SCI FI Channel is planning a summertime bash that you won’t want to miss. It all begins on Memorial Day with a Land of the Lost Marathon! “Marshall, Will and Holly, on a routine expedition. . ” sing along. . . you know you want to! Sure it’s tied to the big screen remake starring Will Ferrell, Anna Friel (Pushing Daisies) and Danny McBride but that doesn’t make me love Cha-ka any less

Next, on July 7, it’s the premiere of their new series Warehouse 13.

Two Secret Service agents find themselves abruptly transferred to 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 (Joanne 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. CCH Pounder guest-stars as Artie’s boss Mrs. Federic, along with Allison Scagliotti as Claudia Donovan, a young, hip, brilliant techno-wiz.

I was raised on Twilight Zone, so I’m quite excited about this development. Variety tells us the Postal Service is working on a series of stamps commemorating the golden age of television. The Early TV Memories series will launch August 11 in Los Angeles and includes stamps honoring I Love Lucy, classic game show You Bet Your Life, and yes, the Twilight Zone.

Variety said the stamps will begin at the current 42 cent price point but remember, there’s a postal price increase coming in May. With more and more companies offering ways to pay bills and complete other transactions online, the Postal Service is pushing the collector’s value of stamps heavily. I’m very stoked about Twilight Zone stamps and can’t wait to see what episodes and/or moments they decide to immortalize.
