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.

    • Spoke with my contacts at Lifetime. As of now, there is nothing to share in terms of updates. 
    • Which is still a form of manipulation. Granted it won't work because Ted isn't interested in Leslie at all no matter how much she tries to make him look like a horrible person. When you consider the situation with Hayley it does make sense why Anita would take that approach.
    • Another good one and great episode to start off the week. Confrontations, character moments, movement, and an awful lot of bubbles on display. lol.    I've found myself liking Sara Bibel breakdowns. And this episode might be why. I sense movement of plot going on. And Jazmen being on script duty has already become a highlight for me. So this episode dealing with more fallout from the SilkPress/Eva reveal was another good one. And even got a solid B plot moving in the Vanessa/Doug/Joey storyline...which I just said yesterday...has been the only one of the B plots...that has real build to it so far.    You are not a real soap pariah until you get dragged and a community treats you as such. So basically another old school soap vibe that Eva is giving me. Watching her trying to find her footing only to be read by just about everyone she has encountered has been great. It makes her so rootable. And she's played by an excellent actress. Cuz that quivering lip at the end with her and Anita...ooooo some of you all seem heated for Anita making poor girl cry even though it's her fault. That's great acting. Not to mention writing.    I also love that the side character got their point of view. I loved Mona moving about town trying to get info to avenge Nicole in a way. And she dragged Eva. She read Silk Press Sheila. And that 'enjoy the burn' was well-said. And did I see a spark with Mona and Randy? Hmmm. I don't mind.

          I also didn't mind that Martin/Kat scene. I enjoy their sibling relationship so far. And I feel like the right thing to do to keep them close as they support their mother. It even made sense that Martin would soften to the idea of Eva as part of the family given their brief scene at the start of this storyline. Meanwhile, NO from Kat. lol. And she's already questioning the DNA test...OF COURSE SHE IS. But again...that avail...her and Eva being the SAME age. Twins. I just felt the writers are really foreshadowing that heavy. Meanwhile, the SilkPress saga is far from over.   I love the parade of Ted Visitors. LMAO!!! I thought Dani vs Ted was pretty good. But I about fell out when Anita walked up in there like old school Sonny Corinthos. And I hollered with Anita wiping the floor with Ted with Dani in the background like Jason Morgan. Watch your step, Theodore. Anita was giving Boss Bitca and I was living.    That said...I didn't like Anita making poor Eva cry. But as was said above...the stuff with Hayley is still too fresh on the Duprees' mind. So sadly understandable, Anita set down the law.    Uh oh. Dani saw Vanessa with Joey. Granted they are not the BFFs, but I do hope that that means we are getting a Dani/Vanessa scene. And I loved that we got another step in the B storyline. Doug fighting (and failing) in his addiction. Meanwhile, Vanessa resisted hers. And Joey did not look happy.    And saying the best for last. I LOVE Nicole vs Silk Press Sheila. Ooooo Nicole got under her skin good. And I loved it. I also hollered at Silk Press couldn't even be fake nice for 5 whole minutes to her. DD did soooooooo good. The body language. The looks. The inflections on just the right words. I LOOOVVVE that confrontation and looking forward to more since she clearly verbally cracked SilkPress's face. Meanwhile, I was just as taken aback at Ted showing up at Silk Press Sheila's place. I also thought it was another fantasy. Nope. And then SilkPress put the moves on him and went just a little more cray cray in the coda.    Just such a great episode.

    • Nope still in development. ABC/Disney are having their upfronts today though, so there's a very slight hope we might get an update.
    • Has anyone ever posted January and February 1974? I can't find them in the 'Look Back to 75' thread. Thanks.
    • Did January and February 1974 DSN ever get posted? I can't seem to find it in this thread.
    • I agree. Especially after SilkPress got back to her apartment and started to mock Nicole. Her dislike for Nicole and seeing her as a threat to her getting Teddy Bear is growing worse. So I could see her pulling a kidnapping on Nicole at some point. If anything she was going there to poke the bear and got pressed (pun unintended) when the bear gathered her.   Completely understandable.
