Lana and The Arrow

In the 6-degrees of Smallville News the CW network announced that it was adding Green Arrow in a show called Arrow to the fall line-up, and Kristin Kreuk is returning to television with the Beauty and the Beast reboot.  Arrow, which is produced by Greg Berlanti and Marc Guggenheim, stars Stephen Amell as Oliver Queen, Katie Cassidy (Dinah Lance/Black Canary), and Willa Holland (Thea Queen).  Now that the series has made the schedule its next hurdle will be scoring high enough ratings to survive the first cut of new series.  The CW network is hoping Arrow can come close to the success of Smallville, the long-running DC Comics-based series, which featured Kristin Kreuk as Lana Lang.  There's not much on what the reboot of Beauty and the Beast will be like.  The original series starred Linda Hamilton and Ron Pearlman and as it was it would be perfect for the type of programing CW does these days.  However it would be interesting if they went Battlestar Galactica on it, though judging from shows like Secret Circle and Vampire Dairies let's not hold our breaths.
