According to the Hollywood Reporter, Lindsay Pulsipher is the latest to join season three of “True Blood.” She’ll be playing Crystal Norris, some type of hippie-love child that connects with Jason Stackhouse and then dissapears into the forest on him.
At this point, I believe the only major character yet to be cast is Alcide’s ex-girlfriend Debbie Pelt.
Spoilers on Lindsay’s character Crystal after the jump!

My guess is “Medium” does too, but there is no release for it as of yet.
WHEN NED DISCOVERS A GHOST IS HAUNTING HIS WORK AT THE GRANDVIEW RADIO STATION, MELINDA MUST HELP BEFORE THE GHOST SEEKS REVENGE OVER THE AIRWAVES, ON “GHOST WHISPERER,” FRIDAY, JAN. 8
“Dead Air” – Melinda must help Ned stop a ghost out for revenge when the Grandview radio station broadcasts the humiliating secrets that led to his death, on GHOST WHISPERER, Friday, Jan. 8 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.
Ausiello has reported that Joe Manganiello has been cast as Alcide on “True Blood.” “One Tree Hill” fans know him as Owen the bartender.
In the recent days he’s also revealed a few other casting bits. Natasha Alam has been cast as a possible love interest for Eric, playing a dancer at Fangtasia. James Frain has been cast as Franklin Mott, who becomes a vampire love interest for Tara. Finally J. Smith-Cameron will play Sam’s trashy birth mom.
Other casting news . . . Alfre Woodard will play Lafeyette’s mom. Most will remember her as Mrs. Applewhite on “Housewives” (among the millions of other things she’s done). Kristin Bauer who plays Eric’s side kick Pam has been up’ed to a series regular next year.
For some spoilers (provided by a friend whose read the books, I plan to start after Xmas) make the jump for some answers to some of Season 2′s cliffhangers!
When “Heroes” returns in the new year, starting on January 11th it will air at 9pm, with “Chuck” airing at 8pm and “Parenthood” at 10pm. (Correction, “Parenthood” starts in March at the 9pm timeslot . . . so yeah . . . . ) Basically it seems “Heroes” will end its season REALLY early this year (“Parenthood” takes over after the Winter Olympics ends in February).
In other related news, Sendhil Ramamurthy (Mohinder), who was cast in a new NBC pilot, has been replaced because of conflicts with “Heroes.” Many fans are taking that as a good sign that the show isn’t on it’s death bed.
A few new spoiler releases are out today for some of ABC’s shows, back in the early New Year. Basically “Brothers and Sisters” and “Desperate Housewives.”
Also what could be the final “Eastwick” airs December 30th. It’s the episode staring Jerry O’Connell, and he was taping the final episode(s?) when the news of cancellation came in. A new episode does air this week, I’ve put its release in here too. . .
The “Housewives” release either has a BIG typo or a MAJOR spoiler!
Thoughts On The Final Glee Of The Year, And For A Long Long Time!
Posted by Dustin on 12.13.2009 at 5:38 pm
So I just rewatched the mid-season finale of “Glee” again the other day in preparation for making a thoughts post on it.
Once again the totally outrageous and off-color humor made this episode. Britney saying “If sex was dating then Santana and I would be a couple” was great. However the best lines were those of the judges in the deliberation room. The blonde 4th runner up for Miss Ohio saying “Okay, I don’t know how those deaf kids got into a singing competition” and the black lady/professional cynic saying she “hadn’t been funneling money to that school for them to shake their asses like hoochey mamas!” Sooooooo good!
I did feel a little bad for Finn, that basically everyone in the club knew the truth before him. However when he up and quit the club, I stopped feeling bad for him. Punishing the rest of them for Puck and Quinn was wrong. Also I loved Puck telling Finn that he was the one stupid enough to believe the hot-tub lie. Dur!
I totally didn’t get why Shue couldn’t be and the concert, aside from it created more drama and moments between him and Emma. I know he wasn’t allowed to be their coach, but it’s a public concert and he could have been an audience member.
Discussing the show with a friend, she said the one thing she was a bit disappointed in was that everything sorta got resolved and there was nothing leaving us hanging. In a way she’s right, but there are some things to look forward to. Regionals for sure, as well as the return of Sue, who we all know wants revenge. It was great to “C” Sue go down finally.
Even though it looks like Emma and Shue have a clear path, I don’t think Terry is going anywhere. I wouldn’t put it past her to somehow really end up pregnant!
The final number of the show was great. First, the cast did a better job with the song than even Kelly Clarkson. Hey, I’m not the only one on the net to point that out! Also I loved that they did a mash-up of all their performances/choreography from the whole season during the performance. If you didn’t catch that, be sure to go back and watch the end again just for it!
Well since “Smuty Frosty” was pulled from the net, here is some “Glee” humor I ran across I’ll get a post up on last night’s show soon. It’s gunna be a long wait till April, so hopefully more fans will do things like these guys did to entertain us all till then.
How I Met Your Mother Naughty Christmas Humor . . .
Posted by Dustin on 12.09.2009 at 2:13 pm
While there is no foul language in this, it is adult oriented, so it may not be totally safe to watch at the work place or around young kids!
This video features select scenes from “Frost The Snowman” and “Frosty Returns” mixed in with comments from Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) of “How I Met Your Mother.”
I thought it was a fan made video till I got to the end . . . CBS did this! They did it as an online advert for both “HIMYM” and the “Frosty” specials. Hilarious, but I can see some people getting bent out of shape over this honestly. Then again, it was online and I would never have learned about it unless a friend forwarded it to me.
BTW, “Frosty’s Winter Wonderland” is always shown on ABC family channel, CBS for some reason doesn’t have the rights to show that one. That’s the one where he marries Crystal.
Brothers and Sisters: Wedding Nightmare! (Updated)
Posted by Dustin on 12.06.2009 at 11:59 pm
As with “Housewives” I’m doing a blog as I watch kinda thing with the last “Brothers and Sisters” of the year. This is my ongoing thoughts as watching the show. I wanted to get a post up so people could comment as soon as possible . . .
I still hate that they are failing Justin. What a waste of a storyline to send him to school and fail him out. Yes I guess it happens, but we don’t always want real life on TV!
Damnit I got interrupted by family drama!
Tommy back and kidnapped his kid! Ahhh!
Ahhh no Kitty! Poor Kitty! Not looking good for Kitty (oh we know they aren’t killing her!)
Uh oh . . . Justin breaking in front of Rebecca! Sorry but she lied to him for so long. Well not lied, but kept finding excuses not to be honest.
Damnit I’m glad there is a month before the next show so I can watch this one again with all my own family drama interrupting! I need Nora to tell some people to shut up!
Oh no Justin witnessing an accident! With a kid no less. Time to show he has what it takes though.
Julia! I love Julia! Oh lord Julia, don’t make me feel bad for Tommy using the kid! Grrr, Tommy was wrong taking the kid, but she doesn’t need to treat the rest of the family like crap.
Ahhh Rebecca is calling the wedding off. This is drama drama and my own family won’t let me watch! Ahh!
Aww Justin and Rebecca make up! Tommy and Julia? Can we hope?
I totally missed the Simon drama with all my family drama damnit!
Is it wrong I don’t care Ryan isn’t involved in the wedding at all?
Oh god Kitty went down at the wedding! I saw this coming when she started talking! What a way to end the show for the year! DAMNIT!
Some post thoughts . . . as I rambled on a lot Not as thrilling as housewives, but still a lot of drama. I hate the mess Tommy has put his family in. I wish they could disown Tommy and just keep Julia. Now she’s waging war with the family using the kid it seems, and I hate that. I’m glad Justin and Rebecca made up, and I can’t believe I like Holly for standing up for them when David didn’t. They really want me to like Holly don’t they! So glad Ryan wasn’t at the wedding, let’s disown him with Tommy! As for Kitty . . . well that was a cliff hanger in the making this whole damn episode. I think we all know they won’t kill her off. Oh . . . and a final thought . . . where is Saul’s boyfriend? He’s as unlucky in love as his sister!
Info : Please, resolve the addition below before post any new comment...
Dustin : I agree, they are gonna have to kill CJ for it to be a shock, but I don't think they will
Guest_3468 : Found army wives ending really blah, been done too many times by them especially with that character
Dustin : About to sit down and watch the Army Wives! They return June 24th, long ways away
Dustin : Gunna write a post this weekend about which shows I'm looking forward to this fall! I'll try and add in all the promo videos for each as well.
Guest_3468 : This just might put me off the show for good, can't believe it was her, Shonda sucks, crappy addison sam obsession and now this
Dustin : I have some major issues with this one, as . . . . well I'll save it for after the show with my write up
Jay : So sad!
Dustin : Well this sucks!
Dustin : No it's been said its a real and permanent death, so I don't think it's one of the people whose contracts were up in the air. I heard they all would be in positions to stay or leave by the end of the season and that's how they'd be written out if they left
Guest_4669 : I heard that Shonda wrote the finale before contracts were resigned, so I'm not sure if there will be a clear answer tonight as to who dies. I think that there will be a lot of potential victims. I know this sounds morose, but I'd like to see someone come out of the accident with long lasting injuries. With the exception of PTSD (and other mental problems) it seems like people on this show bounce back from injuries too quick.
Guest_3699 : After watching the 6 min preview I'm wondering if they aren't going to do someone stupid like the captain of the plane.
Dustin : I hate that they failed April too. So lame!
Guest_4669 : I don't want Adele to die, but I think that will be too easy. I'm still angry over April failing, but will wait to comment on your thoughts to voice that opinion. (This is the only GA board I comment on so I have been holding onto these thoughts for a few weeks ha ha.)
Dustin : Though I also think there is a possibily the plane crash is a fake out, and it's still Adele who dies
Dustin : I think Arizona or Mark is gunna kick the bucket. I am thinking it will be Arizona, as then who will Lexie have?
Guest_4669 : Hey Dustin - any predictions for the Grey's Finale?
Dustin : I'll get my Once Thoughts up tonight. Have a draft. But now I'm off to see Dark Shadows My main questions really are about the haze, and also when the heck did Regina figure out who Emma was? This episode?
Dustin : I didn't think the queen looked that happy? I'm gonna have to watch it again. I am also not certain when Regina figured out who Emma was? Was it in this episode?
Guest_1607 : Like how they ended Housewives but hated the whole ghost thing.
Dustin : I'll get thoughts on both finales up a little later.
Guest_2158 : I think the purple haze is going to bring magic to storybrooke, hence the reason Gold wanted the love potion and the Queen looked happy/devious when she saw it.
Sean : I think DH went out on a very high note. The stories coming out about Terri and her bitchiness are really piling up.
Sean : Once was great tonight and really satisfying and tied up most story lines and set the tone for next season.
Sean : I only watched Once (LUV IT) and I would have dropped Grimm if it had been on any other night but enjoy it now, the second half was very strong. I gave up (mostly) on Network shows because they have such a high mortality rate. I'll commit to Cable and Premium shows because they usually go for 3 season minimum and although a shorter season they air all the eps in a row. Besides, with network shows only doing 20 -22 thats not much more than the 13 of cable et all.
Dustin : I wanna slap Tom, even in the finale.
Dustin : Wow what do we think the Purple Haze does? Make them high lol
Dustin : Last Housewives tonight! Gunna be sad Finale Once for the year too!
CGinCA : Dustin, I too had bad luck this year on new shows to get hooked on. And a few of the shows that I tried one or two episodes and gave up on as being short lived are returning..... Not fair.
Guest_1633 : Me too on circle and GCB. I really like both of those shows.
Dustin : I'm still upset about Circle and GCB! I am glad Body of Proof is coming back though
Guest_3468 : Ringer really made it too confusing for people to stay tuned in I was surprised at The Secret Circle, I thought it would make it after it's surges at the end
Guest_3750 : So sad about Ringer and GCB!
Julie : I can't believe they cancelled Ringer! I loved that show!
Dustin : I think every new show I picked up save for Grimm and Once has gotten canceled! This SUCKS!
Dustin : A lot of people suspect Arizona, because that paves the way for Karev to take over Pedes
