Parenthood: Kristina, Drew and Amber related scoop from Entertainment Weekly's Sandra Gonzalez

Here's some scoop on Parenthood from Entertainment Weekly's Sandra Gonzalez's The Spoiler Room column, which was posted on 10/1/12.



‘PARENTHOOD’: MORE ON KRISTINA’S STRUGGLE, AMBER’S NEW LOVE

In three episodes, Parenthood has already managed to top last year’s season — a feat I didn’t think was possible. And if you read my post-mortem with Jason Katims, you know this is only the beginning. But for those of you who clamored for even more scoop, here are three outtakes from our chat that might satisfy your craving for Braverman scoop.

+ FAQ1: Will Monica Potter have to cut her hair? Katims isn’t sure yet, saying they’ll cross that bridge a little later in the season. But, he says, “we are committed — as Monica is — to telling this story in a way that is realistic. I think it would be unfair to tell the story and have her and not lose her hair. How we’re going to do that, we haven’t decided yet. But it doesn’t mean she literally needs to cut her hair.”

+ FAQ2: What’s going on with Drew post-Amy?/Any chance there will be a gay twist? No. Drew’s not gay. In fact, Amy’s not even gone for good, as Katims assures “we haven’t seen the last of her.” And Drew’s troubles aren’t limited to his romantic life. When Sarah moves in with Mark later this season, the teen is less than pleased. “I think the episode last year we did between Miles and Jason Ritter — where they were trying to connect and it turned out badly — [was great]. I’m excited to explore that relationship and the stories of the three of them trying to live in a small apartment together,” says Katims.

+ FAQ3: Amber scoop! Look for Matt Lauria, who plays a soldier returning from Afghanistan, to be more than a fleeting romance for the young girl. “We’re really excited about that storyline because Ryan, the character that Matt plays, is such a different type of guy than any we’ve seen her with the entire series,” says Katims. “We’ve seen her always finding the wrong guys and this guy is really different, but he definitely has things he’s still working out from what he’s been through. We get to watch Amber be in a more adult and more mature relationship than we’ve seen her before.”
