Well its almost been a year since I dropped television. Well television in the normal sense that is. No cable, no satallite and I rely most on Netflix, hulu and The WB online. And forget television the old fashioned way since I still only get Telemundo and some random religion channel.
Lately I have been hanging out up in some mountain resorts and condos over the weekend, just relaxing, shedding the stress and listening to some great music at Deer Valley with the Utah Symphony. And when the lights would go down and I snuggled into bed I would flip on the good ole tele which was everpresent in every room.

It’s no surprise that the geeks of the world name their pets geeky names. That is, after all, one of the biggest reasons of getting a pet, besides, you know, companionship, stress relief, love of fluffy things.
I could blame my family. Maybe I have a chip on my shoulder cause my mom let my sister name me after her friend’s dog (I don’t, I think it’s awesome, so whatever a reverse chip on the should is).
We named our Cocker Spaniel Lady. My brother had a cockatiel named Gumby. I had hamsters named Buffy and Xander. And then there was my rat named after an actress ..read more
My buddy Verona and I have recently bonded via facebook messages by sending bits of the X-Men Animated Series theme back and forth to each other. These messages mostly consist of me going
do do do dooooo do do
and her replying
do do do dooooo de do
and then, when we are feeling especially epic
dododo dododo dododo do do deeee dooooooooo
So, here is my random summer list of favorite bouncing up n down in your seat get ready for the awesome tv themes.
1 – X-Men Theme
There’s just so much awesome here. Cause there’s all the good guys, and ooo they’re powerful, but then there are bad guys too and they’re ALSO powerful and ..read more
With space based sci-fi shows all but dead, and the science fiction genre itself hurting, our mood has been melancholy at best.
But there’s hope in the form of new shows coming down SyFy’s pike. It’s no secret that SyFy has been hunting for a new space opera since “Galactica” was on the wane — but it looks like we’re getting double for our patience. Both seem to crib liberally from “Firefly,” our favorite success story, but it’s yet to be seen whether the shows will capture the same magic.
“Orion”
From SyFy’s press release: National Treasure meets Firefly in this swashbuckling space opera about an adventurous female relic hunter and ..read more
The fine folks over at SciFinal have put out a new trailer compiling some of the (over 100) shows they have on their site. I think I officially am watching more internet shows than tv shows, and since it’s the dog days of summer I recommend you go check out their cool ..read more
I am going to admit something. I am going to ask that you refrain from throwing things at me. And no I will not turn in my Geek Card at the door…
I am not all that huge of a Star Trek fan.
It is probably the Star Wars fan in me. Too much of an internal struggle to make the two worlds live together peacefully in my brain. But it might also have to do with the three Star Trek Club meetings I went to in 7th grade and all they did was bitch back and forth across the room about whether The Original Series or The Next Generation was better.

Eddie McClintock is the star of SyFy’s guerrilla hit “Warehouse 13.” He’s also a great visual artist and quite possibly one of the most down-to-earth guys that I’ve met — celebrity or not. I spent some time talking with Eddie on Thursday to advance the show’s second season (which begins July 6 on SyFy).
The background:
It began with an insult.
On June 7, I watched the pilot episode of Warehouse 13, and fired off a hasty verdict via Twitter. “Warehouse 13 seems fun, even if Eddie McClintock seems like a poor man’s Ben Browder.”
It was a brief blip in the sea of babbling, opinions and accusations that is Twitter. But Eddie McClintock caught ..read more
Oh Veronica Mars what a supernova you were. Here one year and gone the next.
I am sure you all know how much I lament the loss of Firefly after a short one season. But not too far below Firefly sits that sassy, sparkplug of a teenage detective Veronica Mars.
Granted the final third season was a bit stilted as it tried to keep ahead of the cancellation axe, but those first two season were dark, engaging and full of twists and turns we never saw coming.
Every once in a while I tend to rewatch television. Some good, some bad, some I don’t want anyone to know I actually watch. I have ..read more
Here is a run down on the upcoming summer premiers we have be fortunate enough to get our hands on.
If you have not heard Eureka and Warehouse 13 are on their way back for another season. Merlin just wound down and a newcomer to the station Haven is starting up. Things are looking on the up and up.
And with premiers comes lots of video teasers for you to enjoy. Here you go my friends. You needed something to do this weekend anyways right?
Warehouse 13
Season two features special crossover episodes when Warehouse 13’s Allison Scagliotti visits the town of Eureka and Neil Grayston of Eureka visits Warehouse 13. The programs will ..read more
HBO first aired a very brief, atmospheric teaser featuring Sean Bean during the True Blood premiere, but you can check it out, as well as a few introductory features of the show, here.
I’m a little nervous it’s only going be be ten episodes (what’s been ordered thus far). I know HBO kinda makes their own season sizes, but if I only get ten episodes and it cancels or some such. Well, I’ll be sad.
There’s also this fan made video that streams pictures from all the main cast members (stock pictures of actors in other roles, or their 8×10’s, ect, not from Game of Thrones) to get your imagination ..read more
