Jennafisher Why not start the week with another quickie Q&A? I've got Office scoop and some info on ER and Bones as well...

The guy from Mad Men is trying to steal Pam! What's going to happen? Will she decide to stay in New York? -Maria
All I can tell you is that Pam has a lot of thinking to do and will most likely make up her mind this week.

Any Office gossip for me? -Matt
Remember how Ryan was sort of fawning over Kelly and her Carrie Bradshaw Halloween costume? Well, I'm hearing the former hot shot has a few more moves up his sleeve...

Will Michael still be crying over Holly on The Office this week? -Jenna
A Dunder-Mifflin business trip to Winnepeg, Canada may act as a nice distraction for M.S. I'm told he's heading north with Andy and Oscar in tow this Thursday. Word is, we'll be getting some good French Canadian jokes out of the whole deal.

Anthonyedwards Dr. Greene returns to the ER this week!! -Bill
Indeed, and the Anthony Edwards-filled episode is nothing short of heartbreaking. I cried through most of it. As I first reported back in early September, Dr. Banfield (Angela Bassett) and her husband are dealing with tragic death of their child, and Thursday's hour will feature flashbacks of the day he passed away in Trauma One at County General. Dr. Greene was the physician on the case and we'll see him powering through it, though he's supposed to be undergoing a chemo treatment at the time.

Gates and Sam are moving in together?! Any idea how that's gonna go? -P
Seems the Gates-Taggart merger is going swimmingly so far. The words "never been happier" may even be whispered this week... By the way, we have not seen the end of that Iraq war vet whom Gates found on the street last Thursday. That drama is going to be drawn out over several eps.

Marisacoughlin Thanks for the Bones scoop! Got more? -Michelle
I'm hearing that early next year, Brennan and Sweets will be run off the road while investigating the death of a young woman who was in possession of a valuable movie prop. And for those hoping that Booth will be the one administering a little TLC to Brennan post-accident, don't hold your breath. It seems that Booth will be mostly MIA in this hour, and Agent Payton Perotta (Marisa Coughlin) will be the one taking his place as Brennan's partner. This has me thinking that Coughlin's sticking around for more than the one ep we were originally told about...

Thoughts? Think there might be a bit of tension/competition for Booth's affection between Perotta and Bones?

Thanks for the Bones scoop! There is going to be sparks beween Booth and Perotta - about time too! Perotta and Brennan fighting over Booth, heck yeah! Booth never gets any love and Brennan on the other, in Season 4, I have started to lose count!

couglin will also be in the hero in the hold episode. so she will definitely be in three episodes.

Thanks for the Bones scoop. I read these sides, too. ;)

Mama | Nov 10, 2008 1:04:51 PM | #

Thanks, about time Booth got a girlfriend! He is a hottie!

Thanks for the "must-see" Thursday scoop.

I will let my love for both you and The Office not let the fact that you called it "Winnipeg, Canada" as opposed to Winnipeg, Manitoba (funny, we never call it Los Angles, America!!) bother me nor worry about the fact that, although there are Franophone Canadians living in "The Peg", it's not really know for being all that "French Canadian". These things will not make Michael Scott's humourous ignorance any less funny though.

Can't wait for that ER...but I will have the Kleenex box ready!!!

uh oh, shall i switch to Winnepeg, Manitoba? i don't know... i hear ya, but many non-Canadians might get confused... us 'Mericans usually refer to the various lovely locations in the great white north as city-comma-Canada... I know it's Toronto, Ontario, but I usually say Toronto, Canada. Is that awful?!!

korbi_ghosh | Nov 10, 2008 2:05:36 PM | #

Not awful my friend, just typical! ;)

Even a "Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada" would be better but darn it all, that would be awfully knit-picky of me to ask, wouldn't it?!

And I agree with you because you need to make sure that all of your many fans around the world know exactly where you mean!

(and btw, I love me some HIMYM and classic Simpsons...both of which frequently rag on Canada...so bring it on Dunder-Mifflin...you know we'll love you for it!!)

"Can't wait for that ER...but I will have the Kleenex box ready!!!" Like you also, can't wait for this episode. For a guy, tears streamed down my face when watching Abby's 'The Book of Abby' last appearance on the show. I'm still a huge fan of ER and am going to miss this show. It will be akin to loosing someone very close to you. I've heard that George Clooney may make an appearance. The writing and the acting is still superb and IMHO - Grey's Anatomy has nothing on ER. Thanks Michael Crichton!!!!!!!!!!!

Here here Christopher!

(I literally sobbed when Pratt died...and I wasn't even a huge Pratt fan! And no worries, my George will be back...and knowing the relationship between ER and the NBC Promo Department, the latter will probably spoil that surprise for the former!)

Kath | Nov 10, 2008 4:54:05 PM | #

don't worry, kath... just a matter of time 'til we start calling it "winterpeg" and it'll be too cold to type! ;)

jeff | Nov 11, 2008 2:35:32 PM | #

I'm so excited about the office coming to canada I just wish it was set here in Vancouver, not Winnipeg (it's too cold there and boring----sorry winterpeggers :S) but oh well. I'm slightly hesitant about the jokes that will be made. I'm all for them if they're 'classic office style jokes' but for some reason, when any shows does 'canada' it always seems to come off as rude and stupid. but i'm sure they will do a great job. also,i'm a little surprised at there being french canadian jokes about winnipeg. yeah there are francophones living there but they aren't known for that at all. i mean not at all---i never think winnipeg---ahh french canadians but i'm sure it'll be entertaining.

Boy, I am gonna miss ER sooooooooooo much!! One of my favorite shows, this year has been so good!!

Michele | Nov 12, 2008 9:09:49 PM | #

Thanks for the scoop! I love bones and always will! I have a bad feeling about this episode! Thanks again!

Becca | Nov 13, 2008 3:51:40 PM | #

omg i cant believe that bones and the other fbi agent are going to have competiotion

olyvia | Nov 20, 2008 3:55:39 PM | #

is bones and brinnan ever gonna hook up

ashley | Nov 21, 2008 6:02:21 AM | #

I think there should be a fight between Brennen and Perotta so that way Booth knows Brennen likes him.

Erin | Nov 21, 2008 3:37:31 PM | #

Booth knows that she likes him. The looks they exchange speak volumes without words.

Cathy | Nov 26, 2008 6:54:07 PM | #

Can anyone tell me the name of the song that was playing at the end of the show on Wed? I really liked the song and would like to know what it is.

Diane | Nov 28, 2008 6:14:31 PM | #

thanks for the bones scoop. but does anyone know why there arent going to be any more episodes until january??? there isnt even going to be a christmas episode!! christmas is an important time for brennan.

jessica | Nov 29, 2008 9:43:46 PM | #

OHH good, Was not about time.
when do we saw a kiss between bones and booth.

acs | Nov 30, 2008 11:16:53 AM | #

I don't want Booth to have a girlfriend.

Brennan is done with other men now, it seems.

So maybe they can move in the direction of almost togetherness.

Bones is my husbands and my favorite show. I hope it will be on for many years.
