Season of the Were

Oh snap! New "True Blood" trailer for Season 3.



I suppose it's following the storyline of Club Dead, since the wolves are abound and Alcide pops up to protect Sookie.

Trailer spotted at Pajiba!

Break on Through to the Other Side: Fringe Finale preview

I like sci-fi, obvious if you know me or read any of this blog or my contributions to TelevisionRevival.com. I am an unapologetic fan when it comes to the genre, except for "Babylon 5", I draw the line there.

'Fringe' filled the hole in my heart left missing by the cancellation of almost every sci-fi show I would get hooked upon. I suppose Fox is making amends to me personally. I was a bit miffed with J.J. and company when the parallel universe story arc emerged. The cruel hand of fate was at work because it mirrored almost exactly my television treatment I worked so hard on during my M.A. last year. But all is forgiven cos the spring season has raised the bar! I cannot wait to see the "Fringe" alternate universe in depth. And from the looks of this promo for the finale, it's worth the wait.



Curses! It's a two-parter. Oh well, I've got "Justified" and other U.S. shows to catch up on in the interim.

Lafayette tells it like it is.

I don't know what happened but I've become completely enamored with the Sookie Stackhouse books after writing a paper on the "True Blood" tv show. I only half enjoyed the show and on a whim started reading the books. But once I got to book 2, I was hooked! It reminds me of the black comedy abundant in everyday Southern life, the rampant hypocrisy and superstition. Plus, it  has a touch of horror which I've always loved. Oh and reading about hot vamps is okay too.

As for the tv show, first season is a'ight. But second season is 10 times better, altho I could do with less orgies and bleeding heart casseroles. Thus, I'm all in for season three. But I think it's really because of Lafayette that kept my interest piqued. After watching the latest "True Blood" minisode, he's definitely the most enjoyable character (after that is the hot as hell Eric played by Alexander Skarsgard).

In this minisode, Tara gets downright nasty with Sookie, which is fun cos when isn't a verbal catfight not entertaining (see all ANTM cycles). But it's Lafayette coming in to tell them what's what (basically they're trippin'), a smile is brought to my face. On the downside, Anna Paquin, bless her heart, tries to do that southern accent thing but fails miserably. I frown every time I hear it before realizing there's nothing to be done.

Check out the mini-ep below and see for yourself.

"New Amsterdam" plea

Please let the tv show bubble report by TV Guide be wrong about "New Amsterdam". The show is getting better each episode and the main star, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, is H-O-T!



I agree with the rest of the predictions, but maybe Ausiello is right? New Amsterdam was pushed into a mid-season premiere, so it started out in the hot seat. Plus, this is Fox we're talking about... Hopefully the Hulu full episode traffic stats will convince Fox to give it another chance. Fingers crossed.

You're Frellin' Right

Another reason, amongst many, why I love Pajiba!



Thanks for making me feel okay to be a geek. "Farscape" is the best sci-fi show I’ve seen in the last 20 years hands down. "FireFly" and those Whedon worshippers can go suck it. Even Empire Magazine recognizes Farscape's greatness!

I do have to admit that "Farscape" was lucky to have the four seasons that it got. Nevertheless, I was devastated when it was cancelled. I even boycotted Battlestar Galactica (kinda still am) because it had a hand in Farscape’s cancellation. At least, SciFi softened the cancellation blow with a mini-series wrap up ("The Peacekeeper Wars").

And if you check the comments, looks like Ben Browder landed on his feet okay (despite Stargate SG1 also being cancelled) and is producing a new show for SciFi channel!
