"Numb3rs": The Latest TV Guide Spoilers

Thu, 13 Nov 2008 18:17:01 +0000

The latest new tidbits over at TV Guide include spoilers on Numb3rs.

It seems that FBI agents Liz Warner (Aya Sumika) and Nikki Betancourt (Sophina Brown) were paired together in a recent episode of Numb3rs called Scan Man, and they worked well together. The episode aired on October 31.

According to the show’s executive producer, they will be a team again, but at some point, Agent Warner has a new opportunity that will come her way.

Also it seems that Agent McGowan (Keith Carradine), the icy senior agent who proved to be an obstacle in Charlie Eppes (David Krumholtz) getting his FBI security clearance back will return to the show in another episode. We were left to wonder if he was going to resign after his sobering conversation with Don Eppes (Rob Morrow) in a recent episode.

Finally, it’s also been revealed that Charlie and Amita’s (Navi Rawat) relationship will be moving forward a bit, and perhaps that’s a good thing now that Charlie is no longer stressed about getting his clearance back.

Don’t forget to check out the next episode, which airs tomorrow night, Friday, November 14 at 10:00 PM on CBS.

Numb3rs: Sophina Brown’s New Digs

Tue, 28 Oct 2008 11:39:07 +0000

Actor Sophina Brown has made a splash as the fearless Agent Nikki Betancourt on Numb3rs. Check out this video interview she did in which she talks about her new job…Numb3rs:

In the season opener, called Decoy Effect, she debuts as the “new guy”, and spends time between tagging along with Agents Granger and Sinclair, trading barbs, and working the case with Don Eppes (Rob Morrow).

She’s eager, and ready for action. In Decoy Effect, she volunteers to be a decoy to catch some ATM kidnappers, and does a great job as bait. During the snatch, something goes awry, and when the ball is in her court, she runs with it instead of using the “distress call”, angering her boss. Before the end of the episode, she is punished and sent to do “phone duty”…for now.

It’s going to be interesting seeing her get back into Don’s good graces, and out of “new guy” status.

Before Numb3rs, she was a cast regular on CBS’s Shark, and had various guest TV roles in other crime drama shows (Numb3rs, Without A Trace, Law and Order, Law and Order: SVU). She also has theatre credits that include Fame: The Musical, Broadway’s The Lion King, and some regional productions that include Jesus Christ Superstar. Sophina also starred in the feature film, Because I Said So, with Diane Keaton, and Mandy Moore.

FBI Drama News: Numb3rs, Eric Close & Fall TV Popularity?

Tue, 08 Jul 2008 20:02:16 +0000

Numb3rs Stars Making News

In some of the most exciting FBI Dramas news, Numb3rs star David Krumholtz is engaged to actor Vanessa Britting. According to his rep, they were engaged last month in Paris during a short vacation, and are set to wed in February 2009. It’s been noted that these two have been dating for 3 1/2 years.

Speaking of Numb3rs, it’s official, Aya Sumika is back…as a regular on Numb3rs. Sumika has portrayed the recurring character, Special Agent Liz Warner, and love interest to Don Eppes (Rob Morrow). It should be interesting to have her along with the firebrand that is Sophina Brown’s new character.

Eric Close Talks Technology

Without A Trace star Eric Close recently co-led an educational training session at a national computing conference on how technology can excite children about education. He and author/educator Peter Reynolds led this interactive investigation to feature Thinkfinity.org, which is an online portal for teachers, students and parents, full of educational resources. Nice to know that Close is so much a part of education, and it’s no wonder since he has two little girls to help educate himself.

The Fall TV Popularity Contest

Been wondering what fall shows will be the highest-rated this time around? New series, Fox’s Fringe and CBS’s Eleventh Hour are the ticket, according to Horizon Media, a company that publishes estimates of how well broadcast shows will perform. Although I haven’t seen this annual report, I wonder what they base their findings on – series concept, or marketing dollars? Check out Horizon Media’s other predictions over at Hollywood Reporter.
