Blind Item: Here Comes the Bride!
If there is one thing May Sweeps can traditionally be counted on for — aside that is from a surprisingly large number of suspicious deaths, pregnancies and breakups — it’s weddings… and lots of ’em!
Which is probably why it shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise that one smarter-than-your-average Showrunner has decided to forgo the traditional fight for venues, florists and musicians (Seriously, do you have any idea how hard it is to find a talented harpist in Tinsletown?) by jumping the gun!

ONCE UPON A TIME First Look: “Skin Deep”
Dying to find out what happens next following tonight’s doozy of an episode of ONCE UPON A TIME? Well, err… if you promise not to shoot the messenger, we’ve got some good and bad news for you. Getting the negative out of the way first, thanks to some not-so-super-football game this coming Sunday, fans will have to wait until February 12th for the next brand new episode of ONCE.

GOSSIP GIRL! GLEE! DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES! The TV Addict Week in Rewind
Most Manipulative Match: Conspiring with a priest to destroy Blair’s marriage means it’s official… GOSSIP GIRL’s Chuck is hellbound!
Least Shocking Spoiler: Entertainment Weekly reported that a “major character” would be killed off DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES in March. Not particularly earth-shattering given that the entire show will bite the dust a few months later.
Speaking Of Wisteria Lane… : Why the heck, you ask, are we still watching this increasingly lifeless show as it limps toward the grave? Completion issues.
Best Gene Pool Ever: Matt Bomer of WHITE COLLAR has been cast to play the brother of GLEE’s Darren Criss. [Read more…]
