CASTLE Roundup: Seamus Dever and Jon Huertas Tease ‘3XK’; Nathaniel Marston to Guest Star

CASTLE fans, tonight’s episode is good.

“3XK” introduces us to a serial killer — nicknamed, you guessed it, 3XK — who might be the toughest foe Castle and Beckett have faced to date.

There is only so much I can say without totally spoiling the hour, so I asked CASTLE stars Jon Huertas and Seamus Dever to tease what fans can expect…

Also, when I was on the set last week, I spotted former ONE LIFE TO LIVE star Nathaniel Marston (Al/Michael) and ABC has confirmed that he’ll be playing a character named Grant Vyro in the upcoming episode, “Last Call.”

According to a show rep, Grant is a “Brooklyn tough guy who could just as easily have ended up in the mob, but instead chose to become a dock worker (albeit, by cheating the union).”

Awesome, right?

Make sure to come back to Give Me My Remote after “3XK” airs this evening, because we’ll have much to discuss…

In Treatment | 9:00pm on HBO | Season Premiere

As Dr. Paul Weston continues to struggle with the aftermath of his divorce, he faces new emotional and physical challenges – including hand tremors that he fears might be the onset of Parkinson’s Disease, which killed his father. Meanwhile, he takes on three challenging new patients and turns to a new therapist of his own.

SMALLVILLE: Isis

Clark and Oliver decided to team up with Tess Mercer?! Never thought we would see the day! Sure, when Clark was younger, and naive, he always fell for the Lex’s charm, but again? Without Chloe’s savvy computer skills or Carter Hall, who has gone MIA, the super duo was obviously desperate for help as they tried to free Lois from the control of Isis.

The good to come out of Lois being possessed (once again) was Isis’ lesson for Clark. Isis’ obsession with getting back the love of her life seemed to help Clark find a happy medium with his own issues of the heart. His definition of love and just how far he would go for Lois really came into question. Even though Isis was about to bring on the apocalypse in order to get her one true love, Osiris, back, she did manage to give Clark the courage he needed to tell Lois about his true identity. After gaining perspective, Clark sharing his secret seemed to be no big deal after all this time. Lois took it well.

SUPERNATURAL: Live Free or Twihard

It’s hard to imagine an SPN fan out there that didn’t really, really enjoy last night’s installment. In one of my favorite signature SUPERNATURAL moves, the episode started out hilarious and then progressed to scary, creepy and finally, intensely sad. Dean has finally reached the point where he knows with certainty that something is wrong with his brother, and it’s not something he can ignore any longer.

The cold open was pretty genius in both it’s spot-on recreation of the Twilight phenomenon and it’s send-up of the very same. I’ve never seen the movies, but I did read the books (yes, even that especially dreadful last one with the painful sex and fast-aging hybrid baby). The shoe-gazing hesitancy of the characters, always underlined by the girl holding herself back from her own sexuality and the boy trying not to both ravage her and kill her, was spot-on.

Outlaw | 8pm on NBC

Garza and his team fight to save the life of an orphan who is being denied an organ transplant; a man from Lucinda’s past makes his presence known; Eddie must choose between the team and his own future.

CASTLE: Nathan Fillion, Jon Huertas and Seamus Dever Dish on Season 3

Reason #67891231244719672 my job doesn’t suck? I spent yesterday on the CASTLE set.

I got to watch the cast film a scene at the precinct, spent most of the afternoon hanging out in Castle’s loft and had the chance to talk with most of the actors on the show.

I know, I know, you hate me.

GREY’S ANATOMY: ‘Almost Grown’

This is either going to be the easiest GREY’S ANATOMY recap I’ve ever written, or the hardest. Why? Because very little actually happened this week. Seriously, if I wanted to I could sum up the entire episode in just a couple of sentences. But I suppose you want a little more than that, don’t you, fellow GREY’S lovers? I’ll do what I can for you…

BONES Spin-Off in the Works

Well, this is interesting.

As Deadline TV first reported earlier today, Fox has confirmed to Give Me My Remote that BONES is about to be spun off into a new potential series.

BONES will apparently introduce a new character, named Walter Sherman — aka “the Locator” — in an upcoming episode with the intention of having him headline a brand-spankin’ new show. Word is, BONES mastermind Hart Hanson will be responsible for creating the spin-off.

The actor — who has yet to be cast — playing the character of Walter is scheduled to begin shooting on December 6th and first appear on the series sometime in 2011.

The network pulled a similar move a few years back when they introduced the character of Lucas on HOUSE, with the intention of spinning him off into his own private investigation series, but it never came to pass. It is worth noting that the writers did like Lucas enough to keep him recurring the following season.

So what will this new dude on BONES be like?

Tonight’s TV Spotlight…Thursday, October 21, 2010

VAMPIRE DIARIES is back tonight with a fresh episode, along with most of the other Thursday favorites, my friends.

I know, even with BONES and FRINGE airing reruns this week, I’m stressed about how much good stuff there is to watch.

THE BIG BANG THEORY: ‘I’m a physicist, not a hippie!’

Meeting the parents of your significant other is always awkward.

But when you’re THE BIG BANG THEORY’s Sheldon? Oy vey.

This will clearly end well.
