    Matt Smith Dr Who

    .... and in true Steve Moffat style, it was awesomely obscene too. :thumbsup: There's been a fair amount of controversy over the amped up (hetero)sexuality this season, from the suspiciously-shaped new Time Rotor right through to Amy trying to jump the Doctor's bones in the previous Moffat...

    Ashes to Ashes... The End.

    Superb stuff - almost perfection, in fact. If the Lost finale is half that good they'll be doing well ....:cool: A special shout-out to Dean Andrews, who really took his character to a whole new level this series. There's a transcript of long (and pretty comprehensive) interview with Matthew...

    Anyone still watching Lost?

    So, what did everyone think of (The Very Long Night of) Dr Linus? If Emerson doesn't pick up another support actor Emmy (or nomination, at least) on the strength of it I'll be seriously surprised .... :cool:

    Anyone still watching Lost?

    Very familiar indeed, with Jacob being shown to be just as ruthless when recruiting Dogen as the MiB has been with the candidates so far. Indeed, given the control Jacob/Ben have previously shown over Anthony Cooper and the ambiguous nature of Jacob's touching Sayid we can even start to wonder...

    lost starts in Feb.

    More than that, we get (almost) final confirmation of what we'd always suspected; Smokey doesn't just mimic the physical forms of the various corpses, he also seems to be able to assimilate their memories too, rather than just extrapolate them from reading the mind of the person being visited...

    Torchwood: Children of Earth (Spoilers)

    Here you go; 'Torchwood' takes American turn. I read that pretty much as you say. While it's always nice to see talented writers get work, Torchwood's unique blend of nihilism and camp seems about as unsuited to Network TV as anything I can think of. Nor, frankly, is the fact that the...

    Jeremiah season 2 available for pre order at Amazon.

    Interesting model .... I wonder what the deal is here with MGM? Presumably there aren't going to be any extras. :wtf:

    Terminator Judgment Day

    Roger Ebert's review of Salvation is amusing, at least :lol:

    LOST Casting Spoiler

    ^^ The galleon in Aguirre was just stuck in a tree at high tide, not marooned miles from any water .... ;) I'd agree about the allegiance of Widmore (and Daniels) being the biggest unknown here - especially as we've no evidence that "Esau" can directly manifest off-island. There's also the...

    Blake's 7 poised for comeback

    The same channel that bungled the Prisoner remake? I'll believe this when they actually start shooting it .... :rolleyes: Still, if they do it right it could end up as a worthy successor to Galactica, which will be all but done by the time that this sees the light of day. :)

    Changeling News

    Hooray! Salon's article does mention JMS, and even B5! :eek: Indy, Clint and Che hit the Côte d'Azur Given the film's subject matter (and the ignorance of mainstream critics where genre shows are concerned), how long will it be before we see him described as "former Murder She Wrote writer J...

    Jericho Season 2 (Spoilers)

    Given that I agreed with 90% of your comments (I'd file Lost under "annoyingly pretentious" rather than dumb) I can confidently predict you'll enjoy Jericho. It sags a bit in the middle of Season 1, but otherwise I'd say it's just as good as Jeremiah (the nearest show for comparison, although...

    Terminator: The S. Connor Chronicles

    Well, let's hope so - the trend in the Nielsens ain't looking too great so far. Alarmingly reminiscent of Firefly, in fact. :eek: Looking at this from a general SF fan perspective, it's troubling that they seem to be collapsing quicker than the quantum probability wavefunction in Deal or No...
