Question: You spoiled recently that there will be a permanent veteran death in the Smallville season finale. Is this character featured in the Season 8 opening credits? --Krissy
Ausiello: Yes.
So, they're still going with the fact that the deaths will stick.
Question: How many original episodes of NCIS are left this season? -- Kate
Ausiello: Four. You've got the spin-off launching episodes airing on April 28 and May 5, followed by two regular episodes on May 12 and 19. And according to exec producer Shane Brennan, "You have to watch all four of them because they're all linked together. Even though we're off in Los Angeles [in the first two episodes] doing stuff with the new team, they're all tied very closely together by Tony, Ziva, and Gibbs."
Question: Rumors are flying that Michael Weatherly won't be returning next season on NCIS. Please tell me that it is not true! -- Kristen
Ausiello: Michael Weatherly isn't the one you should be worried about.
I'm very worried about this spinoff and at first, I heard Tony may get his own team. But he's not the one we should be worried about? Oh, dear, I don't know what to think now! I don't want any of the team to go away.
Feel free to share your thoughts!
