Will Criminal Minds: Evolution deal out a death? Whose love life will heat up on Chicago Fire? Which Rookie romance will be put to the test? Read on for answers to those questions plus scoop on many other shows. (You can and should email any brand-new Qs to InsideLine@tvline.com.)
Will Chicago Fire‘s Carver ever have a love life? –Liz
“Carver (played by Jake Lockett) will definitely have upcoming love interests, including one who is a very familiar face at 51,” Chi Fi EP and co-showrunner Andrea Newman tells Inside Line. “This, of course, will cause all kinds of intrigue at the firehouse.”
I saw you tweeting at General Hospital star Lisa LoCicero about her CSI: Vegas tease. Do you have any idea who she’s playing? –Deb
You mean besides a self-described B-I-T-C-#? I can confirm that the lovely Lisa Lo will be seen in this season’s 20th episode as Tawny, a primetime news anchor (and wife of the town’s mayor).
When Calls The Heart has been on hiatus for a LONG time, and I’m dying to know: What can Chris McNally and/or Erin Krakow tease about Elizabeth/Lucas’s relationship, specifically their wedding?! –Hanan
I got your impassioned Q in front of Krakow, and the Hallmark series’ star/EP was generous enough to write back, “Let’s just say that they are still learning new things about each other. There are ups and downs, as in any relationship, but in the end everything is as it should be.”

1) It’s not long before the new villain proves himself a seriously scary guy, and 2) the season contains a romantic entanglement we did not see coming.I’ve really been loving Hallmark’s new series, The Way Home. Any word on how many episodes Season 1 will have? –Paige
Season 1 has 10 episodes, and because the family/time travel drama is taking a knee on Super Bowl Sunday, the finale will land on Sunday, March 26 (and at a special time). -

Episode 2 of what we now know to be the NBC drama’s farewell season will a big one for new series regular Anya Banerjee, who is playing MI6 officer Siya Malik. Watch for the offspring of Parminder Nagra’s late Meera Malik to show off some mad skills that would make Mom proud!Will we find out in this season of The Flash who hacked Chester’s computer in Season 8? Because I don’t recall getting an answer. –KoS
“Yes and no,” says Flash showrunner Eric Wallace. “When we thought we were getting a full 20 episodes, there was an entire storyline about the character who hacked Chester. But when we found out it was only 13 [episodes], that entire storyline went away, so it doesn’t really get addressed hardcore in the way that I had hoped.”Any idea how many episodes the first season of Fire Country has? –Jude
You can count on a full, fiery 22 episodes of CBS’ freshman hit. -
Image Credit: Paramount+ Anything you can give me about the Criminal Minds: Evolution finale? Also, any scoop on what next season’s case may be? –Dave
Let’s see…. Thursday’s finale opens with a flashback I had not expected, and as such gave me chills; Rossi’s relentless craftiness just might be his downfall; as suggested by a spoilery photo the show for some reason tweeted out, Joe Mantegna will further validate his very recent POTW Honorable Mention; two good guys will take a bullet; and at least one body bag will be needed once the smoke has cleared. I will of course feel out showrunner Erica Messer about next season’s case when I chat her up this week, but for now I can say that the finale does set in motion a curious mystery….Is there hope for Garcia and Tyler? I hope so. #CriminalMindsEvolution –Jada
Penelope has a decision to make in the finale, that’s for sure!Have you heard anything about this Welcome to Flatch/This Country crossover…? I expected it to happen in Season 2, but it didn’t. –Michael
From what I hear, simple logistics got in the way of those very special guest stars dropping by during Season 2. But the hope is that if there’s a Season 3, the meet-up will happen then. -
Image Credit: ABC Will we see Nolan and Bailey getting married this season of The Rookie? –Lilly
Married? You should instead just hope they can survive their very first big fight as a couple, which will be happening in the Feb. 21 episode.Do you have new information about the Beavis and Butt-Head classic series (S01-S07) which should have released completely last year on Paramount+? It was supposed to be released in batches, but since November 2022, no more episodes have been released. –William
That rolling release of re-cleared episodes is still happening, though I am hearing that not all episodes are currently available due to pesky music clearance issues.Do YOU want scoop/have questions about a favorite show?
