CASTLE moves into the new timeslot of 8.30pm Sundays from March 18. BONES takes a break because we’ve caught up to the US – the series has a reduced episode order this season due to star Emily Deschanel’s real-life pregnancy and maternity leave and is currently on hiatus until April. The first episode back is expected to feature the birth of “Baby Bones” while Brennan and Booth are investigating a prison riot!

Megan Mullally guest stars as Penny’s mum in part 2 of the HAPPY ENDINGS double on Monday, March 19. Mullally told the Hollywood Reporter that she landed the role after introducing herself to star, Casey Wilson at a party.  “I’ve been watching the show all season, so I just introduced myself [to Casey] and I said that I thought the show was great and I thought that she was great on it. Casey mentioned that to someone and then I ended up being on the show.” Mullally plays Dana, mother to Wilson’s Penny. “When Penny was a kid they used to have a singing duo called ‘Two Hearts Beat As One’,” Mullally says. “We have a big number at the end. We choreographed it ourselves, by the way. We would like to be credited for that.”

The March 22 episode of PRIVATE PRACTICE finds Amelia Shepherd over the edge and on a dark downward spiral into a traumatic addiction relapse. Star Caterina Scorsone is compelling these next few weeks as we get a very real and painful look at how the disease of addiction not only destroys the addict, but the lives of their loved ones and co-workers. Look out for the riveting intervention episode soon.
