Michael Trucco Interview: Part Two
January 30, 2010 by Cynthia
Yesterday, we spent ten minutes with Meteor Storm’s Michael Trucco and today we have ten minutes more!
Cynthia: Let’s talk about some of your other roles. You are in my absolute favorite Big Bang Theory episode, “The Bath Item Gift Hypothesis.”
Michael: It is probably one of their best episodes of the series, having absolutely nothing to do with me. I just coincidently fell into one of the greatest episodes that they’ve made. It had everything to do with Jim Parsons, and that’s really where he captured the nation’s attention. There’s something about that episode and his performance that’s like ‘oh my …read more
Michael Trucco Talks Battlestar, Big Bang and One Huge Meteor Storm
January 29, 2010 by Cynthia
Sometimes people recognize him as Samuel Anders from Battlestar Galactica. Other people know him as Cooper Lee from One Tree Hill and if you’re a Big Bang Theory fan, you’ll remember him as the brainy but hunky Dr. Underhill in the infamous Christmas episode. But with more than 40 different roles to his credit, Michael Trucco says most people recognize him as Michael Trucco and that’s a nice place for any actor to be.
This weekend, Michael runs headlong into danger as the star of Syfy’s original movie Meteor Storm. Having survived the rain of fire from the sky, he and …read more

Spirits, Begone! I’m Talking with the Ghost Lab Guys
November 10, 2009 by Cynthia
This morning, I finally got my interview with the guys of Discovery Channel’s new paranormal series Ghost Lab and something very strange happened. I do all of my interviews through Skype with the Pamela add-on to record the call. I’ve been doing this for a couple of years now and have logged nearly 100 perfect recordings. Today, the software did what it was supposed to. The counter clicked off the time, the bars hopped up and down showing a voice signal but when I went to transcribe the interview I found only my voice and not theirs. A half hour …read more

The Legend of the Seeker returns tomorrow for the start of a second season, so I sat down with the show’s star, Craig Horner, to talk about the great guest stars, his affinity for sword play and what’s in store for fans of this fantasy / action series.
Let’s not waste any time here, Craig. Tell us what we can look forward to in this new season.

Tapping and Dunne Talk Sanctuary Season 2
October 14, 2009 by Cynthia
Earlier this month, Sanctuary stars Amanda Tapping and Robin Dunne sat down with reporters for an extensive interview. There was an easy banter between the both of them; humorous and self-deprecating. From the sound of it, they have a great working relationship that will only grow stronger (both on screen and off) as the second season of Sanctuary takes hold.
On the New Season:
Amanda Tapping: I think because it’s our second season you’re going to see a lot of changes in terms of the interpersonal relationships. I think Season 1 was very much about introducing everybody – introducing the Sanctuary …read more
Leonard Nimoy Talks About Carving Out His Newest Niche
Yesterday, the marvelous Mr. Leonard Nimoy spent part of his afternoon with a group of reporters to talk about his role in tonight’s episode of Fringe. But since he couldn’t reveal too many details about the mysterious William Bell, we got him to talk about other things like the state of science fiction on TV, the difference in TV production from Star Trek to now and his love of photography.
As someone who’s watched Star Trek most of her life, it was a real thrill to talk with an actor whose voice carries so many memories. He was warm and thoughtful …read more
Joss Whedon Unlocks the Dollhouse
September 21, 2009 by Cynthia
Dollhouse is once again open for business and creator Joss Whedon sat down with reporters to talk about lives, the loves, and the cool guest stars coming up in the new season. Dollhouse returns to Fox on September 25 at 9:00.
Dollhouse was pretty close to not getting that second season pick-up. Why do you think Fox changed their minds?
Joss: I think it’s the nature of the business and the nature of the fan base. The nature of the fan base is they’re in it for the long haul, and they’re nurturing, and they’re intense about it and they will see …read more
