Fringe is the most addictive new show on television! Give me some scoop on when Olivia and Peter will get all romantic. — Keith
Mickey: Well, Keith, I hate to disappoint you (perv), but it’s going to be a while. This show is so not about sex right now. My Fringe mole tells me that producers are aiming for a “slow burn” between Olivia and Peter. Olivia’s boyfriend, John, just died a few weeks ago, and he is currently haunting her. So she’s busy. Peter also has his hands full babysitting his dad. And then there’s all that world-saving to be done. Speaking of which: Look for Olivia’s work to take her overseas in a coming episode.

Did I read that Brothers & Sisters‘ Kevin was going to have some medical problems? Could you shed light on that? — Jennifer
Matt: Matthew Rhys indeed hinted at “health issues” vexing Kevin in this Emmys red-carpet video. All I am at liberty to add is that Kevin will consider undergoing a major surgical procedure. (Just don’t lop off his awesome accent!)

Question: I’m not feeling this Grimes guy as Brothers & Sisters‘ Ryan. Please tell me there’s more than meets the eye. — Doug
Ausiello: Believe me, I was as taken aback as you by the news that B&S handed the role of Ryan to a virtual unknown. But then one of my plugged-in TV industry moles emailed to assure me that, “Luke Grimes may not be an exciting name to the public, but in Hollywood, he is a star on the rise. There is tremendous amount of heat on him — so much so that I was surprised he committed to a TV show.” Also keep this in mind: Grimes’ casting was OK’d by Greg Berlanti. And if it’s good enough for Greg Berlanti, it’s good enough for me.

Question: I love Pushing Daisies! They wouldn’t really cancel it, would they? — Anna
Ausiello: Yes they would. Has Courtney contacted you about the flower drive she’s organizing? If not, you should be hearing from her very soon.

Question: Has Privileged been picked up for the entire season? I love Joanna Garcia in this show. — Anne
Ausiello: Quelle coincidence! I heart JG, too. And since the network has ordered additional scripts, things are looking good for a full-season pick-up. While we’re on the subject of Privileged, care for some scoop? (Rhetorical question; at ease.) We’re about to meet the MIA mom who managed to pop out polar-opposite daughters Megan and Lily. So…a cross between a grade-school hall monitor and Courtney Love?

Question: Loved your Gossip Girl multiple-choice death quiz last week. My guess is Vanessa is going to die. Got any other GG scoop? — Jennifer
Ausiello: How about another multiple-choice quiz — this one pertaining to an equally-as-tragic Gossip Girl event: Next month, Dorota will catch one of the following characters committing an act of self-love:

A. Serena
B. Chuck
C. Blair
D. Eleanor
E. Nate

Question: More Gossip Girl scoop? — Annie
Ausiello: What do Nate and Jenny have in common with Michael Cera and Ellen Page’s Juno characters? Nothing right now, but my Gossip snitch says that’s about to change. In other words, either Jenny is getting knocked up, or the two of them are going to perform a cover of the Moldy Peaches’ “Anyone Else But You” over the end credits.

Question: Is it just me or has Ugly Betty lost its charm? This season has been dull and boring so far. — Laura
Ausiello: It’s certainly been uneven. I loved the first two episodes, but 3 and 4 were borderline unwatchable. Alexis’ entire farewell arc was a hot tranny mess. The good news is, I hear episodes 5 thru 7 are a vast improvement. Of course, my Ugly mole had me at “Betty and Amanda become roommates.” Less so at “Betty catches Jesse with Amanda,” but I’m hoping I just misunderstood that part.
