SIDE DISHES
Tell me something about the Glee premiere!! – Kellie
Well, y’all certainly had mixed reactions to the pictures of Brody and Rachel getting cozy in episode 2, but after checking out the season premiere, I’ve started to wonder if even the most loyal Finchel fans might be a little charmed by Brody’s kind demeanor. I’m very curious to see what your reaction is once you see him in action. And on a completely piggish note, the boy also has a rockin’ bod…which we get to see in a towel…and freshly showered. It’s quite the first impression for us – and Rachel. (Also, before someone calls me a giant perv, I will have you know that Dean Geyer is 20 26 years old. So there.) Sandra note: Age corrected! Even better…
Klaine scoop pleeeeaaaassseeee!!! – Jenn
Judging by your overuse of vowels, I’m guessing you’ve already heard Darren Criss’ version of “It’s Time.” Personally, I’m obsessed — not to mention I’m currently listening to it as I type. And after watching the first episode and seeing the context for the performance (KLAINE ALERT!), I love it even more. Sigh. In non-couples news: When Blaine isn’t serenading, he’s in a fierce competition with fellow members of New Directions to be the *** *a***.

Second puzzle of the week: Olivia is going to hear a phrase she’s probably never heard in her entire life “***’** *i*e*!”
I keep hearing that the Bones Season 8 premiere is AMAZING!….So, just how adorable is Booth & Christine’s reunion? Commence the cute deets please, thx! – Sue B
First, the premiere is pretty amazing. I’ll admit that before I watched, I was a little worried that Booth’s resentment toward Runaway Mommy would sully any sweet moments, but that is not the case at all. In fact, I’m happy to report that the Booth/Bones/Baby reunion is very cute — almost as heart-warming as Christine’s baby jabber. One word in particular that she seems to have mastered will make you — and Booth — melt!
Hey, Sandra! You haven’t shared anything on Bones in a long time. Anything on Booth and Brennan, or exciting that we haven’t heard of yet? – Mariam
Remember the washing machine sex that David Boreanaz talked about at Comic-Con? Hold that thought…
Hey Sandra! I’m dying for some Hawaii Five-0 scoop? Can you help me out pllleeease?! — @lexi_girl89
Pretty Little Liars isn’t the only one planning a Halloween ep! I hear there’s a pretty fun-sounding Halloween-themed episode in the works that finds McGarrett and Danny working a murder that took place at a costume party, and Kono and Chin Ho working a case with a pagan twist. My hope? We see at least ONE person rocking a costume. In my dreams, it’s McGarrett as Batman. Mmm…(I’ve clearly gone off topic.)
I’ll take any news on #NCIS McGee? Or any kind of #NCIS scoop you may have would be great? 
— @zoyaroses
I should have some great stuff for you next week. Why? Because a certain season premiere will be sitting on my doorstep as early as TOMORROW! Start packing my inbox with specific queries.
Hi Sandra, I can’t remember the last time Spoiler Room had some Private Practice scoop on Charlotte & Cooper. Its been SO long! Will you pls help this HUGE [fan] out! Thanks! – KC
In times like these, I must call in reinforcements. And by that, I mean my colleague Tanner Stransky, who spoke with Kate Walsh for EW’s Fall TV Preview (on stands now!). He brought me this tease just for you: In the season opener, we all know that Addison will be making her decision between Jake and Sam. What you may not have heard? That her big choice is just one of many huge things happening in the opener. (And yes, we’re talking about Char and Coop, too.) “Huge news happens to every single character,” says Walsh. “We’re doing things that are totally in line with what would be realistic for these characters. But also it’s really intense, and they include socio-political issues that come up that just are really kind of razor-edge, ethically debatable, and really killer storylines.”
I’m missing Suits in a pretty intense way. No, I’m not sitting in a dark room rocking back and forth or anything, but I am sitting in a dark room watching all the episodes over again. HELP ME OUT!! Before this gets serious… — Maggie
I hate to break it to you, Maggie. But this addiction already sounds out of control — so allow me to enable you with this juicy tease: Remember when EP Aaron Korsh promised EW’s Mandi Bierly that Rachel and Mike would be getting back together “on some sort of non-angry footing a few episodes into the winter season, based on a case that comes in that has a personal aspect to it for Rachel”? Turns out that “personal aspect” is her dad, who the show is currently casting. And let’s just say dear old pa, who’s a lawyer, has a less-than-awesome relationship with his daughter.
Doctor Who! Raising Hope! — @xxtriplestarxx
I’ll take Raising Hope because there are two teases I’ve been dying to share: 1) The death Sabrina’s granny ends up launching Sabrina and Jimmy into serious discussions about nuptials. And after several twists and turns, the episode will end on a note that I certainly wasn’t expecting. 2) Drakkar Noir makes his return!! And in this flashback, a twist is revealed that involves someone close to Sabrina…
TVD fans? :p — @IfYouDontKnow1
Gear up for a yet another flashback. But I’ll let Daniel Gillies give you the skinny on all that next week, in Spoiler Room Video Edition. 
Image Credit: Rafy/NBC Is there any chance of Joel and Maggie getting back together on #SavingHope. They were a cute couple. — @anam_xo
I’m going to have to say no – mostly because when Daniel Gillies stopped by to film the aforementioned Spoiler-ific segment, he said last two episodes of the yanked-from-broadcast series would open our eyes a bit more to his true feelings. “I think it’s becoming more abundantly clear that he’s in love with Alex. He just wants her to acknowledge that there’s some sort of frequency here,” he says. “[In the last two episodes] Joel is kind of coming undone. He definitely presents himself as this fortress of strength and he’s really not….There’s something emotionally depleted about him. There’s something missing from him and I think he’s in denial that he’s seeking that.” Make sure to catch the last two episodes of Saving Hope online – and don’t weep too much over its loss. The bright side is that it’s getting a second season in Canada!
Thank you SO much for the Leverage chat with Aldis Hodge last Sunday. Please do another one again soon! Now, let’s hear some scoop! – Peggy
Well, you know how we’re all waiting to hear news on renewal? Well, start campaigning even harder! Because if you don’t, chances are that you will be driven CRAZY by the season finale. “We usually want to do [finales] in a way that we honor our audience and not screw them over. We also don’t want to leave too much set,” says Hodge. “But I think our audience is going to be surprised. We have the most major revelations in the season finale that we’ve ever had…The audience is going to flip.”
White Collar scoop, please! Loving this season so far! — Angela B.
I know we typically don’t like it when Peter and Neal fight (unless it involves boxing gloves like next week’s episode!), but in the mid-season finale, airing Sept. 18, their feud is actually pretty hilarious. In one particularly amusing scene, the two must recount their first case together in front of a crowd and let’s just say they have slightly different versions to tell. I just love these guys!
Any chance for some #GossipGirl scoop? Preferably on Chuck/Blair or Blair/Serena but I’ll take anything. — @anniebear_xo
I tried. I promise you; I tried. But it seems that things are so tight-lipped on set for this final season of Gossip Girl that even Ed Westwick is playing it coy. I present to you our (very short) convo with him at the Style Awards:
We heard Chuck and Blair are in a good place at the beginning of the season. Tell us about that. Will it stay that way?
Westwick: I can’t give anything away! I can’t tell. You’ll have to watch.What have been the best scenes you’ve filmed so far?
Anything in New York. I still love it here.
And I still love you, Ed. But let’s get with the scoopage, love! Maybe next time…
