It looks like Bob Gunton will be back as Ethan Kanin next season. It seems Kanin will have a new job . . . Secretary of State under President Taylor. (Michael Ausiello)

90210

AnnaLynne McCord tells us the 90210 cast just found out last week who Annie hit, and “It’s really bad.” As for Naomi in the upcoming second season, AnnaLynne teases, “Obviously there was a horrible ending for poor Naomi. She is over Liam, and she is over Annie. She goes through the first half of the season really trying to prove that to herself. I don’t think she’s really over him, but we’ll see that push and pull.” Speaking of Liam, Matt Lanter spills, “We’re going to get into his family life a little bit more. It’s 90210 so I’m sure there are going to be some new romances and some jealousy and backstabbing.” (Watch With Kristin)

CSI: Miami

Adam Rodriguez will be back next season, so it’s safe to say Delko survives. (Michael Ausiello)

Rory Cochrane talked about another Speedle cameo was in his future. “I can’t really talk about it,” he said. “They talked to me about something that I cannot get into details about . . . I did come back once as a figment of Delko’s imagination, but I am pretty sure that is it for me on that show. I told them not to kill me but they didn’t take my advice.” (Michael Ausiello)

Desperate Housewives

Looks like Bree (Marcia Cross) isn’t giving up on her adulterous ways. Kyle MacLachlan says of the sixth season: “They’ve brought back Richard Burgi and he’s going to come between us a little bit. They have some things coming up. They haven’t told me exactly what’s going to happen, but there are going to be some sparks.” (Watch With Kristin)

Entourage

The July 12 season premiere focuses almost entirely on my favorite couple: Ari and Lloyd. Basically, Lloyd wants a promotion and Ari is having none of it. (Michael Ausiello)

Friday Night Lights

In addition to Kyle Chandler and Connie Britton, full-time returnees include Jesse Plemons, Taylor Kitsch, Aimee Teegarden, and Jeremy Sumpter. Adrianne Palicki, Minka Kelly, and Zach Gilford will likely be back for short-term farewell arcs. (Michael Ausiello)

Gossip Girl

Chuck and Blair aren’t breaking up any time soon. (Watch With Kristin)

Harper’s Island

Splash – Airing June 27, 2009
After being rocked by more deaths and the disappearance of another friend, the group fights back and is more determined than ever to track down the island’s killer. (CBS)

Heroes

The show is looking for a young actor to play an 11-year-old Nathan. (Michael Ausiello)

House

The Princeton Plainsboro that House left in the season finale will not be the same one he returns to next fall. “How [the hospital] works when he comes back will be different,” teases executive producer Katie Jacobs. “A doctor can’t check into a mental institution and just walk back into his job like nothing happened. We will not start forsaking reality. This [story] will have consequences.” (Michael Ausiello)

We won’t see much of Cameron and Chase’s home life next season. According to Katie Jacobs. “I don’t know that we will show any more of their private lives than we have anyone else’s. The hospital stuff is first and foremost for us and everything we show furthers those story lines. I don’t think lovey-dovey, at-home relations is what people watch our show for.” (Michael Ausiello)

A lot of this season has to do with House (Hugh Laurie) working his way back to sanity and realizing his feelings for Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein). To answer your question specifically, David Shore says, “I think she does know. Actually, we had some discussion about it. I think him standing on the balcony, screaming out ‘I slept with Lisa Cuddy!’ [gave it away].” (Watch With Kristin)

Leverage

The premier includes a car explosion, multiple gunshots, and a bone-crushing fight scene. And it definitely ends with a bang. Expect one character to get shot with not one or two, but three, bullets lodged in their chest. (Michael Ausiello)

Lincoln Heights

Russell Hornsby, who plays Eddie Sutton, tells us the family goes through some growing pains in season four: “It’s time for Eddie to start letting his kids grow up,” he says. “I think that’s where he is at the beginning of season four, with this notion that his kids are growing and they’re getting older.” Nicki Michaeux (his wife, Jenn) adds, “This is the most challenging season for the kids. They are the most headstrong individuals. And they’re doing all sorts of things we’ll all see over the course of the season. It’s just really challenging for the parents this year.” (Watch With Kristin)

Nip/Tuck

In the series finale on June 12, someone will get left at the altar. (Michael Ausiello)

Nurse Jackie

Peter Facinelli’s character Dr. Cooper is said to have sexual Tourette’s syndrome. It doesn’t rear its funny head again until episode five, and then again in episode six. The plot thickens on Dr. Cooper as we learn he was raised by two lesbian mothers (played by Blythe Danner and Swoosie Kurtz) who show up in episode six. (Watch With Kristin)

Private Practice

KaDee Strickland has confirmed her return for the third season, but it did come down to the wire. Says KaDee, “Until I got my pickup letter, I didn’t think I was coming back like the rest of us. I think Amy [Brenneman] got hers; I’m sure she did. It should be an interesting thing to see what they do when we come back.” (Watch With Kristin)

Raising The Bar

Producers are adding a young, idealistic female lawyer to the cast in a recurring capacity. (Michael Ausiello)

Royal Pains

Christine Ebersole, who plays Hank’s eccentric client, Ms. Newberg, talks about her favorite storyline coming up in July. “I give a Bark Mitzvah to my dog. The dogs are so cute in their little yarmulkes! Hundreds of people sit poolside. The rabbi reads from the Torah, and all the guests end up ill.” (Watch With Kristin)

Saving Grace

As you saw in the season premiere last week, Butch is now engaged. Bailey Chase tells us it’s not going to be easy though: “Butch is looking to potentially end his bachelor ways in season three,” he says. “The rest is just to protect and serve.” (Watch With Kristin)

Scrubs

Bill Lawrence talking about the new season of Scrubs: “[The flash-forward epilogue] just showed J.D. and Elliott together, and I’ll stay true to that. Those two will still be together. But [next season] won’t be about tracing that relationship… There’s no possible way the show will succeed if it’s just more trials and tribulations of J.D. Zach is basically doing [an arc] to help us transition to a new show. It’s like if Hawkeye had done AfterMASH.” (Michael Ausiello)

True Blood

We can tell you that the creature appears in the June 28 episode and brutally attacks Sookie (Anna Paquin). It’s got a bull head, a half animal, half human body, gnarly claws and is poisonous like a Komodo dragon. And it almost kills Sookie. But Eric and Bill (Stephen Moyer) team to help make her as good as new. Oh, and we soon find out the murdered voodoo lady from the first episode of the season was a victim of this same creature. (Watch With Kristin)

This Sunday, Sookie (Anna Paquin) discovers that Eric (Alexander Skarsgård) has been keeping Lafayette (Nelsan Ellis) in his basement and freaks out on him. Naturally. In exchange for Lafayette’s release, Sookie agrees to head to Dallas to find some missing vampires. She doesn’t end up going alone: Bill and Jessica accompany her. (Watch With Kristin)

We have to wait a bit to see Evan Rachel Wood as True Blood’s 400-year-old lesbian vampire queen Sophie-Anne. She’s slated to appear in episodes 11 and 12 on August 30 and September 6, respectively, and sources tell us, “She may appear in future episodes next season.” [Editor's Note: Duh, the queen doesn't appear this early in the series but she does have a large arc over a few of the books] (Watch With Kristin)

Ugly Betty

Daniel Eric Gold, who plays Matt, is not only returning, but he’s been promoted to a full-fledged series regular. Betty producers are already cooking up a fresh obstacle for Betty and Matt, and rumor has it they want him to be lovable and blue collarish. (Michael Ausiello)
