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.
 
Intriguing Fact We Didn’t Necessarily Need To Know: PROJECT RUNWAY guru Tim Gunn hasn’t had sex in 29 years. Try unknowing that!

Most Easily Made Mistake: Admit it. When you read articles that said “MOB WIVES’ Big Ang was once a… ” you assumed the sentence would end with “man” not, as it turned out, “cocaine dealer.” 
 
Why Reality Television Needs To Die: NBC will air a FEAR FACTOR episode involving a challenge in which people must drink donkey semen. Oh, and wash it down with urine.
