‘Worst Week’ Lures Oscar Winner Olympia Dukakis

Olympia DukakisThis just in: Best Supporting Actress Academy Award winner (1987′s Moonstruck) and multiple Emmy nominee Olympia Dukakis is taking her act to CBS’ new hit sitcom Worst Week.

Dukakis is set to guest star on the episode called “The Ring” as Melanie’s paternal grandmother June Clayton. That would make her the mother of intimidating judge Dick Clayton, so hopefully her appearance will explain a thing or two about her son’s sour disposition.

But, of course, Worst Week is mostly about bumbling Sam. That’s why the plot centers around him losing the invaluable wedding rings that belonged to June’s own grandparents when she gives them to him and Melanie for their upcoming marriage. I wonder if Sam will find the jewelry before the judge rips him a new one with his steely glare alone. Hmmm…

Although “The Ring” is currently unscheduled, it will likely air this fall.
