Charisma to Guest-Star on "Greek"

[Platypus]

Damn - while I'm relatively happy that she's getting work, and also that ABC Family seems to like her so much... I don't get that channel here in Canada!!!!

Anyway, I don't know anything about the show - here's the link, which suggests that she might be back next season if the show is renewed:

Ditto - I also know nothing about the show. But:thumbsup:

I believe this calls for Standard Response #17:

w00t!!!

[tojoson]

I haven't been watching this show. I guess I'll have to start and catch up on the story.

It's on tonight at 9:00 P.M. eastern time right after 'Kyle X'.

Great news, and I like the way they describe the character
"She's part Scully and part Cordelia,"

[SamIAm]

Well, the show seems to be getting good reviews anyway, if my totally unscientific whirlwind romp through TV sites is an indicator, so yay! I have no idea why they'd need a Scurdelia full time, but color me happy for a potential gig next season.

[Freakface]

I haven't been watch much TV lately, but with Charisma in a Greek party, I'll be watching. :eee:

An image to see: Charisma doing a beer bong...

ABC Family (http://abcfamily.go.com/broadband/player.html) does stream it. Dunno if it's blocked outside of the Ewe Ess of Aye though.

[nickletv]

LMAO, just yesterday I was thinking that while I was kinda bummed CC hadn't turned up in anything lately, I was hoping she was happy spending time with her son and that she wasn't sweatin the lack of work.

And then BAM! she gets a gig on GREEK. ABC Family still showing her the love.

Good for her. I can't wait to see Brainy!Cordy stirring up trouble.

[DamnSkippy]

This is showing up on my cable on both the normal ABC channel and ABC Family channel. Maybe it's crossing into Canada the same way. I haven't watched it yet because I was never a fan of sororities or fraternities, but reading some of the reviews makes me think it might be worth the watch.

An episode is coming on at 9:00 pm on Friday on my local ABC channel, so I'll give it a looky loo.

In any case, I am soooooo glad CC's got a gig!!! :D

[Lovin' Lorne]

Yay! I've never even considered watching that show, but now I might have to take a look. If it's not my cup of tea, much like Veronica Mars and Charmed, then I shall be happy to support her from the sidelines! :)

[Luna]

I´ve never heard of that show, but I´m happy that Charisma is getting work again.:) Is she doing more eps or just one?

Well, the series has been picked up for another season so we might be seeing her again in future episodes. :beer:

Standard Response #12: What <STRIKE>Platy</STRIKE> Penny Said

[Gabriella]

I've never seen the show but I cannot WAIT to see her in something new!

[SamIAm]

Variety says ABC Family ordered ten more episodes (http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117969505.html?categoryid=14&cs=1) for this season, so there may not be an entire year to wait for more CC appearances if the gig ends up being more than a one-shot. And, I guess, if Ausiello meant season finale for the ten-episode season or the twenty.

[tojoson]

From the IMDB news feed

here (http://pro.imdb.com/news/hwr/2007-08-01/tv/2)

The episodes are set to air early next year

[SamIAm]

These folks (http://www.afterellen.com/blog/jamielynn/charisma-carpenter-goes-greek) are pretty pleased that CC's got the job too.

[SamIAm]

Thank you SO much for passing that link along. Seriously. :)

Thank Google news alerts. ;) You're right; it was kind of 'wow' reading all the positive comments on another site.

[Clarice]

I have to see this program *__* I'm so happy for CC :horn::beer:

[Luna]

It´s great to read that the people on that site are writing so positive about Charisma, they seem to be happy to see her on that show.:)

[Penny Century]

Meanwhile, at ABC Family's Web site for "Greek," (http://a51.abcfamily.go.com/shows/greek/insider5.html) here's what appears to be a brand-new CC photo -- and apparent confirmation that she will be back next season.

Yeah!!!!!! :roll:

Finally some Charisma on the Tube. :mush:

And a possible scene: Charisma doing a beer bong!!! :beer:

[maverick]

Hopefully this will just be the start of series of gigs. We need more Charisma on the screen small or big.

[Luna]

That´s great news and Charisma looks pretty in that pic!:)

And it is confirmed that the finale is September 10:
"Black White and Read All Over" - The Greek world is turned upside down when an undercover reporter publishes an expose about the scandalous secrets of fraternities and sororities.

[Livvie]

Jebus, is that woman getting younger looking?

Thanks for the picture though. Totally saved for future droolage. :)

[Luna]

Thanks for the pic!

Charisma looks georgeous as always.:)

BBC Three are picking it up! :D

Great - can't find a start date though. The BBC seems to have had a change in policy recently, for a while they have not picked up any U.S. Tv series - now they have Heroes, Medium and this.

[Bert]

The BBC haven't picked up many recently, but they had Buffy - and cut it to pieces.

Still, maybe BBC Three will be different...

True - though, unless my memory's failing, they broadcast an uncut version late at night. I think "Buffy" was the last U.S. series they bought prior to "Medium".

[nodakskip]

Surprised no one has mentioned this yet. But Greek is one of the shows available on Itunes for the ipods. And you can download the full episodes a day or so after it airs. Its only a 1.99 or so per ep.

If you don't have an ipod you can just watch it on your pc.

[Freakface]

Shuttegbug over at FanForum.com grabbed more still of Charisma. She looks beautiful as always. Major credit to Shutterbug. :encore:

Thanks for bringing those pics over. :)

More pics from 'Greek'

here (http://www.whedon.info/Charisma-Carpenter-Greek-Tv-Series,23695.html)

Most seen before, but a couple of new ones

[tojoson]

From today's Ask Ausiello,

Question: Can you please give me some scoop on Greek?— Ceili

Ausiello: First off, you guys were right — this show rocks my socks off. Before I left on my little vacay, I hosted my own personal Greek marathon and now I'm caught up on the entire first season — and yes, that includes the Sept. 10 season finale (thanks, ABC Family, for the pre-screener!). And, wow, what an action-packed finale it is. (Spoiler alert) In addition to three breakups, a mole is discovered in the Omega Chi house, Calvin is betrayed by someone close to him, a major character's secret is exposed, and special guest star Charisma Carpenter predictably steals every scene she's in. I can't wait for second semester!

TV Gal is also supposed to have a report next week on Greek's final with (in her words) 'Charisma Carpenter (Yay).'

[samsmom]

Let's hope this leads to more opportunities for Charisma.

I'd love to see her on regular TV again, not playing a femme fatale.

Thanks for posting this. :D

[Luna]

Thanks for all the pretty pics of Charisma!:)

It´s great that she had found some work again.:beer:

[Freakface]

Just a reminder that her episode and the finale is tonight at 9pm EDT and repeat at 12am EDT. Set Tivo, VCR, DVR, and anything else.

[nodakskip]

Watched it and thought it was good. And CC does do well in it. There was a "And Charisma Carpenter" promo before the episode. I've got it on my tivo. And I will try for screen grabs.

But since it should be on itunes soon, does it matter to be uploaded?

I uploaded her scenes and posted it in the discussion thread in case someone wanted to watch just her and not pay for it. It's a crappy capture but I figured someone would probably upload the iTunes version before too long.

[Clarice]

Thank you so much, DamnSkippy :beer:

[nodakskip]

On the abc family site there is a tiny blurb

"They've Got Charisma!

All our stars have charisma, but this week, they've got Charisma Carpenter to contend with too! You prolly know her from "Buffy," "Angel," "Veronica Mars," and other fan-adored TV, but here's Miss C again, seen in a scene with Spencer Grammer, surrounded by extras and crew on a coffeehouse set. "

plus a small backstage pic of CC during filming.

[Bryan]

ABC Family seem to like her a lot - maybe wishful thinking, but perhaps they are waiting for a suitable vehicle to cast her in.

[Penny Century]

FYI -- Charisma's episode, "Black, White and Read All Over" is now available at iTunes and currently is the #1 TV download.
