Giovanni Rufino / The CW• Gossip Girl: Here's the official word on the Chair crisis from Gossip Girl executive producer Stephanie Savage, by way of our pal Mitovich over at Fancast: "Last year, Blair made a pledge to Chuck: 'The worst thing you've ever done, the darkest thought you've ever had. I'll stand by you through anything.' Well, this spring, this oath is tested...Will Blair stand by her man? Or has Chuck finally played one game too many? Tune in and find out." Gossip Girl returns to the CW on Monday, March 8 at 9 p.m.
Plus, find out why Meredith won't be getting knocked up anytime soon on Grey's Anatomy...
• Grey's Anatomy: If you've been hoping for a MerDer baby, you're going to have wait patiently for a while longer. Show runner Shonda Rhimes says, "We've had enough of a behind-the-scenes baby boom [on Grey's Anatomy]...Meredith will not be getting pregnant."
• Castle: Finally recognizing the greatness that is Nathan Fillion and Stana Katic—or just attempting to fill the void left by soon-to-be-deceased Ugly Betty—ABC has increased Castle's episode order to 24. Season two of the critical fave has continued to climb the ratings ladder, and the show is awaiting a season three pickup.
• Great Idea We Must Promote: We join our friend TheTVAddict in wanting to see this in the wake of the Ugly Betty cancellation: "A Michael Urie guest spot on Modern Family as Mitchell's ex."
• Smallville: Want to see the Smallville: Absolute Justice trailer? It's online now at our frenemy's homepage, and it apparently involves some sort of "hawk man." Hee.
