TV Review: Haven – Pilot

The SyFy Channel’s new show “Haven” is essentially “The X-Files” if that show was set in one location and Fox Mulder was a spunky blonde, and instead of a doubting Dana Scully you have a doubting Detective who can’t feel pain.

Being Human Season 2 Extended Trailer

BBC America has released an extended trailer for the second season of their “Three’s Company with Monsters” show “Being Human”. The second season kicks off its premiere episode on Saturday, July 24th, immediately following the “Doctor Who” season finale, so tune in or, you know, get eaten.

DVD Review: Sanctuary Complete Seasons 1 and 2

SyFy Channel’s “Sanctuary” is an enjoyable show best described as “Hellboy” meets “Fringe” or “The X-Files” or even SyFy’s own “Warehouse 13.”

Comic Con Info and New Images for TNT’s Falling Skies Alien Invasion Show

Check out a new batch of images from TNT’s upcoming alien invasion TV show “Falling Skies” (formerly “Fallen Skies”, according to a new press release announcing the show’s Comic Con appearance). For a show with Noah Wyle in the lead and Steven Spielberg producing, it’s surprising that “Skies” hasn’t really gotten all that much press. That might change when the show makes its Comic Con debut, though.

Warehouse 13 Season 2 Preview Videos

The SyFy Channel is gearing up for its Season 2 of “Warehouse 13″ next week, so here are some videos making the promo rounds.

Stargate Universe Season 2 Will be Tougher, Darker, More Depressing

As if being forced to sit through a single episode’s worth of storyline stretched out unmercifully into three draaaaaaaaaagging episodes, as well as a season ending cliffhanger wasn’t “tough”, “dark”, and “depressing” enough, the “Stargate: Universe” producers are promising even harder times for our stranded heroes in the show’s upcoming Season 2.

Warehouse 13 Season 2 Premieres Next Week, First Two Episode Promo Images

Whoa, is it premiere time for the SyFy Channel again? Yup. While all the other networks are running first-time Summer shows, many of which have no chance whatsoever of coming back for a second season, the cable networks are rolling out their original programmings for return engagements.

Doctor Who 5.10 Vincent and the Doctor Recap

We last left The Doctor in a pretty dark place. Rory had just died a senseless death near one of the cracks in the universe, and the cascading time energy erased him from existence. Even worse when The Doctor retrieved a piece of debris from inside the rift–only to discover an exploded piece of his TARDIS. So after those shocking events, it’s nice to have the show settle down and offer us some human drama before leaping back into cataclysmic events.

Doctor Who: Shada (1992) Movie Review

“Shada” has always had a dear place in the hearts of “Doctor Who” fans, especially the old timers who still think eight foot long scarves are still haute couture fashion. The episode in question was written by Douglas Adams himself, years before he gained fame by writing his infamous guide on how to see the galaxy and sold a zillion copies in the process .

Stargate Universe 1.5 DVD and Blu-Ray Cover Art and Specs

The latest hit series from the creators of “Stargate SG-1” makes a date with destiny when “SGU 1.5” debuts on Blu-ray Disc and DVD July 27 from MGM Home Entertainment.

Ghost Hunters Renewed for 7th Season

I’ve been watching the SyFy Channel’s “Ghost Hunters” TV show on and off for the last six years or so, and honestly, I can’t tell you with any certainty if they’ve ever caught evidence of an actual, honest-to-goodness ghost. A lot of stuff seems to happen in almost every episode, but eh, I’ve always considered it more entertainment than actual “reality”.

Stargate Universe Episode Recap 1.20: Incursion Part 2

Well it’s the end. The first season of StarGate Universe is over. Drama just isn’t interesting unless the people you’re watching experience change. Space is stressful. Did the castaways evolve as human beings over the season? Did the year of dark corridors, invading aliens, bad food and grouchy Scotsmen culminate in a wicked finale or did it all just fizzle?

Fans of Cancelled FlashForward Stage Worldwide Mass Blackout
