That’s a new record, folks. 20 seconds. Luke was just in (less than) 20 seconds of last night’s episode of “Brothers & Sisters”. High definition captures have been added to the gallery:

Luke wasn’t in last night’s season premiere of “Brothers & Sisters”, therefore no caps or clips will be added today. Luke also didn’t attend the “Brothers & Sisters” premiere party on Saturday September 26.

But fear not, I have some photoshoots to add later today or tomorrwow.

ABC finally released some new promotional photos for the fourth season of “Brothers & Sisters”:

According to German blog Serienjunkies.de (read Google translation clicking here) Luke has been promoted to series regular for the forth season of “Brothers & Sisters”.

The article closes with a quote from Luke:

It’s nice to finally get a chair with my name on it on set, instead of just one labelled ‘Cast’.

If anyone who speaks German could confirm that Google translations did its job right, I would be grateful.

Edit (July 17): TV Guide Magazine is also reporting this.

The Walker dinner table is going to need an extra wine glass next season. TV Guide Magazine has learned that Luke Grimes will be added as a regular to Brothers & Sisters. He’s no stranger to the Walker clan, appearing in a guest-starring stint last year as the family patriarch’s illegitimate son, Ryan Lafferty. Now that he gets to play the role full-time, Grimes is looking forward to at least one fringe benefit. “It’s nice to finally have a chair with my name on it rather than just ‘Cast.’”

If you missed Luke on “Brothers & Sisters” the first time, you have a second chance to watch his episodes this summer. Here’s the list of the confirmed re-runs (10pm on ABC):

- July 5: 3.18 “Taking Sides” (view captures / view videos)
- July 12: 3.19 “Spring Broken” (view captures / view videos)
- July 19: 3.20 “Missing” (view captures / view videos)
