Needed a place for Kiefer's photo from his arrest. I have a lot of good things and that doesn't even include the fact that Alanis Morisette is going to be on Weeds (NAKED!) or JD and Eliot back for only 6 episodes next season on Scrubs (NO!). More from Ausiello (and Watch With Kristin below):
Question: Anything new about The Office finale? --Cindy
Ausiello: The twist ending I've been telling you about? Not a single one of you has come close to guessing what it is. Question: Just watched the Lost finale and WTFJULIET?! --Margaret
Ausiello: No comment.

Question: News on Tony and the 24 finale? --Aaron
Ausiello: One of the slots in my Season Finale Scorecard is reserved just for him. Can you guess which one? Speaking of Tony, the evil douche was the topic of conversation at Tuesday's finale screening in Hollywood. Kiefer Sutherland admitted that Carlos Bernard wasn't expecting fans to hold him personally accountable for his character's actions. "Two episodes in he started getting hate mail," he said. "Then he started getting the hate phone calls. It made him a little nervous." For his part, Bernard views Tony as a victim. "I don’t perceive Tony as evil. He's gone through really traumatic events. He's a damaged individual. He's a guy who doesn't trust anybody anymore, feels abandoned and feels he has to take matters into his own hands." Exec producer Jon Cassar urges viewers to reserve judgment until after Monday's finale. "I know right now they are kind of upset that he's bad, but it all kind of becomes clear in episode 24. We really wanted [the season] to end with Tony and Jack, and that's how it's going to end." Fellow e.p. Howard Gordon was slightly less apologetic. "If people are disappointed or don't like [how Tony's arc is resolved], too bad." (Make that a lot less apologetic.)

Question: Do you know if Janeane Garofalo will be back on 24 next season? I'm kind of digging Janis. --Jason
Ausiello: Sorry to disappoint, but Janis will not be making the trek to New York. "I think the secret of this show is knowing when characters have had their story," explains exec producer Howard Gordon. "And to transpose everybody [from D.C. to New York] starts feeling very coincidental. Even getting Chloe there ... you have to explain how she got from Washington to New York and what happened. You can't do that for everybody."

Question: Any scoop on the 24 finale? --Kristen
Ausiello: "Renee is all over the place in these last two episodes," reveals Annie Wersching. "I got to do my favorite stunt [of the season] -- and they let me do it myself. It involves hanging off of a car and shooting and saving someone. It was really cool."

Question: Any news about the new season of Entourage? --Bob
Ausiello: Lloyd's out ... as Ari's punching bag. Producers are auditioning twentysomething actors to play Ari's new assistant on a recurring basis next season. My guess? Lloyd finally gets promoted to agent. Or, even better, he takes a job at another agency and becomes Ari's rival!

And from Kristin:
24 Hits New York Early: Kiefer Sutherland's head-butting may not land him in jail in New York, but he may be in violation of his probation in L.A. and end up back in jail. On whether this will sideline 24's eighth season from going into production at the end of the month, Fox says "No comment."
The Office: Mindy Kaling is developing a new show for NBC. (Yay!) Rainn Wilson posted on Twitter: "Dear Mindy, I want to play 'Jim'-like guy please." But Mindy tweeted back that Rainn's more of a Stanley. Click on that link to figure that one out!
Liz in Seattle: I love 24! Can you give me some 24 scoop please? I can't bear to see Jack so sick and Tony go back to the dark side!
Things are about to get a whole lot worse actually. Monday's episode brings out the dark side of Jack when he pretty much goes all, well, Jack Bauer on Tony, sans head-butting. Where the real drama happens though is at the airport, where Kim Bauer (Elisha Cuthbert) is set to fly back to L.A. That's all good and everything, but, Kim, you're surrounded by henchmen who are about to take you hostage. Just FYI.
