Television’s biggest fall sweeps month is always a bonanza for viewers, as stars and stunts punctuate many storylines. There are some special treats coming up on CW dramas, such as popstar Lady Gaga performing her new single “Bad Romance” on the Nov. 16 episode of Gossip Girl, hints People; and an Upper East Side cameo by Spice Girl Victoria Beckham (Posh). Also, who do you expect to see first—Serena’s elusive father…or the allegedly-dead Bart Bass? Hmm. Moving to Tuesdays, conniving film villain Kelly Lynch settles in on 90210 as Ivy’s (Gillian Zinser) hot mama. Wonder how dating her daughter’s English teacher will play in the West Bev lounge? Over on Melrose Place, Nick Zano (pictured) has officially joined the cast; and no, we haven’t seen the last of Sydney (Laura Leighton). Turns out, Amanda had some unfinished business with the red-haired temptress, and that’ll unfold when Heather Locklear debuts Nov. 17. Fans of The Vampire Diaries can begin debating which of the new characters is secretly a vampire slayer! And don’t forget Legend of the Seeker, which premieres this weekend with two new recurring characters to cause havoc for Richard and Kahlan. Jolene Blaylock, best known as the Vulcan T’Pol on Enterprise, portrays a mysterious Sister of the Dark, whose powerful magic could destroy the Confessor. And Michael Whalley, 26, brings a bit of levity to his thorny role as Flynn. The actors have completed filming nearly half of Season 2 in New Zealand, and took some time for an interview with WBNX earlier today. We’ll post some of their comments here soon.
