Bones
After construction workers find the body of an archbishop whose kneecaps were surgically removed, the team is back on the case of the Widow’s Son serial killer. When Angela discovers what appears to be a victim tree in the evidence vault, the team realizes the killer employs a systematic pattern in selecting victims. With a musician and an archbishop the first to go, the team tries to predict who might be next and how they can stop the killer before he strikes again. Brennan and Booth continue to see Dr. Lance Sweets (John Francis Daley), who has some helpful psychological insights into the Widow’s Son’s motives. Meanwhile, Brennan’s brother, Russ, comes out of hiding when he finds out that his girlfriend’s daughter is extremely sick, but his appearance causes Booth to intervene with Brennan’s family once again. [Fox]
Executive producer Barry Josephson about the circumstances surrounding Booth and Bones’ big sweeps kiss (airing November 27): “It definitely stirs up some emotions. In the episode, Booth is really a live wire, because he’s having issues with his ex. And Bones is having issues with her brother and her dad. So the two of them are very raw emotionally, but I think there’s a little something more going on. And I think everybody around them knows it.” [Michael Ausiello]
A third party plays an integral role in the kiss, as does the phrase “five steamboats.” [Michael Ausiello]
Brothers and Sisters
Rebecca might not be a Walker after all. [Kristin@E!Online]
In an upcoming episode, Sarah refers to Scotty as Kevin’s boyfriend while she is out on the town with Scotty’s friends. [Kristin@E!Online]
Episode 12 is called “Compromises,” and it will put many a love storyline on the line: Jason McCallister is back (working on his brother Senator McCallister’s campaign), Kevin’s friends convince Sarah to sign her divorce papers, and Saul gets thisclose to hooking up with a guy. [Kristin@E!Online]
Chuck
Expect lots of girl-on-girl action when Sarah and Lizzie (the Pita Palace delivery girl) take each other on in a kickass battle. Also, someone’s getting engaged! [Kristin@E!Online]
At Buy More, Big Mike tells Chuck and Morgan that Chuck and his team will be trained by Morgan tomorrow, Thanksgiving, on crowd control for Black Friday. Something big goes down at the store, causing Morgan to evacuate the store and forcing CIA Cleaners to come in and clean up the mess. Bryce works with Sarah, Casey and Chuck, and he explains to them and Beckman and Graham why he sent the intersect files to Chuck. [SpoilerFix.com]
Chuck, Lester and Jeff go aboard a really big yacht with a man in a suit to install a new control system and accidentally see stacks of money being loaded into crates. The man in the suit tells them it is money raised for the billionaire yacht owner’s aid organization from a charity event, but Chuck flashes on a bill that escaped and realizes it is counterfeit. Casey goes undercover as a Roulette spinner at a casino charity event held by Lon Kurk, the billionaire, while Chuck and Sarah go as guests. Sarah accuses Chuck of faking a flash later at the party when he believes she is getting too intimate with Kurk. [SpoilerFix.com]
We flash back to 2004 to see Casey involved with a female Russian who says she is a photo-journalist. She leaves the hotel room, leaving him in bed and suddenly he hears an explosion. He runs out to find her camera blackened from the explosion and Ilsa nowhere to be found. Back in the present, Sarah says Casey’s cover is blown when Ilsa shows up alive with a Russian man named Victor Federov, who announces to the room that he is going to be her husband. Casey, Sarah and Chuck learn Ilsa is a spy and after finding a Russian-made bug, they realize her husband now knows it too, so they have to try and stop him from killing her. [SpoilerFix.com]
Criminal Minds
The tough times in Episode 11 have more to do with Danny than Danny and Lindsay. He’ll experience a devastating loss in that episode. [Michael Ausiello]
Morgan moves in with Garcia to protect her! However, that twosome doesn’t progress very far, romantically, because Nicholas Brendon (Xander) is about to join the show as a new Garcia love interest. [Kristin@E!Online]
Dirty Sexy Money
Karen and Simon will be having an affair. And Nick’s gonna find out about it. [Kristin@E!Online]
Brian is suspended from the ministry, and Carmelita is soon going to have some private eyes watching her, leading to her disappearance. [Kristin@E!Online]
ER
Kovac, Abby and baby Joe quickly make plans to go to Croatia after Luka’s father unexpectedly passes away. A husband (guest star Peter Fonda) rushes to the ER when he hears about his wife’s car accident but is shocked to meet someone from his past. Meanwhile, Julia (guest star Reiko Aylesworth) decides to hold a service to bless the ER and the patients that have been lost. [SpoilerFix.com]
Friday Night Lights
Matt Czuchry’s character’s name is Chris Kennedy; he’s a love interest for Minka Kelly’s Lyla; the two meet when she’s invited to be a guest on his Christian radio show; he’s on board for at least four episodes; and the role called for a scene in which his character gives a sermon in a real church in front of real parishioners. [Michael Ausiello]
Grey’s Anatomy
The final pre-strike episode of Grey’s will part with tradition in a major way: Someone other than Meredith will be doing the narration. The new narrator might be Callie. Also, there’s a reason for change, and it’s a tragic one. [Michael Ausiello]
it’ll be a few weeks before we see any serious movement in the Rose/Derek/Meredith triangle. Actually, make that a few months. The big turning point for these three comes at the end of Episode 11, which was originally scheduled for December but has now been postponed until 2008. Episode 11 also happens to be the final episode before Grey’s goes on its strike-imposed hiatus, so that big turning point may end up being a big cliff-hanger. It involves Meredith’s chilly reaction to a top-secret project that Derek’s been toiling over. [Michael Ausiello]
Lauren Stamile is sticking around until the last episode they shot before the strike—which is episode number 11—and she’ll be an increasingly bigger part of the plot, as Derek calls on her to help save a surgery. The good news is that this new McThorny romance is indeed a thorn in Meredith’s side — she just might realize how very badly she wants her own McDreamy ending. The bad news? According to sources, she might realize that a little too late. [Kristin@E!Online]
Joshua Jackson is no longer scheduled to come on Grey’s. Producers are hoping they can figure out another slot for him after the strike, but that’s contingent on his schedule. [Kristin@E!Online]
Heroes
Two more Heroes will die! One may stick; one may not. You could cry . . . You probably won’t. [Kristin@E!Online]
Sylar and Elle will square off! Elle will try to do her dad proud by stepping in to save the day…at a most inopportune time for Mohinder and his newfound abilities. [Kristin@E!Online]
Mohinder gets a new power! It comes in the form of a lovely little syringe, and it goes by the name of resurrection. [Kristin@E!Online]
Maya and Sylar are on the lightning-fast road to an episode of Jerry Springer. They’ll hook up, he’ll do bad things, it will be over before it even began. [Kristin@E!Online]
Journeyman
Ausiello: As you saw in the promo for next week’s episode, Livia surprises a present-day Jack in an effort to help save Dan. What the teaser didn’t show was that in Dan’s time-tripping travels, he meets a troubled young boy in 1980 who turns out to be closer to Bennett than Dan ever expected. And the investigating FBI agent (Paul Schulze) may not be who he claims to be. [Michael Ausiello]
Lost
Episode 7 is a Jin-Sun episode that features a flash-forward element. [Michael Ausiello]
Episode 6 is Juliet-centric and features the return of three deceased characters: Goodwin, Ethan, and Mr. Friendly. [Michael Ausiello]
Monk
In the holiday special episode, Monk is on the offensive against Christmas. Among other things, he accidentally reveals to a city full of children that Santa Claus is not real. This understandably disturbs the children . . . and Randy. [Kristin@E!Online]
My Name Is Earl
Creator Greg Garcia talking about the rest of this season: “We’ve got some good episodes coming up and there are some fun twists and turns with Earl in prison, including guest spots from Giovanni Ribisi and Shawn Hatosy, and Craig T. Nelson is back for two more episodes.”
October Road
The second season premiere is on Thanksgiving night at 10 p.m., so don’t forget to tune in. There’s a lot going on in Knights Ridge right now, including Hannah’s impending engagement, Owen’s impending divorce and some scary health problems for Nick’s dad. [Kristin@E!Online]
Prison Break
After raising the suspicions of the Panamanian Army, Michael experiences solitary Sona style. Bellick has the fight of his life and Susan sets her sights on Sucre as T-Bag schemes his way into the escape. [Fox]
Michael finds himself in solitary confinement and must talk his way out. His interlocutor: Sona’s new commanding officer. Meanwhile, Susan B. finds a way to keep Linc motivated; Lang has a parting gift for Mahone; Sucre makes another delivery to Sona and Susan B. makes him an offer; T-Bag makes Whistler an offer and Sofia confronts him; Bellick’s refusal to mop up a mess puts him in a very messy situation; and a mysterious American woman travels to Panama to see Michael. [Fox]
Whistler and Michael come face to face with Susan B. Whistler [and Susan B. are] tortured and forced to talk to Panamanian officials. [Fox]
When Lechero loses his authority over Sona, Sammy causes Michael’s escape plan to come crashing down; T-Bag pressures Bellick to one more fight – that will likely be his last; Lincoln and Sucre plan an explosive finish for Susan. [Fox]

Other people begin dying and are being found stuffed into snowmen. Chuck discovers the big secret Ned has been keeping from her about her father. Later, when he can’t find Chuck, he goes looking at her aunts’ house. Emerson tells Ned that Chuck needs to sort out some things and to leave her be. [SpoilerFix.com]
Scrubs
In an upcoming episode, Dr. Kelso is forced into retirement because of his age. This doesn’t sit well with Elliot and Carla, who decide to try and save his job. [Kristin@E!Online]
In “My Princess” (which is directed by Zach Braff), Dr. Cox tells his son a fairy tale, with the doctors from Sacred Heart portraying the characters. J.D. is the idiot, Elliot is a princess, Dr. Cox is the noble knight, the Janitor is a giant, and Turk and Carla are a two-headed creature called Turla. I hear they went all out for this episode, building a forest set and bringing in horses and other animals. [Kristin@E!Online]
The Closer
Season four won’t return until this summer, but to tide us over, look for a Christmas special Dec. 3 on TNT. Brenda and Fritz spend their holiday vacation ferrying a wanted fugitive from Atlanta to Los Angeles in Clay and Willie Ray’s RV. There’s some funny, courtesy of some Perry Como CDs, and some sad, especially in a scene where Brenda explains to her mother that she’s “a professional liar.” [Kristin@E!Online]
The Riches
Sam gets his first kiss—from a girl who is intrigued when she catches him applying lipstick. [Kristin@E!Online]
