“White Collar” returns for the back half of Season 4 in just a few short weeks on USA. Here are six fun tidbits to look forward to when the show comes back:

• The episode, titled “Family Business,” picks up right where the summer finale left off, so don’t worry about not getting to see Neal confront his father (guest star Treat Williams).
• Elizabeth gets to do a little save-the-day act, which is always fun. We love when Elle gets involved in the case of the week.
• There are flashbacks to when Neal was a kid and we get the full story about what went down with his mother, father, Ellen and the frame-up (pictured below).
• For the case of the week, which ties into the overarching story, Neal and Mozzie get to go undercover as booze counterfeiters, which we didn’t even know was a thing. Better check that liquor cabinet…
• Peter makes Neal drink pickle juice to cure a hangover. Not exactly a juicy (ahem) tidbit, but it’s funny nonetheless.
• Get the tissues ready for the final scene — it’s maybe Matt Bomer’s finest moment on the show.

“White Collar” comes back for the final six episodes of Season 4 Tuesday, Jan. 22 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on USA. [x]

White Collar’s Willie Garson Hits up Kickstarter for Web Series
The satirical art comedy, Whole Day Down crowd funds Season 2

Los Angeles, CA (January 6th, 2012): The offbeat online comedy series, Whole Day Down launches a Kickstarter campaign to crowd fund Season 2. The series stars, Willie Garson (Sex and the City, White Collar) and Patrick Breen (The Normal Heart) playfully appeal for your support in their pitch video as they explain the series, the campaign and it’s unique backer rewards.

Whole Day Down follows the misadventures of two misguided art enthusiasts (played by Garson and Breen) whose attempt to open a gallery initiates the Apocalypse. The series both satirizes and embraces contemporary art, which is a cornerstone of every episode.

The series, which has received critical acclaim and accolades was created by Breen and Tai Fauci (Palisades Pool Party), and also stars Clueless’ Elisa Donovan. The series debuted Season 1 at the prestigious, New York Television Festival and was named to the Writer’s Guild of America “hotlist” in 2012.

“If “Curb Your Enthusiasm” and “The Twilight Zone” had a baby, Whole Day Down would be its evil twin,” describes Fauci. “The show is offbeat, oddball and out of this world. We have an anything goes mentality. We’re quite bonkers actually.”

In Season 2, the creators unleash the apocalypse that was only hinted at in Season 1. The creators promise bigger FX, bigger art and bigger guests stars. To make it all happen they need your help.

 “We are asking for a little bit of money from a whole lot of people to make an entire season,” explains Garson. The series aims to raise an ambitious $39,995.00 in 26 days.
Backer rewards range from just $5 to a whopping $10,000. Rewards include original works of art, producing credits, ringtones, show memorabilia, autographs, set visits and more.

About Whole Day Down:
Whole Day Down documents the reinvention of Willie Garson and Patrick Breen, two failed, middle-aged actors, as they pursue their mutual passion for art by opening a gallery. Limited to one Monday a month, in a space owned by Patrick’s dictatorial Father-in-Law, our heroes must overcome a vindictive art critic out for blood, a satanic receptionist, a bizarre love pentagram and a roster of unorthodox and often difficult artists. So inevitable are their failures it becomes clear darker forces are at play and that their innocent forays into the art world trigger the Apocalypse.
