When Tyler's mom was killed off, there were interviews up the next morning with her actor/producers.  None seem to be present for Jeremy's actor here, leading me to think this isn't what it looks like.

The entire run of Joe Schmo 2 is currently on my cable's OnDemand service for free.

Simpler explanation is that he bulked up for the storyline.

Just realized one of those "oh, duh" things- it's not just that Stefan doesn't want Elena changing into something different - it's that he doesn't want her becoming Katherine.

They'll need some help expanding next season - moving Varys' story so that it's told alongside Dany's adventures makes sense.

You really haven't picked up on the voting patterns over the last 4 seasons? Older southern females are the dominant voting bloc.  (Hence the heavy country/WGWG pattern that's developed in recent seasons.) It's no longer a representative sample of the country voting.

It had gotten pretty clear that something was up during the dinner before they left to the restroom, and that Heinz had been shopping around.  The wife's comments to Megan make perfect sense given the imminent end of the relationship.

I don't think that Ben actually planted the gun. It's way too big a production oversight to use a different model in the later scene if that's the intent.  However, my take is that Ben clearly would have "gone there" if he needed to in order to take this guy out.

That was definitely a Seven reference.

The wound wasn't very deep, was it? It was essentially a ghastly C-Section.

Someone mentioned there was a Family Guy cutaway gag making fun of the USA-network type shows on a site, and I now can't find it- could someone help jog my memory as to what clip I should be looking for?

Don't skip it. It's hard to explain why without heading into spoiler territory, just trust that it's probably important.
