planning a big cliffhanger for the winter finale, similar to last December’s Jackson/April wedding brouhaha? —Jared

end with a cliffhanger, but whether or not it’s on par with the climax in the 2013 fall finale is probably subjective. (For example, Mer/Der fans will likely deem this year’s cliffhanger a bigger deal than last year’s.) Bonus Scoop: It was incorrect of me to use the singular form of cliffhanger in that first sentence. There are actual

cliffhangers in the Nov. 20 installment. And if you’re wondering how long you’ll be be biting your nails down to nubs, details on

‘s 2015 premiere date can be found here.

Ausiello: Showrunner David Amann confirms that

will resume its springtime two-parter tradition, somewhere around Episodes 14/15. Perhaps to dig deep into the mystery of Rick’s vanishing? “We think that it will deal with that in some way,” Amann allows, “but it won’t be exclusively about that.”

Ausiello: It airs Monday, Dec. 8, it’s titled “Bad Santa,” and it will include the culmination of “some evolution in the Lanie and Esposito relationship,” says Amann. (And yes, the EP is aware that Rick still owes Kate a gift from Christmas 2012, but he is mum on whether it’s coming.)

Ausiello: Felicia Day’s Charlie will have a traveling companion (of sorts) when she resurfaces in Episode 10. According to Robbie Thompson, who penned the hour, Charlie comes back from Oz “under precarious circumstances” and “she’s brought something back that’s very dangerous.”

Question: Will Juliette give birth before

Ausiello: Nope. Her little demon spawn won’t make his/her arrival until 2015. Bonus Scoop: Look for Layla to hook up with someone very unexpected. Deposit your most educated guesses in the comments.

premiering on my birthday (November 6th), can you please share some goodies of what to expect? Pretty please? I’ll share my birthday cake! —Ally

Ausiello: Didn’t you just have a birthday two weeks ago when you were harassing me for

‘s final episodes will put “some real strain” on Mozzie and Neal’s friendship, executive producer Jeff Eastin reveals. While Peter and the con man are taking down the Pink Panthers, Moz is “left out in the cold a little bit,” it seems. But don’t fret, “the reason for that strain will be obvious once you get to the finale.”

crossover, which episode is Episode 1 and which is Episode 2? I thought I read that

was first, but since it was pre-empted this week, doesn’t that mean Episode 1 will air

Ausiello: My brain exploded about halfway through your question, Brian, but I think this is the info you’re looking for: 

’s episode, “Flash vs. Arrow,” will air Tuesday, Dec. 2.

’s “The Brave and the Bold” arrives the following night, Wednesday, Dec. 3.

Question: We’ve seen some Roy and Felicity interactions this season on

, and they were fun! Are there more coming? —Paula C.

are,” Emily Bett Rickards reports. “I’ve been getting to work with Colton [Haynes] quite a bit, actually, which is a dream for the both of us!”

Bonus Scoop: Rickards also confirmed during her Q&A with Matt Mitovich that Arrow will have a holiday-timed episode, hence why we spotted a menorah on Felicity’s desk during a recent set visit.

 completely written Jess Weixler (Robyn) out of the season now that Kalinda is with Florrick Agos and Lockhart? —Jordan Ausiello: Robyn’s not

set to appear in any of the show’s remaining Season 6 episodes, but I’d be shocked — no, make that 

Ausiello: Will and Mac’s wedding seemed like a sure thing at the end of Season 2, didn’t it? But star Jeff Daniels plays very coy when TVLine asks him whether the audience will actually get to watch the newshounds say their vows in the show’s upcoming final run of episodes. “I do know there was a ring. We ended Season 2 with a ring, and we’re talking about bridesmaids in the first episode of Season 3, so… perhaps,” he says. “I know Will and Mac want to. There are some obstacles thrown up in our way. Whether we overcome them or not in the second half [of the season] is to be seen. 

’s Bitsie Tulloch play Adalind-as-Juliette last season. Please tell me we’ll get to see that again? —Tanya

Ausiello: We may not see that exact scenario repeat itself, the show’s resident Hexenbiest Claire Coffee tells TVLine, but “There’s something that happens this season that I’ve been able to repay the favor a little bit.”

Question: Please tell me you have the lowdown on whether or not Katrina is trustworthy on

Ausiello: I’m still not sure we can trust the witch, especially when she does something like what Katia Winter previewed during TVLine’s set visit earlier this season. The actress said that even though Katrina isn’t on Henry’s side, in an upcoming episode, “she pretends to be for a little bit. She wants to get close to him so he can come back to her and Ichabod.” As you may expect, “That causes a big rift between her and Abbie, because Abbie obviously sees him as a big threat.”

, especially the dynamic between Elizabeth and Henry. Any scoop on them? They need a date night ASAP. Thanks! —Emily

Ausiello: Maybe the Secretary of State will get that couple’s night when her father-in-law Phil shows up? Henry’s “blue collar and larger than life” dad will appear in Episode 13. Expect the steelworker-turned-union rep to be cantankerous and to have a giant chip on his shoulder when it comes to those who are well off — which is why he and Elizabeth will never be besties.

Ausiello: Sorry, but I’m not ready to move past No. 200 just yet, especially since fresh intel continues to pour in on the milestone hour. The latest buzz from the set is that the episode’s rapidly expanding guest cast will also include… Pelant! Yep, Andrew Leeds will appear in the Hitchcockian “200th in the 10th,” and he’ll be joined by four other late additions: Michael Grant Terry (squintern Wendell), Eugene Byrd (squintern Clark), Pej Vahdat (squintern Arastoo) and Michael Badalucco (Brennan’s ex-assistant Scott).

Ausiello: If you’ve been missing Nathan Parsons’ Jackson, you’ll definitely want to tune in next Monday (psst: he returns in that episode!). “He’s been through a really rough time,” executive producer Michael Narducci reminds us. “He was kind of making a play to be alpha to his werewolves and then he was totally usurped by Francesca. Now that Francesca’s gone, the witches have filled that vacuum. So he’s a leader without a people. That’s where we find him. He’s got an interesting journey to get back on track.”

and I’m not happy it got cancelled. Any scoop on the final episodes? —Chrissy

Ausiello: The NBC rom-com is not going down without an “F Is for Fight, Fight, Fight.” That’s the title of Thursday’s episode, which finds Andrew “battling the idea of, ‘Am I tough enough for Zelda?\'” actor Ben Feldman previews. “Does she need a tough guy or does she need this sweet, sensitive type? I go back and forth in this episode. There’s a little bit of fighting. There’s a little bit of sass. There’s a little bit of disappointment. And hilarity always ensues.”

Ausiello: Surprisingly, no teeth will be bared when Sherlock meets Joan’s new boyfriend in next Thursday’s episode. “Because Sherlock does not have romantic feelings for Joan, it’s not as uncomfortable as it might be,” EP Rob Doherty tells TVLine. “I would say a year ago, he may have seen Andrew as a threat to the partnership and to the work that they do. But for having gone down the road that he did, knowing that he made some

mistakes when he left for London, he’s hardly in a position to be judgmental of the relationship.”

Question: As promised, here is me in my Smurf costume (in exchange for that

scoop last week). It’s kind of a hybrid between Papa Smurf and an edgier Smurf since the pants are dark blue and not the traditional white. I hope this effort is appreciated, because, I have to be honest with you, the last little bit about being “banned for

” if I didn’t follow through seemed a bit extreme. —Anand

Ausiello: My column, my rules. And you look like Papa’s drunk brother after a run-in with a honeybadger, but I will allow it. You are hereby declared an Ask Ausiello member in good standing for life.

That’s a wrap! Please send questions, comments, and anonymous tips to askausiello@tvline.com. (

Are Emily Bett Rickards and Colton Haynes dating in real life? They seem like they are from their twitter posts.

They are yeah, have been for quite a while.

Colton Haynes is gay. Google image his name + gay.

He’s actually probably bisexual, as he’s had girlfriends and boyfriends, in no specific order of preference. He and Emily have been dating for almost a year, I believe.

This. It’s not an either/or spectrum, Becca; your small-brained heteronormativity is showing. And your knuckles are dragging a teeny bit.

People CAN actually be interested in men *and* in women! Like, zOMG! 4 Reals!

I found the google search suspect. I think he’s dating Emily.

I’m guessing that Charlie’s traveling companion from Oz will be Toto, but with a twist. Can’t wait to see more Felicia Day on Supernatural. Also, can someone please get Ms. Day and Carrie Preston together to play daughter and mother in something? Or even have Felicia pop up on The Good Wife as Elsbeth’s younger sister.

I really hope that this time we’ll also get a Jo/Alex cliffhanger. They haven’t given them a proper storyline this season yet and I’m still waiting :(

Yes, please. Maybe this time we can get a proposal that she’s aware of and will say yes.

Question – Will the GA recap be up tonight (Wednesday) since episode 6 is on in Canada?

Who will Layla hook up with? My guess would be Jeff cause he’s the only one she shares scenes with… and they currently seem to hate each other.. so i guess it would be unexpected.

I was thinking it would be Luke’s son (since he’s clearly not into Maddie)

I immediately assumed Jeff, but Luke would be a reallllly interesting hookup! Good excuse for Rayna to dump him.

Probably Jeff… Couldn’t see Luke and Layla crossing paths and I can see Luke’s flaw that breaks up him and Rayna being jealousy…

Woot! two on Castle. Seriously addicted to this show.

Me too Matthew! I don’t watch anything else! This is the only ADDICTION I’m proud to say I have!! It just keeps getting better and better! Have all 6 seasons.

I really hope that Booth gets to shoot Pelant again in the 50’s version of Bones…and Brennan can pop him one too for good measure….cos he be evil :p

I agree, but only if it happens during the cold open and never mentioned again in the episode. I hated the Pelant arc.

Yeah, I stopped watching during that plotline

Is there any news or updates on NCIS LOS ANGELES episode called spiral ?

I am pretty sure they don’t check comments for new questions. Got to use the email address above.

Also Brennan’s oldest intern was a really great addition to the team in S4…if he came back to present day Bones it would be welcomed by me anyways

Yes, bring back the oldest intern, he’s about the same age now of all the other interns who never seem to move on.

My guess-Layla will hook up with Teddy on Nashville. The two people with the absolute worst luck in chooding romantic partners in Nashville get together. It’s actually a match made in heaven. ..only problem is that if Maddie will get her as a new mom on top of her 3 dad she may runaway for good.

I can imagine Jeff hooking Layla and Teddy up!!

I thought the Christmas episode of Castle was called Have Yourself a Mobster Little Chistmas?

Dear Michael: Do you have any reliable scoop for the final half season of “Mad Men”. I’m paticularly interested in the fates of Joan and Don. If it comes from you, I know it’s reliable

I can’t wait to see the Flash/Arrow crossover. I hope that there will be a crossover between the Originial/Vampire Diaries next year . I hope that the writer will finally tell who killed Sara and why the killer wanted her dead.

I am frankly stumped on who Layla will hook up with. Given the way they just threw Juliette at guys, they can probably find a reason for Layla to sleep with any guy she shares a scene with. I guess the most unexpected character would be an unknown male bartender at the blue bird or that guy Will had a fling with because at this point anyone walking, talking, and straight isn’t that unexpected.

Do you have any additional info leading up to the mid season finale of The Walking Dead? ..the episode titles keep changing.

Do you have any additional info leading up to the mid season finale of The Walking Dead? ..maybe involving Daryl & Carol’s ATL ep?

Bring Deanmon back, bring Cain back,++++ action to Supernatural ….. I want is the circus catches fire!😜😜😜

I can just imagine how much stronger that rift between Abbie and Katrina with everything regarding Henry will get-hoo, boy. Tense times ahead, for sure. I do hope that it doesn’t sever any chance of them becoming allies in general, though-Abbie’s worked alongside other people she’s had rifts and trust issues with (Jenny and Hawley, respectively), so I don’t doubt she can do that here, too. I’m all for Abbie and Katrina eventually working together to handle Henry, whichever way they choose to go with that storyline.
