What's Next for THE MENTALIST

TV Guide's Mega Buzz has the answer as to what's next for Patrick Jane on THE MENTALIST:

"Jane will claim that he killed Red John in self-defense after he learned that Red John was communicating with his mole, Agent O'Loughlin. (We all saw the gun and the phone call, right?) Not so fast, says series creator Bruno Heller. "Not only is there no cell phone with any calls from an FBI Agent named O'Loughlin, but no gun will be found [by the police]," he says, hinting that someone is still pulling the strings. "Within five minutes of the season-opener, Jane is in jail for homicide with no way out. And he and Lisbon, to some extent, start questioning his sanity." There we go — the insanity defense!"

Intriguing, no?

A New Series Regular Joining DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES

Watch with Kristin reveals that DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES is looking for an actor to play a new series regular named Ben. Here is how Ben is described: He is "a sexy, masculine contractor... Ben has the kind of grit and tremendous drive that comes from being a self-made man. Ruthless in business, but with a charming, witty façade, Ben is a powerful confident man."

In other DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES news, The TV Addict.com reveals the following "According to sources, producers have quietly been on the look out for a love interest for Vanessa Williams’ Renee, who moves into town along with his out-of-control teenaged daughter to escape his crazy ex-wife who not surprisingly enough may not be too far behind."

Could the new love interest with a daughter be new series regular Ben? Only time will tell if both spoilers are linked or not.

New Recurring Characters and scoop for 90210

TV Line has shared the following descriptions of recurring characters joining 90210 next season.

• Austin: A charming and hunky cowboy à la Brad Pitt in "Thelma & Louise." He’s the son of a country music superstar. As such, he’s wealthy, but not in an obnoxious way.
• Holly: Naomi’s super-wealthy, sorority-obsessed archrival at California U.
• Jasmeen: Navid’s 18-year-old troublemaking, self-absorbed younger sister.
• Gabe: The anti-Liam in that he’s friendly, outgoing and extremely communicative. An upperclassman at CU, Gabe forges an instant connection with Annie — but he may have an ulterior motive.
• Jane: A mysterious new love interest for Liam who became a widow at a young age. Think Ingrid Bergman in Casablanca.

- Producers are looking for someone to play Navid's Uncle Amal, who will be a recurring character who was his father's business partner and is a bad guy who seems charming upon first glance. But underneath, he is ruthless and will do whatever it takes to make more money. Money is his priority, first and foremost. He isn't someone you want to mess with. - Source: Watch with Kristin

- TV Guide's Mega Buzz reveals that Naomi will not simmer down even if pregnant. "In her quest for Greek system dominance, Naomi will butt heads with Holly, the mean-girl president of the most prestigious sorority at CU. When Holly can't control Naomi's characteristic acquisitiveness, she seeks revenge for one particular purchase by hazing the holy heck out of everyone's favorite with-child frenemy."

- An upcoming episode is about a killing at a high school reunion. - Source: TV Line

- Professor Gellar, to be played by Edward James Olmos, is someone that all of Miami is seeking out. He becomes a big person of interest in some crimes that are being committed in Miami. They are probably the biggest crimes we’ve ever seen on this show. We’re going toward a different kind of serial killer than what we usually see. This is someone more in line with the Zodiac Killer…. He kills people with great conviction. This is probably the first serial killer we’ve had who thinks he’s in the right. Professor Gellar definitely feels like he’s killing for a reason, and Dexter is very, very curious to know what exactly that reason is, and to try to understand it in some way. It’s very intriguing and baffling, and it doesn’t make sense to Dexter. For more spoilers on the upcoming season, click the link of the source. - Source: Entertainment Weekly

Trevor Donovan Leaving 90210

Don't know about you but I've never really liked 90210's Teddy. Then again, I never hated him either. His storylines were a tad too boring for my taste compared the others. So learning, from TV Line, that actor Trevor Donovan, who plays Teddy, would not be a series regular next season did not bother me at all. Especially if the series can introduce a character for whom writers will be able to write somewhat more compelling storylines for.

Trevor Donovan will appear in about 5 episodes next fall which will surely be shaped so to set up Teddy's departure. Maybe he'll regain his tennis magic and go on world-wide competitions?
