Brian Austin Green with Tori Spelling, back in the dayMonday, November 5
Watch: Rick Springfield performs "Jessie's Girl" on Rachael Ray. …It's still a great song, come on. Speaking of '80s sex symbols, David Hasselhoff is on "The Talk." "Access Hollywood Live" helps you prep for your election party, and Oliver Stone comes on "Tavis Smiley" to talk about his new book, which is apparently rather unkind to Obama.

Skip: "Live with Kelly & Michael" has their Halloween show, which Hurricane Sandy delayed, but it's going to seem forced now.

Watch: Cross-talk alert! Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan visit Katie Couric for their first sit-down interview together. Jeff Probst is interviewing J.Lo's former, now estranged, personal makeup artist, Scott Barnes, which could get train-wrecky in a fun way.

Skip: Election coverage blacks out most of the night-time chat shows, but "The Late Late Show" is a rerun featuring Carrot Top — a must-not-see for many people.

Saul wants to trust Carrie, but...The message in "A Gettysburg Address" isn't coded, and it's even shorter than the famous Lincoln speech it references: Don't trust Brody.

Mike brings that message to Jess after doing a little digging with Lauder into Walker's death. The detective on the case can't give them much information, saying the CIA yoinked the file almost immediately; that sends Lauder off on a veiled rant about Brody and Vice President, and Mike to his contact at the CIA to see if he can learn more. He can't: his contact kicks Mike over to Saul, who brings him into a closed-doors meeting with Estes, who warns Mike to stand down. When Mike objects that he's being stonewalled, Saul corrects him, "No, Major. You're being told by fellow intelligence officers — respectfully at this point — not to pursue" the matter any further. Brrr.

The lone-gunman theory

But Mike does pursue it, rifling through the Brody garage and finding an ammo box with a single bullet missing. When Jessica comes home, he shares his

We'll admit we have a bit of a soft spot for the character Mike Faber -- who is played by Diego Klattenhoff -- on "Homeland." When his best friend and fellow Marine, Nicholas Brody, was feared dead, "Uncle Mike" stepped up to take care of his pal's family. Over the eight years that Brody was gone, Mike fell in love with his friend's wife, Jess -- oops! -- only to have Brody return and reclaim his family with Mike's only option being to walk away. Of course viewers then quickly learned that while Brody was a prisoner of war he was turned by al-Qaeda figure Abu Nazir, and as he started to do things like, ya know, don a suicide vest in attempt to blow up the vice president, nice guy Mike has emerged as the clear better fella in the love triangle. Oh, he doesn't know Brody is bad … yet. In this Sunday's episode of the Showtime series, we see Mike's attitude toward Brody starting to change. He's cut his friend a lot of slack since he returned home from Afghanistan with an arsenal of

He was one of the most beloved stars playing one of the most beloved characters on "Lost," and it's his ties to that show that bring Jorge Garcia back to ABC this weekend. On Sunday night's "Tallahassee" episode of "Once Upon a Time," Garcia guest-stars as the Giant, of "Jack and the Beanstalk" fame.

The role came about as "Lost" producers and writers Edward Katsis and Adam Horowitz, now producers on "Once Upon a Time," had been looking for a way to bring their old pal to their new gig.

"Eddy and Adam, they're friends, and they were kind of keepers of the Hurley story on 'Lost," Garcia tells Yahoo! TV. "They wrote most of the Hurley episodes, so when I would see them at different things, they would tell me that they really enjoyed writing for me and they would love to find opportunities to write for me again, and find a way to maybe bring me in on this show.

"And it was just finding the right thing that worked. Like, the first season, I was unavailable, doing a different show (Fox's

ABC is looking to bring back the good old days of "TGIF" with a brand-new Friday night comedy block… and who better to lead that charge than Reba McEntire? The country-music superstar (who's known professionally as just "Reba") starred in the hit WB/CW sitcom "Reba" for five seasons, and is back this week with a new sitcom: "Malibu Country," starring Reba as a faithful wife and mom who packs up her kids and moves them from Nashville to L.A. after her country-star husband is caught cheating.

We chatted with Reba this week about her new comedy, why she loves performing in front of a live audience, how she got comedy legend Lily Tomlin to play her mother on the show, and what she thinks about ABC's new country-music soap "Nashville." (Hint: She's a fan.)

It's been five years now since "Reba" ended. What made you decide to get back into TV now?
I love television. I love the schedule. I love everything about it. Some days are longer than others, but it's fun. I mean, to get in there and get

When the mask has fallen"For the sake of appearances" — a cynical phrase, and it's driving everyone on "Nashville" this week, starting with Juliette, whose reunion with her shoplifting past takes exactly no time to hit the internet. Her team immediately upshifts into damage-control mode, and initially, she's having none of it, refusing to sit for an interview with "Good Morning America" and smirking "four million views, not bad" as she looks at YouTube. She's more embarrassed by/concerned with her mom, Jolene, who's getting on Juliette's nerves by crabbing that they're out of milk and wailing that Juliette already has plenty of nail polish.

Juliette isn't giving her an inch (not even when Jolene makes "pink macaroni," an adorably disgusting childhood favorite of Juliette's involving ketchup and cream cheese). Juliette repeatedly asks her manager to ship Jolene out of town, the better to maintain Juliette's image of herself, for herself, as a flippant hard-ass who doesn't need anybody. But the "GMA" spot

Krysten Ritter has been hitting the streets of New York City filming scenes for Season 2 of her comedy series, "Don't Trust the B---- in Apt. 23," and if the hints she shared at an Ekocycle event last week are any indication, this season is sure to have plenty of surprises.

One biggie? Her character, Chloe, is getting a real job. So far, the uberbitch has gotten by financially through scamming her roommates, selling knockoff purses, and mooching off her famous BFF James Van Der Beek. This season, though, she makes a splash in the publishing world, taking over People magazine. However, her lofty career goals might be foiled, as, Ritter reveals, "it also turns out she is a registered sex offender, which is a big one."

Chloe's career-climbing isn't the only thing Ritter teases about the upcoming season. She also reveals that her counterpart is finally getting a love interest, which will be revealed in Tuesday's Halloween-themed episode. During the special, the always over-the-top Chloe

What were Rick and the gang up to at the prison in "Walk With Me," the third episode of the third season of "The Walking Dead"? Dunno, because they made nary an appearance in the installment. But lest you think AMC filled the hour with walkers stocking up on toilet paper and human body parts in preparation for the Frankenstorm, it's important to note that Mr. Grimes and company gave up their screen time so the "Dead" devoted could finally meet the Governor.

"Walking Dead" comic book fans have long awaited the introduction of the Governor (David Morrissey), a zombie apocalypse survivor who has been named one of the most villainous comic book baddies ever. What, you didn't get that from the drab dad duds he wears or the Pleasantville-like town he presides over?

But surely you suspected he was bad news when he killed all those military men, lied to his people about it, and then retired to his private chambers to gaze creepily upon his wall of zombie heads in fish tanks, right? But we're
