Thor: The Dark World
Fringe
Showrunner Joel Wyman confirms there won't be any episode 19-style craziness this year, due in large part to the fact that there isn't an episode 19 this year:
"With only 13 episodes left, we don't have the time to go off the beaten path. There's just too little real estate to tell the rest of the story."
[TV Line]
The Walking Dead
Rohn Schmidt, the show's director of photography, explains why the prison is his favorite of the new locations, and how it's different from Woodbury:
I guess you could say the prison. As a cinematographer and just by nature, it means you've got very strong graphics there. Last year, we had Randall tied up in the shed, and it was just this very sharp, angular, graphic, black-and-white lighting, and I kind of saw what the prison was going to look like, so I was looking forward to it.
Do you have any visual tricks for distinguishing the two locations?
Yes. I tried to create a contrast between the town of Woodbury, which is kind of like a fantasy world with a dark undercurrent to it. It's kind of a little bit too pretty, so we've been using lower film stock to have less grain and look less gritty and raw. Then when we're doing the final color for it, we're adding a little bit more flesh to the skin-tones of the actors... And then that contrasts with the prison world, which is very monochromatic, and it's still just a little dark and scary there. And the actor's faces are a little less colorful.

Once Upon a Time
Executive producer Edward Kitsis teases what's ahead for the Storybrooke counterparts of Rumplestiltskin and Belle in season two now that the spell has been broken:
Rumple has always been a character who has had to choose between love and power, and he has always chosen power. So now that Belle, this wild card, has come into his life, how will it affect his meticulous plan? And which path will he now choose because of it?"

Here's a teaser for the second season premiere, courtesy of TV Line:
The Season 2 premiere - which already guest-stars Ken Leung aka "Miles" - features an additional Lost-like overtone as it answers the question of exactly how Reese will retrieve the numbers in Finch's absence. And speaking of Michael Emerson's character, who has been abducted by a deliciously ruthless Amy Acker: In the course of following Finch's scent, Reese recruits a new team member. The problem: He only takes orders in Dutch!

The Vampire Diaries
Here's The CW's official description for season four:
Season Four begins with the knowledge that everything is in transition. Elena faces her worst nightmare when she awakens after the accident and finds she must now endure the terrifying transition to become a vampire – or face certain death. Stefan and Damon are torn even further apart over how to help Elena adjust to a life she never wanted, and everyone has to cope with the chaos Alaric created when he outed the vampires and their supporters to the Mystic Falls Council and local church leaders. Despite everything that has happened to them, as Elena and her friends enter into the final stretch of high school before graduation sends them off on different paths, they feel the bond to their home town of Mystic Falls take on a deeper meaning when a new mysterious villain is introduced who seems intent on destroying it.
Jeremy's big arc for season four will reportedly kick off, albeit relatively subtly, in the second episode. That same episode will also reportedly feature an insane amount of "bloody puke", so be on the lookout for that. [TV Line]
