“Game of Thrones” alum Natalie Dormer has joined the cast of “Penny Dreadful: City of Angels,” Showtime announced Friday.
Dormer will play Magda, a supernatural demon who can take the appearance of anyone she chooses and manifests in a number of guises throughout the story. Charismatic, clever and chameleonic, Magda is a dangerous enemy and an invaluable ally.
While “Penny Dreadful” was set in Victorian-era London, “City of Angels” opens in 1938 Los Angeles, a time and place deeply infused with social and political tension. When a grisly murder shocks the city, Detective Tiago Vega (Daniel Zovatto) is embroiled in an epic story that reflects the rich history of Los Angeles: from the building of the city’s first freeways and its deep traditions of Mexican-American folklore, to the dangerous espionage actions of the Third Reich and the rise of radio evangelism.

Fox’s Empire ruled 8 Pm in the demo Wednesday night. And while ticking up in total viewers week to week, the music drama ceded that derby to Survivor: Ghost Island. CBS’s competition series remained Wednesday’s most-watched program and topped primetime for a seventh consecutive week in viewers (7.92m).
At 8:30 Pm, third week of ABC’s Alex Inc. hung on to previous week’s demo rating, despite a 14% drop in its The Goldbergs lead-in. That put Alex’s retention at 75% this week.
Empire lead-out Star hung on to Fox’s demo lead at 9 Pm, though it shared top spot in its first half hour with ABC’s Modern Family. CBS’s Seal Team returned to snag total viewers in its hour.
With its first original in three weeks, NBC’s Chicago P.D. took the 10 Pm hour in the demo and total viewers, besting CBS’s Criminal Minds and ABC’s Designated Survivor.

Hey, fellow Riverdale fans. We're sure that most of you guys were wondering where in the hell was the new episode 18 last night? Unfortunately, it turned out to be a rerun of episode 13 which of course already aired earlier this season. Yeah, for some reason, the next,new episode 18 has been delayed for quite some time, but not extremely long. It's not going to air next Wednesday night either. It's currently scheduled to hit the airwaves on Wednesday night, April 18, 2018 in it's usual 7 pm central time slot. So, be sure to mark that important date down on your TV calendars. What is The CW airing instead of Riverdale next week? According to the TV Guide listings, they will be airing a special Harry Potter show. It's titled, "Harry Potter: A History of Magic." It will apparently take up most of the primetime duration with a runtime of an hour and a half.
