There’s more drama today over Balthazar Getty’s alleged exit from “Brothers and Sisters”. Now it is being reported he will be back next season. Show runner Alison Schapker told the L.A. Times, “Tommy is in no way permanently gone,” she said. “This is just the logical end to this year’s story. What we’d like to do is bring him back next year in a different way.” I’m skeptical about Getty returning. It’s a good way to spin why he is leaving but I have a feeling when the show returns next year, he still won’t be around.

I’ve already covered the new on-again romance over at “Gossip Girl” but that’s not going to be the only love fest heating up the Upper East Side this spring. Apparently, Armie Hammer is joining the cast of “Gossip Girl” as Serena’s new love interest. His character, Gabriel Serrano, is a European socialite who is very different from any of Serena’s other boy toys. Hammer has signed on to appear in three episodes toward the end of the season.

“Parks and Recreation” not only has a new name but also has a new cast member. “Everwood’s” Chris Pratt has just been added to the cast of Amy Phoeler’s upcoming NBC comedy as the unemployed musician boyfriend of Rashida Jones’ character. The show debuts on April 9th, I can’t wait!
