Slumber party at Kelly Taylor's house!

That's what I'm hearing is in the cards for long-lost friends Brenda Walsh (Shannen Doherty) and Kelly Taylor (Jennie Garth) on the CW's new 90210.

According to reliable inside sources, producers are planning plenty of ultracozy screen time for the two real-life frenemies—they'll even be shacking up together temporarily on the new series, which premieres Sept. 2.

"Jennie and Shannen will have many, many scenes together," said one insider about the four episodes for which Shannen is now contracted. (Jennie will appear in more episodes on a recurring basis.)

So how exactly will the slumber party go down? Well, here's what I'm hearing...

Spoiler Chat: House, Heroes, Brothers and More!

Masi Oka, Hugh Laurie, Dave Annable NBC, FOX, ABC

Cath: Hmmm...No House scoops lately? Come on, Kristin! We are starving for info!
Here is a warm nugget to sink your teeth into: Much to the chagrin of House/Wilson fans everywhere, it appears as though the show's cornerstone coupling is breaking up when House returns Sept. 16. Said Hugh Laurie: "Wilson comes to a bigger, broader realization that House is possibly a destructive force in his life; House isn't good for him, and as a result of that realization, Wilson decides to up sticks and leave." Booo! (Still, I'm highly doubtful this breakup is permanent. And by highly doubtful I mean, I have it on good authority.)

Anthony in Augusta, Maine.: Is Heroes going to go back to its glory of the first season?
Didn't you see on the Olympics commercials that say Heroes is "100 percent back" according to E! Online? Well, normally I don't believe a word those idiots say, but in this case, you totally can and should! The premiere is awesome, and the new season looks great. We're even going to see some of the oldies we love back together again. Plus, did you hear the Greatest American Hero is coming on board?! (Check the spoiler section.)

Rallygirl in Omaha, Neb.: Kristin, you have to get on the Grey's set to see the McMansion! Thanks for the news they are building it. Any more scoop?

Rainn's Kidnapping Is No Joke; Pam Beesly Is MIA

Warning: "Rainn Wilson is a madman. He is crazy and you should take him serious."

These chilling words come to you from the adorable and reliable Angela Kinsey, who just confirmed to me while I was on the Office set that Rainn has indeed kidnapped Angela's real-life BFF, Jenna Fischer, and placed her in the trunk of his car. What's more: Jenna was not on set while the entire Dunder Mifflin Scranton branch filmed a business ethics scene all day yesterday. Every single series regular was in attendance—except Jenna. Gaaaah!

Now, you're scared for our beloved Beesly, right?

HIMYM Spoiler: Does This Mean Stella Is the One?

Sarah Chalke, Josh Radnor, How I Met Your Mother Monty Brinton/CBS

SPOILER ALERT: Josh Radnor's Ted and Sarah Chalke's Stella are, apparently, going to the chapel! But are they really gonna get married? And if they do, does that mean that Stella is, in fact, the Mother of his children?

That's the question we fans are left with this morning after sources on How I Met Your Mother confirmed to me that "Yes, we will have a wedding with these two early in the season."

Luckily, I just talked to HIMYM boss Craig Thomas, and he was feeling dishy...

Death Coming to Prison Break

Prison Break FOX

It's true. A Fox rep for Prison Break confirmed to me that one (or two!) of the show's main characters will die in the season premiere, which airs Sept. 1 at 8 p.m.—at least one actor is leaving the series for good.

So who is it? That is a secret producers desperately want to protect (and for good reason, 'cause it's a good surprise), but I can tell you that both of these potential dead bodies are in fact hot bodies and will be missed. Feel free to post your theories and try to figure it out in the comments below.

Meanwhile, executive producer Zack Estrin gave us this exclusive look at two new characters who will be filling the shoes of the departed:

"We have a new character, known simply as Wyatt (Cress Williams), who is the Company guy who is trying to track them this year. He is the guy with the gun who is hot on our guys' trail. Because when the season begins, there is a cover story that our guys are placed into a Supermax prison, and slowly but surely clues are coming out that they aren't in there—that they're up to something else maybe. This guy's job is to find out what they're really up to.

"Another new character is a hacker named Roland. Our team has learned to have some level of trust among each other, or at least they know everyone else's agenda, but this is a new guy they're forced to work with, and they're not sure how they feel about him, but they need his expertise in the technological stuff that our guys don't necessarily have."

I met James Hiroyuki Liao, who plays Roland, while on set last week and can tell you he's great in the role—and really gets under Michael and Lincoln's skin. Who doesn't love an Asian guy with a thick Brooklyn accent? Check back Monday for video of my interviews with all your P.B. faves!

Now...got guesses on who's leaving the show for good? Comment below! (And if you're in the American version of WWK, click Fall Premiere Reminders at right to add the Prison Break premiere into your personal calendar!)

House Love Debate: Cameron, Cuddy or Wilson?

Hugh Laurie, Lisa Edelstein, Robert Sean Leonard, Jennifer Morrison, House Fox

If Dr. House (Hugh Laurie) has to be with someone—because you know the curmudgeon would say he just wants to stay home with his music and monster trucks—who should it be? Cameron (Jennifer Morrison), Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein) or, hey, what about Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard)?

The debate seems to pop up where House, M.D. fans gather, and we've brought it to this here forum for an official showdown, fueled by arguments submitted by you, the fans (which we read through, selected, and in some cases, trimmed a bit for time). Click in to see the battle, and then you be the judge...

Criminal Minds: You Ask, We Answer

Meta Golding, A.J. Cook ABC, CBS

So what do you know? More news!

After the previous Criminal Minds post, you guys wanted a little clarity on the question of "Is someone dying or just getting lightly flambéed?" While digging around for the answer, I stumbled onto a bit more Criminal Minds scoop for you, including a cast addition!

First off, a source close to the show told me, "We know the fans love all our characters equally, and because of that, they have some job security." So, continue to expect a serious injury, rather than an outright death, as a result of the SUV explosion.

Now, that said, A.J. Cook's due date draws near, and I'm hearing that her character will be "having the baby in nearly real time," meaning that A.J. and J.J. will be giving birth all but simultaneously on TV and in real life.

And on that note, I can tell you that there will be a new liaison on the team while A.J. Cook is off on her maternity leave. Meta Golding is signing on for the gig, and she'll appear on the series beginning at the end of October. I'm told it's "really cute how she's introduced." But if you love your Jennifer Jareau, you can breath easy, because Meta is just filling in, and J.J. will be returning to the team when she's done baby-makin'!

So, do you think J.J. should be considered safe, or do you think the explosion will bring on some sort of baby-related trauma, allowing her to gracefully disappear for a few episodes? Or both? Post in the comments.

Criminal Minds: Whose SUV Exploded?

Criminal Minds Karen Neal/ABC Studios

Who went kablooey? That's the question that's been raging all summer long for you Criminal Minds fans (my email inbox proves it), after the SUV of a series regular was blown up in the season finale.

While I don't want to know the straight-up answer (what fun would that be?) I do have a couple of hints and a theory about whose SUV went boom and some dish from Matthew Gray Gubler (you know him, you know love him...Dr. Spencer Reid!) about what's in store when the series returns Sept. 24 on CBS.
