Even though the anticipatory wait continues for Season 6 (3 months left), we now have a starting lineup of notable guest stars that will hopefully bring all the heat that could in fact keep our minds off of Fiona’s imprisonment. Straight from the Huffington Post, we know that Michael will be reconnecting with a Mr. Tom Card (portrayed by John C. McGinley from Dr. Perry Cox on “Scrubs”), Michael’s CIA training officer who taught him everything he knows. Tom, being enthusiastic to work with our burned spy again, supports Mike in every effort to be reinstated. Unlike the many parasites that have swarmed Michael previously, Tom is far from the enemy lines and would be beneficial in Mike’s hunt for vindication because of his astute intelligence gathering and Agency influence. Let’s hope the two can find anything that can liberate the lovely Fiona who is currently joined in the cell/hole with the low-profile Nicole.

Nicole (portrayed by Taryn Manning from Cherry on “Sons of Anarchy”) is pretty tough, but serves as a friendly to Fiona who needs the most allies during this time. Next up is the Mexican drug cartel kingpin, “Montero” (portrayed by Anthony Ruivivar from McCrady on “Adjustment Bureau”) who will probably be another leech in Mike’s way. The three are scheduled to appear on the second episode of season 6 which will be directed Jeffrey Donovan.
