INCOMING TRANSMISSION ...

Wildfeed!
You can check the usual suspects for the wildfeed updates: AICN is up, and although as of this writing Alias Media didn't have clips, they may soon. Earlier I suggested checking out Leoff Online for Wildfeed spoilerness, but we're saddened to note that there will no longer be the Wildfeediness goin' on. But we appreciated the fun while it lasted!
Kicking off November sweeps
Aside from the first sweeps ep of Alias tonight, and The Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror, in which Jennifer has a slight appearance, and all the appearances we've mentioned lately, Jennifer will *also* be on the America's Funniest Home Videos (wait, is it still Home Videos, or just Videos?) special tonight, along with other ABC stars to "offer congratulations and tell about their favorite videos." Thanks to TwinnerA for the heads-up. I believe that will be at 7/6c, and it's an hour long, so that'll take you right up to The Simpsons. I hope y'all don't have anything else to do tonight! ;)
And, because we still aren't watching enough TV...
You can catch the 2 episodes of Ally McBeal on which Michael had a guest role on Nov. 3 and 4 on FX (Monday and Tuesday). FX does not seem to have any consistent schedule, because according to TwinnerA, the eps will air at 11 am Mountain time, but my TV Guide has 'em at 9 am Central. And I seem completely unable to figure out what time they'll air on the coasts. So, you know the drill: check your local listings. And as long as you're looking, Fiorile is on IFC (Independent Film Channel) on
Nov. 6 at seemingly various and multiple times, so double-check those.
Have a relaxing Sunday!

Happy November!
Can you believe it's already here?? And what better way to kick off the month than many Michael TV appearances. Michael will be on Jimmy Kimmel on the 5th and be on Good Morning, America, *and* Regis and Kelly on the 7th. Thanks to Laura for that info! Can we say "sweeps"? All this has been added to the calendar.
Speaking of appearances
I suppose this would technically constitute a spoiler, but seeing as how it makes no mention of the plot, I'm going to go ahead and share here. If you have *no* interest in knowing anything, just skip on ahead. A source let us know not to expect too much of an actual Jennifer appearance on tomorrow's Simpsons episode: she only has two short lines. But if you're anything like me, you'll be watching The Simpsons anyway. :)
And more appearances
TwinnerA sent us this link to some pics of Ron Rifkin at a Broadway opening. I hope he had a good pre-birthday celebration at the play, and that he partied in style last night. :)
And I of course hope everyone made it through last night relatively unscathed. I hate to say it, but I think we're officially in the holiday season now; Thanksgiving (and of course, Michael's birthday! Don't forget to check out the MV Birthday Project!) is just a few weeks away. Here's to a fantastic month for all!

Happy Halloween!
And happy birthday to Ron Rifkin, who plays the coolest bad guy around! We're going to kick off the Halloween festivities with a scarily-long update, so sit back, grab some fun size candy bars, and let's get started. :)
D'oh!
Jennifer's turn as a Simpsons character will be on this Sunday, for their (late) Halloween episode. I have to admit to having lost count; would this be Treehouse of Horror XIV? (Wow, see now that is my Latin class coming in handy in everyday life...) That's on FOX at 8/7c, so don't forget! We've added it to the calendar, as well.
Speaking of scary...
Capitol Hill went into lockdown yesterday because security guards belatedly noticed the image of a gun on the X-Ray machine. Turns out, the gun was a toy that belonged to a congressional aide; she had it as part of her Halloween costume as Sydney Bristow. You can read the story at the Washington Times. My suggestion to anyone dressing up as Sydney next year? Don't bring your entire costume to work!
Hide from this next item
If you're bothered by spoilers! And there are quite a few today. Let's do 'em all out of order, because that's just fun. ;) (No, I haven't had too much sugar, why??) First off, there's a blurb for ep 7, and a small spoiler for episode 9, with thanks to Jul for that one.
Next up, are two blurbs on the general season 3 page. The first is thanks to redhat at TWoP, and the second? Well... the second is an attempt by JJ to explain Wifey's bizarre accent. Frankly, I'm still skeptical. I know plenty of Americans in situations similar to what JJ described, and no, they do not have accents. I'm not saying it's impossible, I'm just sayin'...
Heads-up to French Hos
Michelle let us know that tomorrow, Saturday, November 1, "It Had To Be You" will be aired on TF1 in the afternoon. I would suggest checking your listings for the exact time. Thanks, Michelle!
On another note ... The fires in Southern California
For any fans in Southern California who would like to help contribute to disaster relief for those affected by the recent fires, Coreen sent us this information: The LA Kings will be donating 100% of the proceeds of every remaining ticket sold (approx. 3,000) for *tomorrow's* game against the Phoenix Coyotes at the Staples Center to the American Red Cross Disaster Relief Fund.
Also, the club will accept monetary donations, and those who choose to donate will qualify to win an authentic team-signed Kings jersey. You can find out more info about purchasing tickets or making cash donations by calling 1-888-KINGS-LA (which translates to 1-888-546-4752). This is definitely a worthy cause! ... (For those that want an Alias tie-in, well after all, the LA Kings are Michael's favorite hockey team.) Our thoughts and best wishes are of course with everyone affected by the fires!
That wraps up today's update; I hope everyone has a fabulously fun Halloween, but most importantly, **be safe**!! :)

Patrick Caps, the Next Generation
Hot on the heels of yesterday's caps (which included Sleeping Beauty, uh, Sleeping Vaughn), we have the second batch of Patrick's "Repercussions" caps. Enjoy! Though not so much Vaughn in this batch, I'm afraid, since they annoyingly persist in not having him in every scene.
Do you miss Lena?
OK, that was a silly question. Who doesn't miss Lena??? A group of fans have decided to try to do something about it and have started a campaign to Bring Back Lena! They're aiming for a full-page ad in The Hollywood Reporter. Go check out their Web site! They also have suggestions for writing to The Monkeys That Be. (And, you know, if you wanted to sneak in a little triangle-hate, too, in the ABC letters....)
A very special guest
We've added a blurb with comments from a particular guest star from Sunday's upcoming ep. It would be considered spoilerly if you didn't watch the previews after "Repercussions," but if you did, you already know this person is going to be on, so you're good to read it, then!
Does everyone have their costumes in order for tomorrow night? Sufficient snack-sized candies ready? Mmmm, baby Snickers....
