'Men of a Certain Age' Cast, Creators on What to Expect in the Final Episodes ...

Is the epitome of a series flying under the radar.

With ratings steadily dropping since the series launched in fall 2009 (co-creator Mike Royce parially attributed the drop to confusion with the network's weekly programming in Season 1), one question looms: Will the show be return for a third round?

Though the answer may not come in the very near future, Royce, Ray Romano, Scott Bakula and Brittany Curran touted the last three episodes of the second season, which ends July 6 -- and even revealed a small spoiler or two.

1. Everyone is at a crossroads: The show centers on people who have lived half their lives, and though their issues may seem miniscule (at least in television standards), in life, they are all the more significant. "In the last three episodes, [Joe's] fallen into the hole with his gambling," Romano, co-creator and star, tells The Hollywood Reporter . Bakula added, "He's trying to get back on the love train with his girlfriend and trying to figure out if that's actually going to work. He's getting ready to make a big career shift again , which he's hoping will be more fulfilling for him as opposed to being a car salesman."

"We wrap them up pretty well," Romano shared. "I'm not going to say whether they're all successful, but we address them all. And then there's a vampire -- and a Transformer."

2. More inappropriate relationships?: Curran, who plays Romano's on-screen daughter Lucy, joked that there would be one storyline that she would personally love to see play out -- mainly because it is out of left field. "You know what I think would be funny? And I can tell you they're not going to do this, I think it would be hilarious -- you know how Scott Bakula's character likes younger women -- if something happened between me and his character and Ray just died," Curran said to THR with a laugh. "It would be just a crazy twist. Ray would lose his mind, Scott would los his mind. It's Hollywood, anything can happen."

DVD/Blu-Ray Cover Art and Specs for Camelot and Spartacus: Gods of ...

“Spartacus: Gods of the Arena” is the prequel to the widely popular Starz Original series “Spartacus: Blood and Sand.” Executive produced by Rob Tapert, Sam Raimi, Joshua Donen and Steven S. DeKnight, the 6 exhilarating episodes explore the House of Batiatus as it rises — basking in the glow of its infamous champion Gannicus, whose skill with a sword is matched only by his thirst for wine and women. These are the times a young Batiatus has been waiting for. Poised to overthrow his father and take control, he’ll freely betray anyone to ensure his gladiators are in the highest demand. And he’ll have his loyal and calculating wife, Lucretia, by his side for every underhanded scheme, drawing on the brazen talents of her seductive friend Gaia when it counts. Together, they will stop at nothing to deceive the masses, seize power and bleed Capua dry.

Joining returning stars, John Hannah (The Mummy, Four Weddings and A Funeral) as Batiatus, Lucy Lawless (“Xena: Warrior Princess”) as Lucretia and Peter Mensah (300, The Incredible Hulk) as Oenomaus, are talented new cast members Dustin Clare (“Underbelly”) as Gannicus, Jaime Murray (“Hu$tle”) as Gaia and Marisa Ramirez (“General Hospital”) as Melitta.

“Camelot,” premiered April 1, 2011 and was the most watched series debut ever on Starz. The 10-episode epic drama, redefines the classic medieval tale of King Arthur with an exciting ensemble cast including Joseph Fiennes reimagining the iconic role of Merlin, Jamie Campbell Bower as the young and reckless Arthur, and Eva Green in her television debut as the darkly powerful Morgan. The character-driven series also features Tamsin Egerton (Guinevere), Claire Forlani (Igraine) and Peter Mooney (Kay). Beginning in the wake of King Uther’s sudden death, the sorcerer Merlin has visions of a dark future and installs Arthur as king. But Arthur’s cold and ambitious half-sister Morgan will fight him to the bitter end for control of the crown. Faced with the challenge of uniting a kingdom broken by war and steeped in deception, Arthur is tested beyond imagination.
