Every Wednesday, senior editors Matt Webb Mitovich and Mickey O'Connor answer your questions!In what capacity we will be seeing Desmond and his constant, Penny, next season on Lost? Any word on that? – MajaMatt: Maja, this is an excellent question. I even rewatched the season finale to confirm my own POV: "Why would we ever see Dez again?"

Cheers to Weeds for scoring the summer's coolest guest star: Albert Brooks. Showtime's pot-com lost its way last season, but by making a run for the Mexican border — and casting one of the funniest people alive as Mary-Louise Parker's estranged ex-father-in-law — it's gotten back on track. With his perfectly deadpan delivery, Brooks fits right in as Len, a gambling addict who takes in drug dealer Parker's on-the-lam family, despite the fact that he's still never forgiven her for not being Jewish. It's a thrill to see such terrific actors doing weekly TV series — and now comes the news that Brooks' Broadcast News costar William Hurt will play Glenn Close's new client on Damages.
