Keck's Exclusives: Scoop on Desperate Housewives, The Vampire Diaries and House

Ian Somerhalder told me at the People's Choice Awards that he'd just shot a Vampire Diaries scene where Damon "wakes up naked with another woman who is a hot vampire." Might this be Katherine? Nina Dobrev (Elena/Katherine) hints, "I can't say whether or not I'm in that scene, but it is a character fans are familiar with and Elena will definitely have an opinion on it."
Years ago, Marc Cherry vowed never to kill Desperate Housewives' Mrs. McCluskey (Kathryn Joosten), but current executive producer Bob Daily now tells me he's "not 100 percent sure we're killing her off, but her cancer is returning. And it's serious." Uh-oh.
Veteran actress Diane Baker returns to House in March as Dr. House's mom, Blythe, for the first time since 2008. She surprises her disapproving son with news of her relationship with guest star Billy Connolly.
