• Criminal Minds: CBS just sent us this exclusive photo of Gavin Rossdale's guest gig on Criminal Minds. Rossdale plays an eyeliner-loving rock star suspected of murder. Do you think he'll pull off the part? Rossdale's wife, Gwen Stefani, played a rock star (although not one accused of murder, that we know of) last spring in Gossip Girl's Lily flashback ep.

• Melrose Place: People has the first photos of Heather Locklear on the set of the new Melrose Place.

• Battlestar Galactica: Maxim has half-nekkid pictures of Cylon models Six and Eight, aka gorgeous actress ladies Tricia Helfer and Grace Park. Man, who'd have ever thought we would miss the crazy ol' Cylons?

Read on for some cool casting announcements, plus the first photo of Firefly vixen Gina Torres on Gossip Girl...

We've read your emails and know you guys love Warehouse 13, so in honor of tonight's second-to-last ep, we're bringing you an exclusive sneak peek!

Secret Service Agent Myka Bering (Joanne Kelly) is going Hogan home in this week's episode of Warehouse 13, because her parents (Michael Hogan—Battlestar Galactica's Colonel Tigh—and his real-life, wife, Susan) are in trouble. Warehouse-type trouble: Dad is being tormented by the ink leaping from the pages of a mysterious manuscript delivered to his bookstore.

Yay for family reunions? Maybe not, when you watch the clip above. Also, Myka's an only child, so her pop's choosing to name his business Bering & Sons is pretty telling. That, and the revealing exchange between Myka and her partner, Pete, a while back:

Myka: You ever see that movie The Great Santini, with the tough dad and the scared kids?
Pete: It's like that, huh?
Myka: Yeah, except it wasn't over in two hours.

Fortunately, sometimes the artifacts do more good than harm.

• House: Have you seen the new House promo where House (Hugh Laurie) is smooching guest star Franka Potente? What do you guys think about that?

• Dollhouse: Jamie Bamber isn't the only Battlestar Galactica vet swinging by the Dollhouse set this season—Michael Hogan (Col. Saul Tigh) is also set to guest star this year. Hogan pops up in the second episode.

• TCA Awards: Speaking of Battlestar Galactica, the critically acclaimed drama was finally recognized at an awards show, taking the honor of Program of the Year this weekend at the Television Critics Association Awards. Other TCA Awards winners include True Blood, Mad Men, The Big Bang Theory and Breaking Bad.

• Sesame Street: After a successful parody entitled "Desperate Houseplants," the producers have decided to spoof Mad Men. Personally, we're looking forward to a puppet-size Jon Hamm.

Ronald D. Moore's long-awaited pilot TV movie, Virtuality, airs tonight on Fox, and it's your ticket to escape the M.J. sads and thrill out in space for a couple hours.

Don't skip a ride on the starship Phaeton just because the show didn't get picked up to series. As executive producer Michael Taylor points out, other networks are still "very interested"—and resolutions can be overrated. Virtuality, says Taylor, "is interesting in a way because of the questions it raises. It's really more about asking questions than providing answers."

In asking these questions—from defining infidelity and the essence of life to the inevitability of gay marriage—this show appeals to all televisionaries...

Well-played!

Battlestar Galactica, a visually grim and philosophically dark series for the duration of its run, had no obligation to end with twittering birds, romantic curlicues and happy, healing Helo. It was a gift, then, that it ended on such a triumphal, thoughtful note, and for that gift plus the entirety of four epic years with this great story, we offer a sincere and hearty thank you to the creators, cast crew.

But enough niceties. Let's get cracking into what went down in the series finale of Battlestar Galactica, and more importantly, what series creators David Eick and Ronald D. Moore have to say about it...

In just three short days, the rag-tag fleet's long journey comes to an end. Sob.

As the landmark series Battlestar Galactica heads toward a thrilling two-hour series finale this Friday, plans are already under way to continue the franchise. We caught up with BSG star Edward James Olmos and Sci Fi SyFy boss Mark Stern for a look forward to The Plan, the upcoming Cylon-centric BSG film...

• Baltar thinks Kara Thrace is an angel? Has he met her? Because she's something all right, but angel is not the generally accepted term.
• Hold the phone, was that a Starbuck-Apollo scene? We haven't had one of those in a while, much less with one with such schmoop. Never could figure out whether Anders or Lee was Starbuck's one true partner...
• This "projection" business that Boomer showed Hera—is that how Caprica and Baltar were bonded for all those years, or was that properly explained sometime back in the day?
• Caprica and Roslin are still having the wacko Hera dreams. The Model Eight in the dream should be Hera's ma Athena, but could it be Boomer? Because Hera's Aunty Boomer sure seemed to be softening up toward her hostage by the end there. Any chance Boomer rekidnaps Hera out of Cavil's clutches next week and drops off the baby with Helo and Athena on the way to her own summary execution?
• Adama+Roslin=Adorable

How are you liking the final days of Galactica? Do you wish Caprica could have had her baby even if the father was (inexplicably) curmudgeonly ol' Tighclops? Post in the comments!

I just visited Rainn Wilson's man cave—that's what she said, but totally not what it means—he literally has a brand-new office that he calls his man cave, and I ventured into no-woman's land just for you Office fans. Rainn talks about the possible budding friendship between Andy (Ed Helms) and Dwight, and gives some deets on Jack Black and the Super Bowl episode.

Also on deck for the Watch with Kristin show, Bill Paxton and the Big Love crew share how having too many family members will finally catch up with Bill.

Plus, Tahmoh Penikett is doing the dirty on Battlestar Galactica, and a Bones character is getting a child…

Oh hells yes.

Battlestar Galactica season 4.5 has been crazytown so far, what with the suicide of a beloved character, the disappointing reveal of the fifth/final Cylon and the shocking/random truth about baby Nicky's parentage, but all the weird was wiped away tonight.

The final scenes of the episode brought the sexy back...If you haven't seen it yet, go watch it, you frakkin' slacker. If you're caught up and ready to chug back some celebratory liquor in an octogonal glass, get in here!

Chuck Bartowski just scored himself one mighty fine Cylon.

Multiple sources confirm Battlestar babe Tricia Helfer will join NBC's Chuck later this season as a new honey for Chuck himself, Zachary Levi.

Now, some of you fans may be asking, "Wait a minute! This doesn't mean Yvonne Strahovski (Sarah) is leaving Chuck, does it?!"

And also, will Tricia stick around?

I have the exclusive dish on that and more, direct from Chuck boss Josh Schwartz (who admits he's a huge Battlestar fan)...
