We’re under fifty! Just 7 weeks until the Nancy Drew premiere. There’s been a few crumbs on the show front, and the crew have been busy. Shall we?
Riley Smith announced that he will be joining the cast of Station 19! I’ve heard that he will be playing the new fire captain and president of the union. He’s been hinting for a few weeks that he’s working in LA - so glad he landed a juicy part on a major network show! It’s also Riley’s birthday, which he’s celebrating with his partner and friends including Maddison - Happy Birthday, Riley!
On the show front we’ve learned a few things since my last blog. Kennedy confirmed that she trolls us from within the show - she sat on the arm of the chair close to Ace in Season 2’s “Quest for the Spider Sapphire”just to get a rise out of us (thank you Katie for the prompt). In Season 4 news, Alison Thornton, a.k.a. Birdie, was added to episode 12 on IMDB in addition to Episode 3. Nice to see she’ll be recurring - can’t wait to see how Birdie plays into the season’s mystery!
An actor playing “Nurse” was also added to Episode 2. If you remember, this is the episode we saw a glimpse of in the M3gan trailer, and that Kennedy indicated had similar comic vibes to Burning Bride. Maybe Nancy will need medical treatment after whatever supernatural malady causes her to throw up something black (ugh).
In other cast news, Leah’s back in Vancouver after filming the Matlock reboot pilot, Maddison will be appearing at the Versailles convention in Paris, and Alex will be featured in the final 3 episodes (of 8) of Patricia Arquette’s new Apple TV series “High Desert.” We don’t know yet what his part is beyond “Ethan” (courtesy of IMDB) in the darkly comic detective series set in the California desert, but we got another photo from the wedding he attended with his gf, this one with the wedding party and friends including Kirstin Dunst (Bring it On 4eva).
That’s all for now - hopefully we’ll get the S4 trailer within a few weeks.

I can already see that this season of Maisel is not shaping up to be popular, but as someone with limited emotional investment in how it turns out (I love Lenny! Don’t get me wrong! It would be great if they changed history but I’m in no way holding my breath! …also I don’t mind Joel and I actually quite like him sometimes, which I know is a very unpopular opinion but so be it) I very much enjoyed being back in the Sherman-Palladino patter.
And I especially enjoyed hearing the Sherman-Palladino patter back in the mouth of a certain handsome man.
