I’m finally getting around to checking out Space: 1999, the British cult sci-fi series from the 1970s that happens to star two Americans. Martin Landau and his former real-world wife Barbara Bain are the Yankee leads in this retro space epic. They work on Moon Base Alpha in the year 1999. (Funny how the folks [...]
A nice blog entry covers them here. Three to six minutes still seems short to me with current bandwidth capabilities, but let’s not get carried away – the whole point of this is to keep the episodes cheap. Let’s not give Sciffy a reason to drop the show due to “costs” again.
Derren Brown: You seem like a nice bloke and I’m glad you have your own TV show. But why on earth are you on the SciFi Channel?
I just watched the first 10 minutes of Mind Control With Derren Brown. In that time, he’s made people at a mall put their arms up into the air [...]
A sci-fi fan has put up a survey that will be forwarded to SciFi weekly. If you’d like to chime in, the survey is here:

Sci Fi Wire recently announced that Farscape is coming back – but on the web only in the form of new webisodes! As a long-time Farscape fan, I don’t even know what to think!

I got a notice on MySpace that Doctor Who was going to be canceled after series four because Executive Producer Russell T. Davies wants to focus on other projects! Excuse me? Look, we’ve got a good cast and production crew, who the hell needs some producer just to keep a show on the air? While [...]
The SciFi Channel – run by apparently clueless executives whose last personal interaction with a real sci-fi fan was probably the nerdy kid sitting next to them in chemistry class in high school – seems to be about to shoot itself in the foot once again with a pending cancellation of The Dresden Files.
I say [...]
First we had Rose Tyler. Then we had Martha Jones. And now – just as U.S. audiences are being introduced to Martha – we’re told that the Runaway Bride, Donna, will be the next companion for series four. Martha will be returning mid-season as well.
I actually just caught the U.S. premiere of series three [...]
Paul Blackthorne plays Harry Dresden on The Dresden Files, and I had a chance to speak to him about the show and a few other things.
The Dresden Files apparently has the highest female viewership of any sci-fi show on the air. Judging from the frenzy Paul elicits on the SciFi Channel bulletin boards, Paul’s [...]
