ARROW Books Former BATTLESTAR GALACTICA Star Tahmoh Penikett

Wait, did I already say that The CW’s upcoming series ARROW had filled their quota for sci-fi nerd cred? Yeah, they’ve massively surpassed it with this latest casting: Warner Bros. confirms that former BATTLESTAR GALACTICA star Tahmoh Penniket will appear in ARROW’s seventh episode.

According to Green Arrow TV, Penniket will play Tom Salvati, who is the second-in-command to mob boss Frank Bertinelli. Making things a little more complicated is that Bertinelli is the father of Helena Bertinelli…AKA The Huntress. (It’s a very tangled web.)

If you can’t wait until then to see Penniket back on your screens, you can also see him in CASTLE’s fifth season premiere on Monday, September 24th.

ARROW premieres Wednesday, October 10th at 8 PM on The CW. Will you be tuning in?

Carla Kettner Talks Leaving BONES for THE MOB DOCTOR

For BONES fans, Carla Kettner’s name is a familiar one — not only was she with the series since 2007, but she was also responsible many of the show’s most memorable episodes (“The Doctor in the Photo,” “The Goop on the Girl,” “The Hole in the Heart” are just a few of the hours she has to her name). But alas, all good things must come to an end, and Kettner departed the series after last year’s finale.

Luckily for television fans, Kettner hasn’t gone very far — she’s now on the new Fox drama, THE MOB DOCTOR. I sat down with Kettner to talk about her time on BONES, how she would have ended the Pelant arc, moving to THE MOB DOCTOR, and more…

THE MOB DOCTOR’s Zach Gilford Explains Why He Wants Brett to Find Out Grace’s Secret

Zach Gilford is no stranger to television (aside from starring roles in FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS and OFF THE MAP, he’s also had memorable guest spots on GREY’S ANATOMY and LAW & ORDER: SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT), but to woo him to his latest series (Fox’s THE MOB DOCTOR), he joked they had to invoke the name of a certain popular former television star: “[The producers] say, ‘We want you to be George Clooney from ER’ and you say, ‘Of course! Of course I will do that.'”
