Amanda Tapping as Dr. Helen Magnus.

Just when you thought sci-fi legend Amanda Tapping couldn't get any cooler...for eleven years, she starred as Lt. Colonel Samantha Carter in Stargate SG-1.  Colonel Sam also appeared in twenty five episodes of Stargate...

I just saw a screening of The Road, and I have to say, I haven't been this affected by a film in a very long time.  Based on the best-selling book by Cormac McCarthy, The Road is the story of a man and his son (they are...

Misha Collins plays the angel Castiel on the hit show Supernatural.  And Castiel isn't your run of the mill, harps and flowing robes sort of angel.  Supernatural's higher beings kick some serious butt.  Castiel has dragged Dean (Jensen Ackles) out of hell, has no problem killing innocents for...

I love alien movies.  Really, it's the only genre that can still scare me.  I'm not saying that other spooky things don't give me pause or make me jump.  It's just that there is really no mystery left.  Sure, movies about serial killers make me triple check the lock on...

Stargate and Smallville fans alike went crazy when the news broke that Michael Shanks would be appearing as the beloved winged DC Comic Book character, Hawkman. Twitter has been abuzz with speculation about his appearance, and how the character would be handled. As a comic book and Stargate fan, I...

I just got a chance to chat with Nathan Fillion and Stana Katic, stars of the hit show Castle. And I have to say, if you're not watching it, you should be. Great chemistry, laugh-out-loud dialogue, and an awfully pretty cast. You've seen Katic on 24, Heroes and in the...

I normally write about film and television. And even then, I stay on the geekier side of things. But today I'm talking about my first love: theater. The subject is near and dear to my heart. I have a BFA in Musical Theater from Syracuse University, I met my husband...

The season premiere of The Big Bang Theory airs this Monday, and in honor of that comic event, I got a chance to chat with Simon Helberg, who plays nerdy engineer/clothes horse Howard Wolowitz. Not only is Helberg starring in one of the coolest shows on television (I'm a fan...I'll...

I just saw a screening of Quentin Tarantino's new film, Inglourious Basterds, Friday night. I'm not covering the film for my usual outlets, but after what I saw, I couldn't resist the urge to put my two cents in. I know this is a...

Science fiction/fantasy author Alan Dean Foster is known, not only for his prolific genre work, but for a stunning number of major motion picture novelizations, from Alien to Transformers to the newest version of Star Trek. Most recently, he's written the official movie novelization of Terminator: Salvation. I got a...

Bradley James plays Prince Arthur in the NBC show Merlin. Yes, I said "Prince". In this version, Arthur's father Uther (Anthony Head) is still alive. This British import is a very different take on the Arthur myth, with Merlin (Colin Morgan) and Arthur as...

It seems like Pixar just can't fail. Up is released May 29th and it's bound to be a hit. It rips your heart out, stomps on it, and then makes you laugh so hard your eyeliner will run. It easily grabbed a place in my top 10. The marketing department...

Nobody can deny that the new Star Trek film has silenced most of the critics. Fanboys (and girls) and newcomers alike have fallen in love with the re-imagining of Gene Roddenberry's beloved characters who "boldly go where no one has gone before"....

Emmy winner Michael Emerson plays the conniving Ben Linus on ABC's Lost, a character everyone loves to hate. The season finale airs Wednesday, May 13th and I got a chance to chat with Emerson about the show. He lets us in on his feelings about his character, making time for...

I got a chance to screen Seth Rogan's new film, Observe & Report in Santa Monica the other night and it's certainly not your average comedy. Written by Jody Hill, who also brought us Superbad and Eastbound & Down, it's an irreverent black comedy about a bi-polar mall cop. Check...

I just got to attend the midnight launch of the Nintendo DSi at Universal City Walk in Los Angeles on April 4-5 and I got all the info on the new system. For any of you non-gamers out there, the original DS is the hand-held video game system that your...

Kristin Kreuk has finished her run as Lana Lang on the CW's Smallville and is currently starring in the new film Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li. Based on the wildly popular video game series, Street Fighter is the origin story of one Chun-Li,...

Rocky Carroll has done it all. Comedy on the sitcom Roc, drama on Chicago Hope and lots of theater. He's currently playing NCIS Director Leon Vance on the CBS series NCIS. He talks about the difference between theater and Hollywood, working with his buddy Mark Harmon again and why NCIS...

Since the revelation that there were five additional cylons in the Battlestar Galactica universe, fans have been endlessly debating their identities. I should know since I've been watching from the beginning. We learned the identities of four of them, but the fifth has remained...
