Did CBS derail Cuoco's 'Grey's' gig?

It appears the case of Kaley Cuoco's disappearing Grey's Anatomy guest stint has been cracked!

Although the actress' rep says an unforeseen "publicity commitment" forced the Big Bang Theory star to back out of a top-secret appearance on Grey's Anatomy's May 14 season finale, multiple sources now tell me that it was her current employer, CBS, that put the kibosh on the deal. An Eye spokesperson couldn't be reached for comment, but as one insider explains, "They didn't want one of their biggest stars appearing on one of ABC's biggest shows."

As a result, Grey's has tapped former O.C. starlet Shannon Lucio (she played Caleb's illegitimate daughter, Lindsay) to fill Cuoco's shoes.

Still unknown: Who the heck is she playing? Some of you initially (and understandably) speculated that, based on Cuoco's resemblance to Katherine Heigl, perhaps the character is a relative of Izzie's. That possibility seems less likely with the casting of Lucio... or does it? ABC isn't spilling, so I once again open the floor to you guys: Do you still think there's an Izzie connection to this character? And getting back to Cuoco, can you understand why CBS might not be keen on loaning her out to the competition? Sound off below! (source)

Talk about neglecting a website...I'm so sorry. If anyone is interested in helping me with this site, I'd appreciate if you would contact me.

In Shannon news, she currently has a recurring role on FOX's tv show Prison Break. I spotted her much to my surprise. I hadn't seen any heads-up about her guest stint. I have added caps of the first two episodes she appeared in, caps from the latest episode will be online asap. I know that Shannon will be in the next two upcoming episodes, so look forward to more caps. She looks really stunning on the show.

Various sources have confirmed the network has passed on the high-concept drama, about three different couples who inhabit the same house at three different times - a young couple who just lost a child in 1967 (Matt Lanter, Shannon Lucio), a family of four in 1987 (headed by Michael Rispoli and Romy Rosemont) and a pregnant couple in 2007 (Bahar Soomekh, Jeremy Renner) - but are connected by mysterious spirits that appear to haunt it. David Schulner penned the pilot, which was directed by Michael Cuesta. The pair also served as executive producers alongside Gina Matthews, Grant Scharbo and Shawn Ryan for 20th Century Fox Television. The studio reportedly is shopping the project around to other networks. (source)

I truly apologize for the lack of updates, but there hasn't really been any Shannon news lately.

Anyways, thanks to TeeJay who informed me that Shannon's movie Graduation will be released on DVD on May 13. You can already pre-order the movie at Amazon.com.

Feast of Love has already been released on DVD.
Too bad that I don't live in the US, so I'm not sure if we'll be getting those DVDs over here. If anyone can contribute scans, please send them in. You will receive full credit.

Welcome to Shannon Lucio Fan - your newest resource for all things on this wonderful actress. I finally decided to put this fansite online after planning to do so since January. Not everything is finished though and I'm looking for all kinds of Shannon related contributions, especially stuff for the graphics section like fanart, icons, wallpapers, etc.

If you have anything to contribute, then please do so by emailing me at janine@shannon-lucio.com. Full credit will of course be given to the contributor.

Here's hoping you'll enjoy this site and that we'll have some Shannon news soon.
