Sci-Fi Casts New Series

Smallville fans will be happy to know Supergirl (Laura Vandervoort) will be appearing in the new Sci-Fi series, Riverworld, also starring Battlestar Galactica heavy, Tahmoh Penikett. Sci-Fi cast Riverworld, along with The Phantom (Desperate Housewives' Ryan Carnes) - two movies they plan to try and spin into ongoing series.

Sci-Fi has had mixed results with its series, including notable failures such as Flash Gordon and successes like Eureka. Battlestar Galactica deserves special mention for straddling the bridge.

Vandervoort appeared as Clark Kent's Kryptonian cousin for only a handful of episodes on Smallville. For whatever reason, producers did not feel the character made a good fit and the storyline was dropped.
