Can The CW’s ‘Arrow’ Survive the Summer Glau Curse?

Summer-Glau-Panties

Summer Glau has scored a recurring role on season two of The CW’s new hit series “Arrow”… Uh-Oh.

Well, it was good while it lasted. At least it wasn’t Marvel’s “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” Now, don’t get me wrong. I’m not hating on Glau. She’s a talented actor and made Clatto’s list of the 20 Hottest Women Working in Horror/Sci-Fi. But, let’s face it. Glau is to TV shows what a dead albatross is to a sailor: bad news.

Glau came to fame on Joss Whedon’s gone-to-soon sci-fi western “Firefly.” She has since spelled doom for a string of popular shows, including “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles,” “Dollhouse,” “The Cape,” “The Unit” and “Alphas.”

Deadline reports that Glau will play the recurring role of dangerous businesswoman Isabel Rochev. Here’s hoping the curse is broken!

Night Shyamalan’s new Fox limited series “Wayward Pines.” The ten-episode mystery thriller is based on the Blake crouch novel of the same name and is described to have a “Twin Peaks” vibe.

“Wayward Pines” follows a Secret Service agent Ethan Burke (Dillon) on assignment to find two missing federal agents in the Idaho town of wayward Pines. What he finds are mysterious and sinsiter happenings that threaten the very core of who he is as a person.

According to THR, Gugino plays Wayward Pines resident Kate Hewson, Burke’s former lover and ex-partner in the Secret Service. The series was penned by Hodge and is slated to debut in 2014.
