Piper Perabo Injured on 'Covert Affairs' Set

by Chris Harnick, posted Aug 20th 2010 11:20AM

Piper Perabo 'Covert Affairs' star Piper Perabo was reportedly injured on the show's Toronto set.

According to TMZ, Perabo injured her knee, but is receiving treatment and expected to make a full recovery. Perabo told TV Squad she does the majority of her own stunts, but not in the proper footwear.

"I did a scene where I rappel down an elevator shaft with this really hot guy, in Louboutins, and I was like, 'This is my favorite job ever!'" Perabo said during our set visit. "It's so hard to do in a pair of Louboutins, but so worth it."

Hopefully she's being comforted by the fact that the series has been renewed for a second season and reached a new ratings high of 5.4 million viewers.

News of Perabo's injury echoes that of Scott Caan on the set of his new CBS series 'Hawaii Five-0.' Caan's knee injury will be written into the series.

No word on whether Perabo's injury will require an on-screen mention.

Louboutins are very high heeled shoes.

Remember when Jennifer Garner did Alias? Then she left to do movies because she was too good for TV. And, I don't mean that sarcastically...she was too good for TV. I see the same thing happening for Piper Perabo in the near future. She is too good for TV. She will leave it to do movies. Just like Garner did.

Great new show. A new extremely refreshing Actress too. I dig the Blind guy too. Very subtle macho.

Glad she didn't get hurt too badly.
This is one of my favorite new shows. I watched initially because the teasers seemed like it might be good. Sometimes teasers aren't what the show's reality is. In this case I was not disappointed.
