On Quantico Season 2 Episode 6, Nimah revealed herself to be working with the terrorists in the future. She's the latest of familiar and trustworthy faces who we've learned are working with the group. This makes you wonder if maybe the terrorists aren't as bad as we initially thought.

Of course, there's still the decapitation of the First Lady and Lee's death to consider, so it's unlikely that this is some Robin Hood, prince among thieves, situation going on.

Below, TV Fanatics Jasmine Peterson and Allison Nichols, along with TV Fanatic reader Meaghan Frey, share their theories on what the terrorists are after, what landed Owen in federal prison, and much more. Join the discussion by leaving your thoughts in the comments.

Lee's dead, and now the terrorists are going after Diana. The connection? They visited the same place. Any theories as to what the terrorists are up to?

Jasmine: I have no idea!

On Quantico Season 2 Episode 3, Alex and Ryan had to decide which of the recruits to bug. Agreeing on one person ended up being a lot harder than they realized, but in the end, did they choose the right recruit?

Below TV Fanatics Jay Ruymann, Jasmine Peterson, Allison Nichols, and TV Fanatic reader Meaghan Frey weigh in on the newest recruit, Alex's bold decision, and how the recruits fared this week. Join the discussion by leaving your thoughts in the comments!

We have a new recruit! What’s your first impression of Lee?

Jay: I like her. She's fun, yet serious, but doesn't have the same drowning shady darkness around her as everyone else.

Jasmine: I agree with Jay. I like that she's confident and more mature. Sometimes watching people interact on Quantico feels like watching kids in high school, but Lee doesn't give off that vibe. She's like the farm's very own Martha Stewart.

Stephen Mulhern has signed on for another series of 'Britain's Got More Talent'. The 38-year-old presenter has agreed a deal with show boss Simon Cowell to return to the spin-off show and thinks the discussion was done early because the music mogul was so amused by the ''controversy'' the magician caused when he compared Amanda Holden to cosmetic surgery addict Jocelyn Wildenstein. He said: ''I'm all signed up for year 10. It's all sorted. I had an hour-and-a-half meeting with Simon last week and you never get that -- you get ten minutes if you're lucky! ''That joke I did with Amanda,...

Stephen Mulhern will return to Britain's Got More Talent for a tenth series next year.

Speaking to The Sun, Mulhern confirmed that the deal is done - and revealed that it was thanks to his cheeky joke about Amanda Holden that saw him getting drenched with water.

Holden threw her drink over Mulhern after one of the live semi-finals this year when he compared her to 74-year-old socialite Jocelyn Wildenstein.

"I'm all signed up for year ten," Mulhern said. "It's all sorted. I had an hour-and-a-half meeting with Simon last week and you never get that - you get ten minutes if you're lucky!

"That joke I did with Amanda, that went down like a sack of s**t. But Simon does love a bit of controversy. If you see a clip of it when it actually went out, he was like a kid in the sweet shop."

Mulhern -...

Even when The X Factor tries, it fails.

After last week's questionable eliminations, the judges apparently sensed something was wrong and wanted to fix it. So they decided to bring back a "wild card" contestant – someone the judges think deserves a second chance after getting kicked off.

For a second, there was a glimmer of hope that they'd pick fan favorite Danie Geimer, the Girls team member who so clearly didn't deserve to go home. But nope. Why do something that actually makes sense?...

For its seventh and final season, Burn Notice is bringing back one of Michael’s biggest enemies, a decision that is fitting since, you know, this is the last season the show will ever have so any scores to be settled should be settled now. It shouldn’t take much mental power to pin point which enemy Michael would most likely need to face off with to give this season that sense of finality. In my mind, it can only be Simon Escher, the psychotic rogue operative behind the crimes Michael was originally burned for. That means Burn Notice would require Garret Dillahunt to reprise his role.

Thankfully, that’s exactly what he’s doing. EW confirmed Dillahunt’s involvement with the final season, saying he is set to appear in an episode this summer. But wait, wasn’t Simon last seen in Season 4’s “Hard Time,” where he was...

Nicole Scherzinger has admitted that it feels odd to not have Simon Cowell sat beside her on the X Factor panel this year. The Pussycat Doll described the Syco boss as her "mentor" and "teacher" and said that it would be strange to not have him "driving me nuts" on the show, like he did on X Factor USA. "I was with Simon last week. I went to school with Simon, he taught me what to do and that's how I started on this show," she said. "It's weird for him not to (more)...

The hundreds of thousands of contestants have been whittled down to just 17, but before preparing ourselves for next week's two and a half hour live show, let's take a look back at what has, and more importantly, has Not been working on the first season of The X Factor.

We all know that Simon Cowell wanted to create this show for America, and destroy his former series American Idol in the ratings. Taking a look at last season's Idol numbers (much lower than a few years ago), the episodes prior to the live shows brought in anywhere from 21 to 26 million viewers. Up to this point The X Factor has garnered only nine to 12.5 million viewers... not world beaters by any means.

Why hasn't it done as well? The name recognition and history of Idol for starters, but more importantly the television landscape has become saturated with singing and talent competitions.

The morning after the debut episode of season 10 of "American Idol," fans are saying the long-running reality singing program has regained some of its lost luster. Considering that the early audition rounds are usually filled with the most "entertaining" singers, a lot of that praise had to do with the bang-up job of new judges Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez.

MTV News' comments sections and a special Twitter feed tied to our first-ever post-"Idol" were inundated with comments, rants and raves about Wednesday night's show, some positive, some negative and a few just plain angry.

"I thought Steven Tyler was hilarious," Garrett wrote. "I personally loved him, and I can't wait to see more." Ted agreed, adding, "My expectations were low...

The rapper issued a come and get me plea to Simon last week to be a judge on UK TV talent show ‘The X Factor’ and now the music mogul says he would be delighted to welcome Eminem onto the panel.

Simon said: “It would be great to have him on as a guest judge. “Em – I can call him that because we are on first name terms – the job is yours.” However, Simon insisted he won’t alter the line-up and drop any of the current judges - Girls Aloud star Cheryl Cole, Australian singer Dannii Minogue, the sister of Kylie Minogue, and music manager Louis Walsh – to make room for the ‘We Made You’ star. He added: “I’m not getting rid of anyone.” Eminem, 37, said last week he doesn’t think the current panellists have been successful enough to help the acts. He said: "No disrespect to...

TV regulator Ofcom is considering launching an investigation into the X Factor, after fans alleged that the show is ‘fixed’.

Despite criticising John and Edward Grimes for weeks, Simon last night opted to save them and effectively eject singer Lucie Jones.

Ofcom confirmed today it had received “more than 50″ complaints since the show aired, less than 24 hours ago. We can expect more details on the complaints this Wednesday and should know soon if Ofcom will investigate the matter formally.

A spokesman said: “There are a number of complaints which we are looking into.

“The number of complaints and the issues raised will be taken into consideration before we decide whether there needs to be a full investigation.”...
