The story line has left fans of the critically acclaimed drama surprisingly split after three seasons of following the seductive and mysterious private investigator's every move. "Some characters you actually don't want to see that much backstory. We're adjusting," he tells TVGuide.com. "No matter where we went, this was not a place where the audience wanted to go."

"We're trying to get Dallas for more than one as we are trying to get Stockard for more than one," Robert King tells TVGuide.com. "You never know what you're going to get when you throw people together but after the first day of dailies, we said, 'OK, let's try to book him and her for the future.'"

News of Gustin's return as Sebastian comes just weeks after Canadian actor-singer Nolan Gerard Funk was tapped to play the Warblers' new frontman Hunter. The rookie's first order of business? Bringing Blaine back into the fold so the DAW's can win a national championship.
"I am half Puerto Rican, a quarter German and a quarter black," she recalls in the THIS IS HOW I MADE IT episode airing Saturday at 12 p.m. on MTV.

FINOLA HUGHES AND JASON THOMPSON TAPE WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE APPEARANCE
In honor of GENERAL HOSPITAL's 50th anniversary, Finola Hughes (Anna) and Jason Thompson (Patrick) were invited to compete on WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE!

Stanchfield will reprise her role as Castle's ex-wife Meredith in a January episode. And much to the chagrin of Castle (Nathan Fillion), she'll make herself right at home.
It's always been a good show, but it's had issues that kept it shy of greatness: a lot of Braverman storylines to juggle, characters getting lost in the shuffle or relegated to comic relief, and a tendency to be emotionally manipulative. Right now, though, PARENTHOOD is the best it's ever been. It's mastered its tone, its fantastic cast is getting well-used, and it's jerking tears (and laughs) honestly.
