Ask the Addict: Spoilers on FRINGE, CASTLE, BROTHERS & SISTERS, LIFE UNEXPECTED & More!
As promised, Thursday’s FRINGE completely lived up to the hype. Care to give me any clues as to what we can expect next? — Bill
The TV Addict: How’s this for a doozy… actress Blair Brown accidentally let slip a really interesting piece of intel on our recent visit to the set of FRINGE? One that might infer that Nina Sharp and William Bell may not be as close as we’ve been led to believe. “Communication is what it is, but it’s not like she [Nina] is taking instructions from him because she doesn’t hear from him,” said the actress. “What we’ll come to discover soon is that Nina tries to contact him [William Bell] but we’re not sure what comes back.”
Thursday’s FRINGE was seriously off the hook! How long will we have to wait for Peter to learn the truth about his origins? — Mandy
The TV Addict: Based on a recent conference call with actor John Noble, who promised that when Peter finds out “we literally tumble into these extraordinary last two or three episodes,” we’re going to go out on a limb and calculate that Thursday May 6th is precisely when Peter will learn the truth. Of course if we were any good at math, we probably wouldn’t be sitting in our pyjamas blogging on a Monday! Just sayin’

Today’s TV Addict Top 5: Thing You Didn’t Know About GOOD LUCK CHARLIE Star Jason Dolley
If the name Jason Dolley isn’t a household name, odds are that your household does not include a bunch of rugrats running around. For if it did, we have a feeling you’d be more than familiar with the affable young actor who has been a staple on the Disney Channel since breaking onto the scene in Saving Shiloh.
Now all grown up, well almost, Dolley will next be seen in tonight’s Disney Channel premiere of GOOD LUCK CHARLIE. A family comedy reminiscent of ABC’s TGIF friday lineup where he’ll play oldest brother P.J. who alongside his two siblings must care for their baby sister Charlotte (“Charlie”) when their parents return to work. And why we’re proud to present five things you didn’t know about the him.
He doesn’t want to grow up, he’s a Disney kid!
Unlike some other Disney actors who shall remain nameless, Dolley is in absolutely no rush to move on to more adult roles. “Oh my gosh, really, being part of the Disney family has been an incredible experience,” explained Dolley, as we quickly glanced through his imdb profile to realize just how much he has to be thankful for. “Even before CORY IN THE HOUSE, I did a part in a Disney Channel original movie, then I got CORY after which they basically gave me MINUTEMEN, I didn’t even have to read for it, same thing for HATCHING PETE. Disney loves to do thing in the family, and it’s been awesome.”
