Brothers & Sisters is a show filled with relationship drama, but some couples are more interesting than others. I doubt anyone is hoping for another storyline that puts Tommy and Julia front and center, and I'm also finding Rebecca and Justin a bit boring now that they've settled down. Remember the good old days when their relationship was borderline incestuous? At least that made them more interesting to watch.
Tonight's episode of Brothers & Sisters pushes the young lovers to the background, instead focusing on Uncle Saul's personal life. How will he handle his first date as an out gay man? To get fans ready for the new installment, entitled "Going Once. . .Going Twice," we have some clips from the episode.

During the very short-lived version of The Apprentice hosted by Martha Stewart, the domestic goddess mentioned how much she hates the term "fake it till you make it." Faking it usually doesn't fly in the business world, but that didn't stop wannabe Internet superstars Ethan and Kyle from lying about their company on last night's Brothers & Sisters. The duplicitous duo promised Sarah that they were on the verge of raking in millions, but in reality their business was being run out of a dingy apartment. Despite the lies, Sarah felt inspired by their passion and ended up taking the job.
Ethan and Kyle weren't the only ones faking it in last night's episode. Tommy and Kevin agreed to act like best friends for Justin's benefit, and Nora tricked Kitty into assisting with the search for Ryan.

It's rare when the pairing of two young, attractive television characters stirs up controversy, but the coupling of Justin and Rebecca on Brothers & Sisters has accomplished just that. The duo discovered their feelings for one another shortly after realizing they weren't related, which is a rather icky way to start a relationship. The current season of the ABC series has found them opening up to each other emotionally, and, in the latest episode, finally having sex for the first time. We've had plenty of time to adjust to the idea of the couple, so why does their relationship still feel creepy and wrong?

Saul (Ron Rifkin) may be the most low-key and reserved member of the Walker family on Brothers & Sisters, but it's been fascinating to watch his evolution since the pilot episode. Season 2 of the series found the character grappling with the homosexuality he had been trying to deny for years, which he eventually came to terms with. In a recent episode, Saul decided to quit his job at Ojai Foods after Holly and Tommy made too many changes to the business. Saul planned to use the opportunity to retire, allowing him to spend his golden years looking for love.
According to Entertainment Weekly's Michael Ausiello, Saul will soon find love, at least for about three episodes. Former Smallville cast member John Glover is set to appear on Brothers & Sisters, playing a fellow gay man who Saul quickly falls for.

The missing Walker sibling has finally been found, and Ryan Lafferty will arrive later in the season at last. On Brothers & Sisters, the family has been hunting for William Walker's unaccounted for child. Now, in the series' third season, he'll finally make an appearance. According to E! Online, the actor who has been chosen for the role is newcomer Luke Grimes.
Upon knowledge that the storyline would cover an illegitimate Walker sibling, rumors were spread that a big name would land the part. It was reported that Jason Ritter or Jason Dohring would be cast, but it was Grimes who signed on. Sources revealed that he'll be making his way into the small screen on Brothers & Sisters' 14th episode. The question now is, how will he fit into the series?

Last week's episode of Brothers & Sisters found two of the Walkers experiencing major career changes. Both Sarah and Saul (Ron Rifkin) decided to leave Ojai due to the meddling from Holly and Tommy, which left a lot of tension brewing between the siblings. Aside from that drama, Kevin backed into the closet for a shot at a promotion, and Justin awkwardly met with a fellow soldier from Iraq.
There's even more career upheaval on tonight's Brothers & Sisters, as Rebecca takes on a new job and Kevin receives an interesting offer from Robert.

After a riveting “Tug of War” on Brothers and Sisters last week, the series returns this time focusing on the chaotic events in a garage sale. On “Everything Must Go,” the Walker family tries to deal with Nora’s decision to start anew by getting rid of the old.
Thinking of establishing a new charity venture, Nora (Sally Field) believes it’s time to make a clean sweep of William’s belongings. She opens up a garage sale, hoping that everything that reminds her of her late husband would be taken away. There’s just too much junk stored in the home, as well as in the family’s memories.

Last week's episode of Brothers & Sisters found the Walkers bickering with one another once again. All the anger in the family was directed toward Kitty, who revealed she wrote a memoir about Robert's campaign. Not only did she paint the Walkers as less than sane in the tell-all, but she'll also have to resign from her position if the book gets published. Aside from that drama, Rebecca foolishly turned down her two million dollar trust fund, Holly met with a lawyer to track down Ryan, and Kitty got the approval from a social worker to go ahead with the adoption.
On tonight's Brothers & Sisters, Kevin has to decide if his career is more important than his integrity, while Saul and Sarah ponder leaving Ojai.
