Hey All,
Here are the news items for today, again, few though they are:
TELEVISION
Legendary actor Joel Grey (Cabaret) as well as actor Steve Valentine (Crossing Jordan) and actress Nora Zehetner (Grey’s Anatomy) will all be making guest appearances on Warehouse 13 when the show returns for the rest of its current season, starting on April 29. Grey will appear in the May 20 episode as Monty the Magnificent, an aging performer who once headlined in Las Vegas; but in recent years has been relegated to those small smoky lounges off the casino floors. Soon enough, though, Monty has just unveiled a new trick that could restore his fame. There’s just one problem. His new levitation stunt results in his volunteers inexplicably shooting up into the sky the following day, never to be seen again. And Pete (Eddie McClintock) may end up being Monty’s next rocket. This episode will also feature Valentine as Val Preston, a glitzy David Copperfield-like main stage magician who took Monty’s place and is now trying to steal his new act. Zehetner will co-star as Monty’s pretty young assistant. (William Keck at TV Guide)

Question: Loved the Defiance premiere last night! Any chance for spoilers on what’s coming up? – Tyler in Pittsburgh
Team Watch with Kristin: Stephanie Leonidas, who plays Irisa, tells us that her character will not be mysterious for much longer. “We will figure out more about Irisa’s past,” Leonidas says about upcoming episodes. But don’t expect any emotional connection between her and any other characters any time soon. “[She’s] not good with emotions, but she is good with a knife!”
That’s it. Enjoy!
