Scoop! From Everwood to Los Angeles: Emily VanCamp shakes up the Walker dynasty!

Following months of casting deliberations (and a Hillary Duff scare) Canadian-born "Everwood" star Emily Van Camp, who had been screened out early on in the process was ultimately chosen for the coveted role of Rebecca, the illegitimate daughter of William Walker (Tom Skerritt) and Holly (Patricia Wettig).

According to available spoilers, Rebecca will make an appearance in episode #17 (airs at some point in March) when Holly calls her home for the first time after 2 years, telling her she has come into a windfall, but not revealing where the money had come from.

Emily Van Camp is scheduled to start filming her scenes this week on Friday. Touchstone Studio has declined comment.

ABC has announced that Margot Kidder who played the original Lois Lane in Superman I and II will make a special guest appearance in the upcoming sweeps episode of "Brothers and Sisters".

"Sex and the City" star Jason Lewis’s stay has been extended from 4 to 7 episodes. Also, Canadian-born actor Luke MacFarlane is coming back for a special February sweeps episode "Valentine's Day Massacre".

The writers are apparently satisfied with the execution of the storyline and have now extended Jason Lewis' role. That means he will remain on the show through early April.

GREAT episode tonight!

I loved the beginning, and then '24 hours earlier', and then seeing it end. Great stuff!

I'm happy that Justin and Tyler are back together - they are so cute together.

I loved the Kevin/Chad/Scotty triangle tonight. I felt bad for all 3 guys really...in the end when Chad said he would finally tell his girlfriend :( Then Scotty saying goodbye forever after he realized he was used to make Chad feel jealous...and then Kevin :( Scotty was so right though - Kevin is in Scotty's shoes now with Chad. He understands how Scotty felt when Kevin was too scared to go out with him. You have to love yourself before you can love others.

Nora and her friend was hilarious - whoever that friend was - she was awesome! Loved her!

Finally - I'm warming up to Kitty and the Senator - they were pretty hot in bed. Rob Lowe is so sexy. Anyway, even though I'm still a little upset they dropped Warren and the whole TV show - I'm starting to enjoy the Senator stuff.

Can't wait for next week!

Kitty sleeping with the "sentator"? !!! That's just insanely hot.

Kitty, how can you have doubts?

You have a NAKED SENATOR in bed.

Idiot!!! lol.

And yes, who WAS the liberal hippy friend of Nora's? I'm conservative but I'm intrigued by her. You can tell in real life she's probably a feminist groupie or Gloria Steinem's best friend. It's written ALL over her face and disposition.

Anyway, I've been thinking about this for a LONG time and I'm just going to say it. I think B&S writers took a cue from "Passions." Literally.

On "Passions," CHAD HARRIS-CRANE is the down low resident of Harmony.

On "Brothers and Sisters," CHAD is a SOAP STAR who is the down low resident of -- wherever--.

Coincidence? I SO think not.

The best part of the episode was Nora and her friend getting stoned :lol:

Poor Sarah :( She was not having a good episode. The only one who didn't get any sex on Valentine's day, and her brother is going to team up with their father's mistress. Poor Sarah :(

I like Kitty and the Senator. I hope Rob Lowe eventually becomes a permanent cast member.

    • Great episode, better than what the spoilers said. The gambling story was tolerable but Jon Lindstrom sucks in the role. Ambyr Michelle continues to shine. The diner and country club scenes were very well executed.  The Jan and Leslie scenes were very good! My favorite is Eva, now followed by Nicole.
    • Today's show was good. The only part I didn't care for were the Derek/Ashley scenes. I think they are bland together and Derek is very bland by himself. He is the least interesting character on the show IMO. I don't think they have much chemistry together. I appreciated Jan's reaction to Leslie. I like how regular/realistic her and Mona are as characters. Jan came across as very believable of being appalled and even hurt by Leslie's treatment of them and towards Eva in the diner.  Leslie continues to try and manipulate people with IMO her fake caring routine, only to show her true colors after she's confronted/called out for her treatment of others. I continue to dislike the way she mistreats Eva. Speaking of Eva she was great again today. I love her and I like how Martin comforted her in the diner. I liked that Vernon showed concern for her as well. They (especially Martin) will come around quicker to her before others (like the Dupree women) will. I also am glad to see her and Ted continue to bond and him behaving like a father towards her/helping her. He's the only one in her life who is fully trying to stand by her. I look forward to seeing their relationship grow.
    • Xander was screaming at Felicity.  He did do something wrong.  Felicity was clearly upset by it and Cat/Chad told him to stop.  That's fair.  No one deserves to be yelled at their job-and even I think this plot point is too preachy.  It's not acceptable behavior for anyone to do that.   
    • When Derek finally appears with only a towel, and his chest and pecs/nipples are finally shown, I say yes.

    • Now, actually not. That thought had not even made it into my head, so, no, so far anyway, I've not seen that. Haven't seen today yet. What you're describing is warped & I think she's feeling genuine empathy & sister bond. 
    • Xander was the bigger person apologizing to Cat when he didn't do anything wrong.  he wasn't yelling at Felicity whatsoever, he was asking if she possibly had given them the wrong order by mistake.  He was trying to get to the bottom of what was going on, but Chad/Cat were trying to white knight Felicity even though Felicity was being treated just like anyone else in that situation.   She was the one to bring the order out to them, and usually the person that brings the order out is the one that puts the order together.    I'm still getting a read on the Cat character.   I think she seems to work well when interacting with everyone other than Chad.   Perhaps the new writers can move Cat out of Chad's orbit into another orbit. Paulina has been written quite well the few times she's been on since the writer change.  I think Jackee is enjoying the new writing.. you can tell when she's on screen.  
    • LOL - well, Peter was included in the grandkids' section, each named specifically with their $100K trusts.  It must have been the abs...

        In Henry's will, he said it had to do with Hart having a chance at being a better person than his father, since his father isn't providing for him (I'm paraphrasing here, but it was about Roger).  Still a little surprised...
    • I'm glad the truth is all out regarding Roman and Kate's secrets from each other, and also happy Roman didn't make much of the letter forgery, because why would he even care? They are a good solid couple. However, not to be mean, when Roman had his little flashback at the DiMera mansion he seemed more like an old man that was lost. How wonderfully aggravating that we still don't know what the hell happened with Johnny the night EJ was shot. I can't wait to find out. I've my feelings clear on Paulina, but she was definitely written much more adult and Jackée even seemed a bit toned down, for the better. Nothing boring about either scenes for me. I like the little drama between Xander and Cat, for the newness of the interaction alone. AnnaLynne McCord is much better at material where she's not acting dementedly lovesick. Seeing that side to Cat was integral to remembering she's not a moron, and I am definitely intrigued by the heck could be calling her. Kevin Lambert returning is a cute little surprise. I never watched Chadwick Hopson in the role though, was he any good?

    • I would love if Sarah were already pregnant and then, even with the reveal that she knew about the letter, that she and Xander would work on things to keep their family intact. But I fear that time is running out. Whatever Philip is doing is probably going to mess up everything. I do like that Kayla and Sarah mentioned the Horton legacy with the hospital and that Kayla would much prefer Xander financing it over EJ. Xander is suddenly Horton adjacent. Belle is as usual a massive hypocrite whining about 'everything' Xander has done to her family when EJ raped her sister, kept her cancer ridden toddler from her, helped Nicole keep the baby she had stolen from Sami for a year, shot her dad in the head, and as recently as last year railroaded her innocent teen nephew into prison where he was beaten up. Sure, Xander shot Brady and Marlena but both of them seem to be over it. Cat should have just graciously accepted Xander's apology. I actually like that he treated Felicity like anybody else and did not coddle her. I hope we see him apologizing though. I wonder if Cat knows that Xander shot their granddad Kon dead last year? She might like him better if she knew. I wonder who is calling her? My money is on Gwen for some reason. I feel like Cat and Chad will get comfy and then we will find out Abby is out there and Gwen has had her. EJ and Cat were far more palatable than Chad and Cat, but EJ makes everybody easier to tolerate. Roman and Kate vs Johnny and Paulina... not sure which were more boring. I guess I'll go with Roman and Kate because he speaks so darn slowly now. Philip is entertaining the heck out of me. I hope he ends up the hero who saves Bo. I think it would be hysterical if he managed to get his hands on the Versovix and EJ ends up buying a useless money pit of a hospital.
