Lightbulbs is now open to discuss my following proposal:
It will no longer be considered a spoiler to reveal guest stars in upcoming episodes of a new or existing show as long as the actor is new to the show.
The scope of this proposal does not include revealing any character or plot details about the role. Just the actor's name.

If you're interested, please email me at allyson dot beatrice @gmail dot com and let me know what your rate is, and I'll pass it along to the author. Thanks!
