James Roday
You don't have to remind Psych star James Roday that his USA series has a rabid fan base — especially after those fans were forced to wait an extra three months for the show to return.
"The Psych-O's are impatient, that's why we love them," Roday tells TVGuide.com. "They're foaming at the mouth. Sometimes it's for Psych episodes, sometimes it's for turkey."
But with great fans, comes great responsibility. So the show had to be very careful when, after five years of will-they-or-won't-they tension, Psych kicked off its sixth season with Shawn (Roday) and Juliet (Maggie Lawson) as a full-fledged couple. It's been a long time coming, but Roday is all too familiar with the TV graveyard filled with shows that died after their lead characters coupled up.
"You're always worried you're going to jump the shark with stuff like this because...

A stupefying loose-lipped extra who worked on Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull has incurred the wrath of no less than George Lucas and Steven Spielberg by blabbing plot points to a hometown paper. Despite having inked a nondisclosure agreement with the production, Tyler "You'll Never Hear About Me Again" Nelson — who played "a dancing Russian soldier" in a reportedly since-snipped scene — revealed to Oklahoma's Edmond Sun (Non-spoiler alert) the nature of Indy's latest quest, how Karen Allen's Marion plays into it, and the context of a pivotal scene between Harrison Ford and Cate Blanchett. A rep for Spielberg would not confirm for the New York Post the veracity of the apparent spoilers, but literally mwa-ha-haed, "Who knows whether that particular person will ever work in this town again?" And I'm assuming he didn't mean Edmond, Oklahoma.

The fourth (and final, whispers Harrison Ford's back) Indiana Jones film, scheduled to start shooting this month, will not revisit the father-son relationship introduced in Last Crusade, if only because Sean Connery simply isn't up to it. "I thought long and hard about it, and if anything could have pulled me out of retirement, it would have been an Indiana Jones film," the 76-year-old actor says in a statement. "I love working with Steven [Spielberg] and George [Lucas], and it goes without saying that it is an honor to have Harrison as my son. But in the end, retirement is just too damned much fun."And just like that, craft services' Metamucil budget gets reduced by half.
