This fall, TV geeks everywhere will be happily welcoming back some very familiar faces.
"Alias" stars are resurfacing on some high profile projects this season:
- Michael Vartan (Vaughn) is one of ABC's "Big Shots"
- David Anders (the deliciously evil Sark) joins the cast of "Heroes" as Takezo Kensei, the legendary subject of stories told to Hiro as a child. For more on Kensei, visit the Yamagato Fellowship
- Kevin Weisman (tech guru Marshall) pops up on "October Road" Ask Ausiello
While most of us are still mourning the loss of "Veronica Mars," a few key cast members are moving on:
- Perhaps the best casting news of the season, the uber-talented Kristen Bell joins "Heroes" in the recurring role of Elle, a mysterious woman with ties to the supposed death of Peter, H.R.G.'s past and Claire's future
- Meanwhile, Jason Dohring (Logan Echolls) tries his brooding skills as a vampire on CBS's "Moonlight"
We continue to follow the "Firefly" crew wherever they go:
- Nathan Fillion (Captain Mal) moves to Wisteria Lane as boy-toy hubby of Dana Delany. As with all new families on "Desperate Housewives," they're keeping some super-dark secrets
- Adam Baldwin (malevolent Jayne) reluctantly teams up with/antagonizes "Chuck" on NBC
A few beloved supporting "Gilmore Girls" players return:
- Edward Hermann (grandpa Gilmore) scrubs in for a multi-episode arc on "Grey's Anatomy"
- Melissa McCarthy (lovable Sookie) plays friend to Christina Applegate's amnesiac on ABC's "Samantha Who?"
- Scott Patterson (Lorelai's one-and-only, Luke) is the head of the family on The CW comedy, "Aliens in America"
- Sean Gunn (eccentric Stars Hollower Kirk) brings his wacky self to "October Road" (I guess ABC really wants me to watch this show -- using Kirk and Marshall as bait; have they no shame?)
