Charisma Carpenter slated for 'Legend of the Seeker' season premiere
Charisma Carpenter is moving from Hell-Lay to D'Hara. The geek-bait hottie behind "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Angel's" Cordelia Chase will be guest-starring in the second season premiere of "Legend of the Seeker," the New Zealand-based syndicated fantasy show from executive producers Sam Raimi and Rob Tapert.
Executive Producer Kenneth Biller told a packed room at Comic-Con that Carpenter will appear at Triana, a leather-clad Mord'Sith warrior woman who inflicts pain. So, it's not that much of a stretch from Buffy-era Cordelia, is it? Footage from the second season promised fans a tear in the veil to the underworld which would release skin-flaying scary creatures bent on wiping out all life at the behest of The Keeper of the Underworld. Plus, at least one hot, leather-clad, girl-on-girl kiss. Based on the reaction in the room, the producers know their audience -- that split second snippet got a resounding "Whoo!"
While Carpenter's Mord'Sith hottie is only on tap for the season premiere, Biller announced that Australian actress Tabrett Bethell, who played Mord'Sith Cara in the season finale, will be joining the cast as a series regular.
The second season of "Legend of the Seeker" premieres in syndication the weekend of Nov. 7. Check your local listings for time and channel.

Get on a better show as a regular!!!!!!
I concur with A.D.!
This show is AWESOME!! And Yes, I've read the books! This is an intense show (not for young kids). I can't wait for Season 2!! Note to Disney: You're doing going great with this show -- don't mess it up!
Would love a soundtrack -- the music is fantastic.
I agree with S.F.! This show is so underappreciated!It's awesome! Best show in years by far! I too can't wait for season 2 and would also love a soundtrack. :)
Yes! I am so excited that Charisma Carpender will be guest-starring on one of my favorite shows! Hopefully, Charisma will attract more viewers--Legend of the Seeker is currently under-rated, but as the word gets out, more people will realize what fans already know: that this is an awesome show deserving much more attention! Can't wait for Nov.7, Season 2 premiere!
Yay!! Cordy in an awesome show!
She'll make a gorgeous Mord'Sith!
Can't wait =)Season 2 cannot come fast enough!
I like Legend of the Seeker, and I like Charisma Carpenter so both together should be double goodness especially if Charisma is in one of those Mord Sith outfits from last season which hug the curves. Nice!!!
I stopped watching Legend of the Seeker midseason. It was to bizarre as compared to the world the books layed out. Yes I even gave it a fair shot trying not to compare it to the books. It failed. Glad to see Charisma in skin tight leather but still not worth my time to tune in.
Oh I like this, I like this a lot.
Love 'Legend of the Seeker', Love the 'Sword of Truth' Books, Love Bridget & Craig & Bruce & Cast, and Love that Charisma is guest-starring :)
Bring on Season 2! :)
