Ask the Addict: Spoilers for GLEE, PERSON OF INTEREST, SCANDAL, CASTLE & More!
In reference to your recent tweet about GLEE’s fourth season premiere, I’m hoping you might elaborate on why you think it’s the show’s strongest episode since its premiere? — Linda
The TV Addict: Where do I begin? Working my way backwards, the final scene of tonight’s season premiere that features two characters immensley integral to the show’s success sent the type of chills down my spine usually reserved for when something on the small screen really hits home. What’s more, the episode doesn’t rely so much on a gimmick, theme, or artist from which to generate story but rather by placing the proper emphasis on real characters and their relatable journeys. Which is to say, I found myself rooting or Rachel Berry for the first time in an awfully long time, I was genuinely curious about the plight of new editions Marley (Melissa Benoist) and Jake (Jacob Artist).
This longtime Gleek is somewhat concerned that all these new characters will be stealing to spotlight from the original cast of characters we’ve come to know and love. Thoughts? — Dylan
The TV Addict: While fans of Puck and Quinn most definitely have cause for concern, seeing as though it would appear that both of their characters have been effectively replaced by a half-brother Jake (Jacob Artist) and doppelgänger Kitty (Becca Tobin’s) respectively, Artie, Tina, Brittany and Kurt fans have absoposilutely nothing to worry about. Not only do Brittany and Artie get some of the episodes most memorable one-liners, Tina totally nails her musical number in her bid to become, as the episode title suggests, “the new Rachel.” While Kurt and his father share a scene that pretty much secure’s Burt Hummel’s entrance into the father of the year hall of fame.

REVENGE First Look: “Destiny”
Attention TV Addict!s Stop whatever it is you’re doing, clear your revengda (Yes, that’s Nolan speak for “Revenge agenda”) and get excited… because theTVaddict.com has just come across some first look photos from the much-anticipated second season premiere of REVENGE entitled “Destiny.”
According to ABC, “Destiny” promises to — in the wake of last summer’s events in the Hamptons — up the ante, with Emily planning her next move while she struggles with her heart and keeping her emotions from getting in the way of her resolve to avenge her father. According to show mastermind Mike Kelly, with whom we caught up with during a summer set visit to the Hollywood version of the Hamptons, “Destiny” is the theme of the season. “Much like I did with the pilot, where I opened with a Confucius quote that said ‘Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves,’ Season two will open with a quote about destiny. It’s an Emil quote about whether you have a hand in choosing your own destiny or whether it’s already laid out for you. This season is all about freewill versus fate.” [Read more…]
