Before you head to bed, snack on these bits of TV news.

You wouldn't expect "Emmys" and "Kate Gosselin" in the same sentence (unless there was a "never" in there somewhere), but the reality-show star is reportedly in line to appear in the Emmy telecast's opening to help host Jimmy Fallon score some laughs. [E!]

Bronson Pinchot has scored a guest role on "Chuck" -- and no, our hero (Zachary Levi) isn't visiting Mypos. Chuck will be undercover at Milan's Fashion Week early in Season 4, and he meets Pinchot's character there. [TV Guide]

That's not a Photoshop job: Weezer's new album "Hurley" does in fact feature a photo of "Lost's" Jorge Garcia as its cover art. [Spinner]

Really? ABC has picked up eight more episodes of its iffily rated reality show "Shark Tank" -- three of which will feature comedian Jeff Foxworthy as a guest shark. [Deadline]

MTV now has a TJ -- a Twitter Jockey. She is Gabi Gregg, aka @gabifresh, and she'll be the 140-character face of the network's social media efforts. [MTV]

Speaking of social media: Comedy Central has greenlit a pilot with comedian Dwayne Perkins called "Dwaynebook." Think "Tosh.0" but devoted mostly to Facebook and Twitter. [The Wrap]
