Any more news concerning AS-P ...
Question: Any more news concerning AS-P and Gilmore Girls? Answer: The plot thickens: At the wrap party last Thursday, Amy did not make her traditional speech. I don't know about you, but if I were about to leave the show that I created six years ago, I'd probably have something to say. Maybe she was too busy admiring the humongous cake, which, according to my spies, was a replica of Stars Hollow. Hope someone saved me the gazebo.

I heard a rumor that The O.C. ...
Question: I heard a rumor that The O.C. is ending this season. Is this true? Answer: If so, it's news to Josh Schwartz, who told my colleague, Ileane Rudolph, that he's planning a major "reinvention" of the show next season. For starters, Kaitlin (Willa Holland) will move back to town full-time, sparking a "repopulation of the high-school universe," Schwartz says. "You will see a whole new generation through Kaitlin's eyes." The "older" set, meanwhile, will segue into a "twentysomething world beyond just the bait shop. There's a whole young-adult world in Newport for our kids to get in trouble in." Schwartz won't guarantee that the core four — Seth, Summer, Ryan and Marissa — will all be back, but he did share this most welcome scoopbit: Autumn Reeser (Taylor) will be made a series

Question: Any One Tree Hill sneak peeks? Answer: In the May 3 season (or series?) finale, there are some big cliff-hangers. First, Nathan and Haley will finally have their dream wedding, but a tragic accident will leave one character fighting for his/her life — and TV Guide's Damian Holbrook begging for another season. Also, it will be revealed that not one, but two characters are preggers. And finally, Brooke learns a secret that Peyton and Lucas were hiding and walks away from them both. Wow, I detest this show and even I wanna see this episode! (Just kidding.)

Question: Dr. Ausiello, I need an IV of House spoilers stat. A shot will do if no IV is available. Answer: You're gonna need a defibrillator while watching the two-part episode on May 2 and May 3, which, as you already know from reading AA, finds Foreman in the throes of a life-threatening medical crisis. It will seriously blow your mind. Omar Epps, Lisa Edelstein and Jennifer Morrison give the performances of their freakin' careers. And there are at least two big twists, one involving Cameron and Foreman and another involving ******* that comes at the very end of the second episode.
