When last we left my Eddie McClintock interview, fans were left hanging as to whether the show would return for a fifth season. UPDATE: Deadline is reporting that “Warehouse 13″ has been renewed for a six-episode final season that won’t air until 2014. Sigh. (Quick rant: I guess I could never be a programming executive … Continue Reading →
I’d heard through the entertainment writer grapevine that “Warehouse 13″ star Eddie McClintock is a great interview — charming, gregarious, funny and open. He was definitely all those things during my interview ahead of his appearance at Motor City Comic Con this weekend, where he’ll be appearing with co-star Aaron Ashmore. He went above and … Continue Reading →
Oh, “Warehouse 13,” how I’ve missed you. Teasing us by filming extra episodes for season four and then putting a huge gap in the middle is just cruel, Syfy. But that’s been your M.O. for years, so it’s not totally unexpected. But at last the long wait is over with tonight’s half-season premiere, and it’s … Continue Reading →
In the latest bit of cross-platform synergy (ooh, how’s that for buzzwords?), Syfy will debut the new series “Defiance” tonight. A couple weeks ago, “Defiance” the video game went on sale. It’s an MMO, and events in one will affect the other, or so they say. I didn’t get a preview copy of the game, … Continue Reading →
Between filming there and importing shows from there, Canada seems the place to be these days for sci-fi television. First, Syfy brought over the camptastic “Lost Girl.” This year, they snagged “Continuum,” which has its season finale on the network tonight and will be released on DVD and Blu-ray March 26. It has been renewed … Continue Reading →
With all the Youtube postings and an airing on Syfy, I feel a bit behind writing up this review of the prequel movie “Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome,” but the DVD/Blu-ray is out this week, and it’s the first time I had the chance to watch. Actually, I probably could have watched on Youtube, but … Continue Reading →
I’m a sucker for ghost-hunting shows, so when I got my screener for “Ghost Mine,” I had to watch it despite what I thought could be another run-of-the-mill entry in the genre. It premieres at 10 tonight on Syfy after the mid-season premiere of “Ghost Hunters.” And while it certainly doesn’t take paranormal investigation to … Continue Reading →
This is a big premiere month for Syfy. We had “Merlin” on Jan. 4, and this week has a bunch more, including the season premiere of “Face-Off” on Tuesday and the series premiere of “Ghost Mine” paired with the winter season premiere of “Ghost Hunters” (I miss Grant). Tonight has three premieres: new “Continuum” and … Continue Reading →
As you read yesterday, the fifth and final season of “Merlin” starts at 10 tonight on Syfy. So to celebrate, I’m giving away DVD and Blu-ray copies (one of each) of the fourth season, which comes out Jan. 15 from BBC Home Entertainment. Here’s the BBC’s description: Arthurian legend takes shape in the fourth season … Continue Reading →
As Dear Abby might say: Happy new year, dear readers! And I can think of few ways to better start off another year of being a geek than watching the return of “Merlin” on Syfy at 10 p.m. Friday. Die-hard fans have probably already used the Internet to watch the fifth series (aka season, for … Continue Reading →
