It’s about that time again.
And I’m particularly excited going into this weekend because I’m days away from making my maiden voyage to Canada. (No, not to track the history of Robin Sparkles.) That’s right, my little maple leaves, I’m headed north to visit the sets of Once Upon a Time, Alcatraz, Supernatural, and The Secret Circle. Exciting, right? So send me your questions for the stars of those shows ASAP!
And remember to be sending me your questions (via e-mail or Twitter!) on shows new and returning, reactions to buzzy episodes of your favorite shows, and your general ponderings! (Y’all had a great batch of questions this week!) Until next week!
‘HIMYM’: READER QUESTIONS ANSWERED
It’s no secret I’ve been mildly obsessed with How I Met Your Mother lately. And judging by the caliber and depth of your questions, I’m not alone! So while chatting with creator Carter Bays about last week’s episode, I threw in a few of your questions as well! The fruits of your labors are below!
When watching the first two episodes of HIMYM, I noticed something in one of Ted’s flash forwards. In one scene, Marshall is standing at a table, gambling, with Barney by his side. In that scene, Marshall is wearing a t-shirt that says, “Marshall and Steph 4 Ever.” I hit rewind multiple times just to be sure. (Thank you DVR). What does this mean? Are Marshall and Lilly going to have a girl? – TessK
I wouldn’t jump to that conclusion, but the conclusion you can jump to: The gang is in Atlantic City! “There is a fantastic story that I’ll just say is drawn from one of our writer’s lives around that T-shirt and we will explain the t-shirt later in the season,” Bays teases. “They’re in Atlantic City, and if you notice, [there's a moment that] goes by really fast and they’re actually playing the game that Barney played in the Atlantic City episode from season 2, I believe. We packed a lot of hidden imagery into that — well, not hidden imagery — but we planned out that stage tableau very carefully. At the end of the season you’ll go back and see it and it will all make sense.”What I REALLY want to know now is: the night that Ted nearly slept with Robin while waiting for Victoria to call — what WAS she wanting to talk about that night? I don’t think we ever got an answer to that. I bring it up now because it makes me wonder if she was calling to break up with Ted so she could see Klaus. — Remy
“That might have been it,” says Bays. “Just by virtue of it only being a 22 minute story, there’s a lot of stuff that we wrote and weren’t able to include.” In sum: Could be! We may never know. On second thought…Is this the last we’re going to see of Victoria? — Abby
“I think we could say fairly conclusively that I’m hoping we have not seen the last of Victoria,” says Bays. “I hope there’s more to the story. We have some stuff in mind possibly, we’re still sort of figuring it out.” All together now: WOOHOO!
‘GLEE’: ‘ASIAN F’ GETS AN ‘A’
I’ve been accused of over-hyping things in the past, and at the risk of doing it again, I will say that after watching next week’s episode (and loving last week’s), I feel like Glee has found its way again! What I liked most about “Asian F” was that it packed a subtle emotional punch — it didn’t go for the overly dramatic. The episode took a simple concept (stress and high expectations) and paired it with a lovely human story that gives us new perspective on the kids — namely Mike Chang (who might become your new favorite male Gleek by the end of the hour!) and Mercedes. Elsewhere in the ep, Wemma fans will have plenty to chew on when we meet Emma’s parents and delve deep into her backstory, complete with a little info on the origins of her OCD. (Plus, we learn a dirty secret about Schue!) I loved this one, Gleeks, and I think you might, too. (Not enough? Click here to read Tim Stack’s take on the ep!)
As a Canadian I send out an official Bienvenue to you!! Hope you enjoy your time with us : D

FRANK!!! Thanks for answering the FRINGE question. Come back Frank
Psst……..majorly is not a word.
Hey guys, Quinn proposes to Debra in Dexter’s season six premiere episode, but before he gets the chance there is a hold-up in the restaurant and Debra shoots everyone. She is the internet celebrity.
Also, Dexter has sex with Tricia at his High School Reunion. Angel’s sister (the babysitter) is ridiculously hot and there is a body in the premiere with it’s intestines cut out (thanks, Edward James Olmos). It has been replaced with seven snakes. Freaky, freaky stuff.
All of the above is real “scoop”, makes this writer of this article look like they don’t know what they’re talking about.
A$$HOLE!!!!! It is only permissible to talk about an episode AFTER it airs.
Number rule about trolls is that you do not feed them!
Then don’t read articles in the spoiler room dumb ass
Oh, big whoop, you’ve seen the leaked premiere episode.
You just want to one-up the legitimate entertainment journalist who’s actually seen the episodes way before you have but has only given scoops of info so as to not spoil the series. The point of these spoiler articles is not to ruin the show’s surprises for everybody (which you just have done) but to give us a taste of what’s to come as we wait.
You need to put a $1 in the douch jar.
Dexter doest have sex with the girl. She Gives him oral.
FYI: watching a leaked ep & spoiling it isn’t “real
Scoop” Sandra’s spoilers are done in such a way to keep fans guessing. That’s how real scoops are done. You’re just a d0ucheb@g who watched a leaked
Ep. Nothing special there.
Love Parks and Rec and love Ben and Leslie! This season is off to a beautiful start.
la guerta and batista have divorced. la guerta is made captain after she finds her boss’s name in a vice madam’s black book. she then recommends batista for lieutenant. also dexter is injured in the very first scene(or is he).
Spoiler Alert:
Tuesday at 9:01 pm after yet another disappointing over-hyped episode you (like me) are going to wonder why you continue wasting an hour of your life each week watching Glee holding onto false hope that it will get better.
Glee is the gayest show in the world! and I’m not saying this bc I’m a hater
In next weeks episode, Lea Michele’s character joins the track team and enters her first race..and wins by a nose!
Is she going to sing thru that?
I loved the first 13 episodes of Glee, but then it went downhill from there. I started DVRing it, and then fast forwarding through all the drama and sermonizing to get to the musical performances, then I just stopped watching it altogether. In between, I’d watch an episode that was touted by some as being “the old Glee” and ended up disappointed. So, sorry, it may be back to its heart this year, but my heart has already moved on.
Does anyone else find the humor in all these ‘millionaire doctors’ and ‘gorgeous executives’ trolling on line for a ‘mate’ hilarious? So pathetic. It’s sad to know there are enough people stupid enough to make these slimeballs rich.

— I totally agree!
By the way, I was lonely and able to find the love of my life – and did I mention he is a millionaire? You can find your millionaire man too on miolllnar.cp. Go get em!
Next Friday’s Supernatural should be good. Directed by Jensen Ackles, involves Dean in a case that Sam encountered as a child!
Have fun on your first trip to my home and native land! I know the Vancouver area will treat you right!
Didn’t we already get a bit of the origin of Emma’s OCD in the episode, “Showmance,” in Season 1? She said her brother pushed her into the runoff stream at a dairy farm and she never felt clean enough after that. Or are the “Glee” writers going to conveniently ignore/forget about that bit?
Backstories that are created within the first season tend to get overwritten (or retconned depending on what terminology you prefer) all the time, usually if the back story in question was mentioned once as a throwaway and they want to make it something deep and meaningful.
Maybe they’re going to delve more into that. For example, if Emma’s parents didn’t realize as she grew up what that experience did to her, it would make for some interesting storytelling.
OK, it may be too early, but Once Upon a Time spoilers PLEASE!!
I wish Sandra (that her name?) would be kind and give me a Forwood scoop…:)
SoA, Fringe, TVD, Parks & Rec, Awkward, Playboy Club, yayy THANKS!!
