bones back 3 days earlier than anticipated (April 2 versus April 5), but boo for competing shows. House will move back to its old spot of 9PM on Mondays the same day, and have all new episodes until the two-hour retrospective/finale May 21.
Thursdays, The Finder will air a spring finale March 8, and return at an undetermined time. Its rating indicate that it’s likely to be canceled, but I’d be happy if it continued to share a timeslot with Bones. It feels like a summer show. I love the crossover episodes and would like to see more of them (I expect Isabel will show up on Bones the next time a U.S. Marshall is needed).
Touch will premiere Thursday, March 22, at 9, taking the typical Bones/The Finder slot after American Idol.

Well, so much for Elementary being simply an American remake of Sherlock! Having a woman play the role of Watson is sure to make Elementary a very different show. Farewell to bromance. Hello to will-they-or-won’t-they tension typical of Bones, Castle, and the like. Or maybe the show will adopt Warehouse 13’s buddy partnership to make room for Adler. Will Moriarty try to sweep Watson off her feet to get to Sherlock?
My initial opinion of the idea is that the show will either lose too much of its uniqueness by making Elementary similar to other procedurals, or try too hard to “reinvent” Holmes and Watson that it becomes a caricature.

So glad Robert California is leaving; I hated his character. Maybe his ex-wife will take his place? Or the actor I really wanted out of all the guest spots – Jim Carrey?
People are clamoring for The Office’s demise, but unless Smash stabilizes soon, the long-running comedy will still be NBC’s highest-rated scripted show. And with such a large ensemble cast, quite a few of the main characters would have to leave before the show itself was in danger.

Well, I had no interest in The Carrie Diaries until this announcement – Robb is such a great actress that I hope the pilot/show will be worth her talents. And I’m glad she looks nothing like Sarah Jessica Parker.

This is the second reoccurring character from Once Upon a Time who has landed a role in a pilot. Here’s hoping that they’re able to exit the show with purpose if their shows make it to series (or still have time to pop up in Storybrooke occasionally).
By the way, the last name Esposito always makes me think of Castle, which is airing its own fairy tale episode tonight!

Sad that there wasn’t an Once Upon a Time episode yesterday? Here’s a look ahead at the March 11th episode, which finally gets to the story of Little Red Riding Hood (she and Granny have been around since the pilot, so it’s about time!). In the fairy tale world, Red meets Snow White after the Huntsman lets her go. In Storybrooke, Ruby quits her job at Granny’s and Emma hires her as an assistant.

Not sure about this casting – but since the original Beast was supposed to be a spoiled brat before his transformation, maybe the full-of-himself grin works. I’m guessing we won’t see much of his face under the makeup anyhow.
