Flanigan, Helfer Guest on Warehouse 13
May 28, 2009 by Cynthia
It’s going to be an all-star scifi summer on SCI FI Channel when some of your favorite stars pop up on the new dramedy adventure Warehouse 13.
Top of the list, Stargate Atlantis’ Joe Flanigan, Tricia Helfer from Battlestar Galactica, and one of my personal faves, James Naughton who starred in the Planet of the Apes TV series, but is more commonly known for his role on Gossip Girl.
Warehouse 13 is the story of two Secret Service agents who are assigned to guard a massive, top-secret storage facility in windswept South Dakota which houses every strange artifact, mysterious relic, fantastical object and supernatural souvenir ever collected by the U.S. government. The Warehouse’s caretaker Artie (Saul Rubinek) charges Pete (Eddie McClintock) and Myka (Joanna Kelly) with chasing down reports of supernatural and paranormal activity in search of new objects to cache at the Warehouse, as well as helping him to control the warehouse itself.
Guest Stars Include:
Brian Austin Green on CSI Miami Tonight
May 18, 2009 by Cynthia
Here’s a quickie for you Brian Austin Green fans. The Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles co-star is guesting on CSI: Miami tonight as an Alleged Carjacking Victim. Seriously, that’s what the official synopsis says.
Catch him tonight at 10:00 on on CBS.

Dollhouse Fans Wait For The Word
As we reel from the news about Sarah Connor, we’re trying to find out the fate of the other half of Sci Fi Fridays. FOX has opted not to air the episode Epitaph One, saying its order was for 12 episodes of Dollhouse.
FOX is counting the pilot ep that it scrapped as one of the 12 episodes.The much publicized decision not to air this episode is not a cancellation. There’s nothing official yet and that word is not expected to come until sometime in May.
Of course, it’s not the best sign ever. I can’t imagine FOX sitting on an episode of say, House or 24. Sadly, neither Dollhouse or The Sarah Connor Chronicles pulled the ratings a network would hope for. They both make big gains in DVR viewings, but most advertisers are not yet taking those numbers into account.

Dekker Dreams and a World Without Pizza
April 16, 2009 by Cynthia
Shock Til You Drop is reporting that Thomas Dekker is in final talks to join the Nightmare on Elm Street reboot. Dekker is best known for his role as John Connor on Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, and he would be one of a growing number of TV stars taking on classic horror remakes (can you say Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles?). Personally, I love Thomas but I’d have to pass as Elm Street is just too scary for me!
The only thing scarier than Freddy Krueger is a future without pizza!
Pizza Hut has teamed up with Terminator Salvation for a cool contest that could land you at the premiere. Other prizes include a life-sized Terminator T-600 model, Terminator Xbox® consoles and games Terminator collectibles.

Ausiello Says Sarah Connor Has Been Terminated
That’s the word EW columnist Michael Ausiello is getting from sources close to Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Though the official word is that, there is no official word, I’m betting Ausiello’s got the story. There isn’t much to it but you can read it here.
When you’re done weeping, head over to Save the Sarah Connor Chronicles website and get in on fight to save the show. What do you think? Send truckloads of wind-up robot toys to Fox and Warner Brothers? (I’m kind of partial to this one because he looks like a TV) Or perhaps we should send one of John Henry’s favorite toys.
Tonight on Sarah Connor: Born to Run
April 10, 2009 by Cynthia
Tonight is the season finale of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, it’s called “Born to Run.”
Last week was pretty much a game changer. Sarah was arrested after making contact with Ellison and. . . sob. . Derek was killed. Now John’s headed for a face-off with Catherine Weaver. Why do I have a sneaking suspicion that we’ll be coming away with more questions than answers? And what are the chances that we’ll get another season to continue this tale? Sigh. I don’t think I’m going to be a happy camper when all is said and done.
We’re watching, we’re watching, we’re not throwing things at the TV. . . .

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles: Adam Raised a Cain
Air Date: April 3, 2009 at 8:00 on FOX
When John attempts to rescue Skynet’s latest target he finds himself closing in on Weaver, but at what cost? Game plans change, causing Sarah and Ellison to reunite. Meanwhile, Weaver learns Ellison’s secrets in the “Adam Raised a Cain” (cr: Richard Foreman/FOX)
If you missed the Sarah Connor “April Fool’s Joke” that aired the other night I have the video after the cut, but honestly, hardly worth the effort. There’s not much “joke” in the joke and it goes on way too long. I’d call it more of an “Awkward Fool’s Joke.” (Especially since they obviously had to film these long before April Fool’s Day.)
Tonight: Fox Gets Foolish
In honor of April Fool’s Day, Fox is pulling a few pranks on the casts of their TV shows. An unexpected visit startles Eliza Dushku on the Dollhouse set, the cast of Terminator sits down for an interview they won’t forget and David Boreanez helps freak out his castmates on Bones.
Tune in to watch the fun all night long on FOX.
