Hey All,

First of all, Happy Veterans Day!

Now, here are the news items for today:

TELEVISION

Actor Micah Parker (The Vampire Diaries and Mob City) will appear in an upcoming episode of The Flash, playing Clay Parker, an inmate at Iron Heights Prison who is incarcerated for theft. When Clay’s girlfriend breaks him out of prison, Clay exploits her feelings for him and convinces her to utilize her meta-human powers for one last heist. (ComicBook.com and Dark Horizons)

Graceland has been given a 13-episode third season by USA Network. (Kate Stanhope at TV Guide)

TNT has cancelled their legal dramedy Franklin and Bash after four season. (Variety)

Actor James Wolk (The Crazy Ones) will star in the CBS summer drama Zoo, based on the James Patterson best-seller. He will play a renegade zoologist who is tasked with trying to figure out why animals are suddenly attacking humans. (Cynthia Littleton at Variety)

BOX OFFICE TRAILER

Q&A SECTION (with Kristin dos Santos at E! Online)

Question: Constantine scoop! Please! – Rob

Kristin: Time to dust off your “Vote for Pedro” shirts! I can exclusively reveal that Napoleon Dynamite’s Efren Ramirez has been cast on the NBC comic book show. He will guest star in “The Saint of Last Resorts: Part 2” as Julio, a wily, street smart inmate who knows how to “get things” in a Mexican prison, ranging from cigarettes to drugs to women. He’s a survivor who’ll do what it takes to make it another day, and he thought he’d seen it all—but Julio’s never met an inmate like John Constantine. As for why Constantine is in a Mexican prison?

Question: Revenge is SO good this season but Louise is really starting to scare me! Is she leaving soon? – Jeaneen

Kristin: The scares will keep on comin’ as the crazy Southern belle is stickin’ around for a while. The show is currently looking to cast her older brother named Lyman Ellis. Handsome and driven, he’s able to go from charming to conniving in a heartbeat and is super manipulative. So…he’s a politician, of course!

Question: Will Jerry Tyson be making a comeback this season on Castle? – InspiredByStana

Kristin: Sure sounds like it! According to executive producer David Amann, “We plan to revisit the 3XK storyline in a significant way. We’re working on that episode right now.”

Question: When will the “missing 2 months” storyline come back up on Castle? – AlwaysCastle47

Kristin: It’s definitely not gone for good! According to Amann, “This is a mystery that’s very personal to Castle and he will definitely delve back into it.”

Question: How will the Mark of Cain continue to affect Dean and what’s going to happen to him on Supernatural? – Welovejackles

Kristin: Executive producer Jeremy Carver told us that’s going to be a huge part of the rest of the season. “The [brothers’] newfound rediscovery of [their] bond is really put to the test in the coming episodes,” he says. “Their troubles are not over yet for either of them. Dean’s not quite out of the woods yet regarding the Mark of Cain and Sam is not quite out of the woods as to what that means to him as well.”

Question: Got any Jane the Virgin scoop for me? – Monica

Kristin: Let’s just say Jane does the walk of shame in an upcoming episode. Yeah, that kind of walk of shame. Commence all your pearl-clutching now, especially since Jane encounters nuns during her embarrassing morning after!

Question: Got anything on Red Band Society? – Maddie

Kristin: Prepare to meet Leo’s parents in an episode later this season. Oh, and two of the Red Banders will sleep together. (Emma is not one of them!)

Question: Can I get an update on my favorite mechanic, Raven from The 100? – Sam

Kristin: She may have been out of commission after her surgery (without anesthesia!), but she won’t stay down for long. “She was out of last week’s episode and in my mind, she was just sleeping that whole time, recovering from her surgery,” Lindsey Morgan explains. “It’s amazing that she’s even alive! We pick up with her at the brink of starting her new life, being handicapped and paralyzed in one leg. She needs to figure out what that means and how she can live her life and how she can even function. The opening scene is one of my favorites, and it’s really daunting to Raven to face that obstacle.” Expect to see her stumble (literally and figuratively) a lot in this week’s episode and on.

That’s it. Enjoy!
