Yeah looks like there's going to be an interesting dynamic there

Oh cool that's it's getting closer!

Cereal Killer · 08-19-2014, 12:32 AM

She seems to be giving him a dreamy look.

Cool that the show is gonna start soon!

***dancing in the rain*** · 08-19-2014, 09:15 AM

Yeah exactly, make unrequited love at first

If I get a chance, I'll see if I can check it out

Cereal Killer · 08-19-2014, 08:49 PM

Yep.

I'll have to see if I have a chance to check it out too.

From Scorpian, I'm guessing a clip or promo.

Interesting looking clip, I wonder what he means by "translating the world".

He works with a team of geniuses that are socially awkward and Kat's character, Paige, helps them

Show description from CBS:

Quote:

SCORPION, inspired by a true story, is a high-octane drama about eccentric genius Walter O’Brien and his team of brilliant misfits who comprise the last line of defense against complex, high-tech threats of the modern age. As Homeland Security’s new think tank, O’Brien’s “Scorpion” team includes Toby Curtis, an expert behaviorist who can read anyone; Happy Quinn, a mechanical prodigy; and Sylvester Dodd, a statistics guru. Pooling their extensive technological knowledge to solve mind-boggling predicaments amazes federal agent Cabe Gallo, who shares a harrowing history with O’Brien. However, while this socially awkward group is comfortable with each other’s humor and quirks, life outside their circle confounds them, so they rely on Paige Dineen, who has a young, gifted son, to translate the world for them. At last, these nerdy masterminds have found the perfect job: a place where they can apply their exceptional brainpower to solve the nation’s crises, while also helping each other learn how to fit in.

Oh, I see. Thanks for the info!

***dancing in the rain*** · 08-23-2014, 02:00 PM

I love those kinds of shows

Hope it does well! Thanks for posting that Sarah.

Cereal Killer · 08-25-2014, 08:55 PM

I hope it does well too!

sarah598 · 08-27-2014, 07:10 PM

You're welcome

I hope it does well too! I think I read it's in the same time slot as The Voice, Sleep Hollow, DWTS and not to mention Monday Night Football.

Cereal Killer · 08-27-2014, 07:58 PM

Wow, that's a lot of competition!

***dancing in the rain*** · 08-28-2014, 11:34 PM

Oh wow it is. I hope fans tune in anyway.

Interview with Katharine:

Quote:

1) If you could spend the day with any CBS star past or present, who would it be and why?  
LL cool J. He’s a legend in both acting and the music industry. And a total staple for CBS television.

2) If you could teleport to any time and place in history where would you go?
I would teleport to when dinosaurs roamed the earth.

3) How would you boil down your life philosophy using only a Twitter hashtag?
#youretooblessedtobestressed

4) What’s on your music playlist right now?
I have all kinds of music on my music playlist from Bruno Mars, Rudimental, Sam Smith, Sia to Ariana Grande.

5) What kind of photos are you a sucker for on Instagram or other photo sharing sites?
I follow lots of jewelry designers on Instagram. It’s mouthwatering and dangerous for my pocket.

6) What’s your “go-to” Karaoke song?
I can’t stand doing Karaoke! I love to watch but it just never ends up being fun for me. I get so shy in that situation.

7) What character from another CBS show would your character have a crush on?
My character would have a crush Leonard from The Big Bang Theory.

8) What prop would you most want to steal from the set of your show?  
Toby’s tape deck from the 90s.

9) What was your very first job?
I worked at Daily Grill as a hostess! And I loved it.

10) With what famous person, dead or living, would you like the chance to have dinner?
In light of the recent loss of this amazing man, I would have loved to had a chance to meet Robin Williams. Having dinner or lunch with him would have been a dream.

And some pictures from the Pre-Emmy EW party:

sarah598 · 08-29-2014, 07:15 PM

I hope so too. If Kat wasn't in Scorpion I don't think I would go out of my way to watch it

Thanks for posting the interview and pics. It's interesting that she's shy about doing karaoke!

Pretty pics!

***dancing in the rain*** · 08-30-2014, 06:30 PM

Maybe other people are the same

Yeah that was interesting she's shy. I liked her answers to the hashtag and playlist questions.
