Actress Frances Fisher will guest star in a 2014 episode of Castle that will be very Devil Wears Prada-esque. She will play Matilda King, a fashion mogul who runs this magazine, Modern Fashion, who crossed paths with Beckett when she briefly flirted with a career as a model. Castle will be back after its holiday hiatus on ABC on January 6.

Gail O'Grady and Brett Cullen

Actress Gail O’Grady (NYPD Blue) will appear in Revenge as the ex-wife of Conrad Grayson (series regular Henry Czerny). Divorced from Conrad, who left her for Victoria, for over 25 years, O’Grady’s character will be “West Coast posh” paying a surprise (and very unexpected) visit to her former hubby. Also, actor Brett Cullen (Devious Maids and Friday Night Lights) will have a recurring role in the show, playing Jimmy, the biological father of Victoria’s (series lead Madeleine Stowe) love child Patrick (Justin Hartley). The fall finale of Revenge will air on ABC on December 15.

Orphan Black will be back for its second season on April 14 on BBC America.

Robert Knepper

Actor Robert Knepper (Prison Break, Heroes and Cult) will play the “plum role” of master criminal William Tockman aka “Clock King”  on Arrow.
