Meanwhile, the tension between Emily and Tyler will come to a head, Daniel can't seem to catch a break, and both of the Porter boys make bold moves to get their girl, on 'Revenge,' WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 26 (10:00-11:00 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network.

When Ashley Madekwe learned that her character, Ashley, was being written out of ABC's "Revenge" in this season's premiere, she asked the writers to get rid of her in "a big, splashy death." Instead, Ashley was run out of town. Zzzzzz. But now Madekwe will see some real action as one of the stars of WGN America's period drama "Salem," which is based on the real-life Massachusetts witch hunts and will debut this spring.
