NBC Cancels “Enemy” (I’m not so happy with them anymore)

Breaking: NBC Axes ‘Lipstick,’ ‘Enemy’ | | Ausiello Files | EW.com Breaking News – NBC Pulls the Plug on “Enemy,” “Jungle” | TheFutonCritic.com I have to say, this kind of sucks. I was really enjoying My Own Worst Enemy, so I wish that NBC didn’t just cancel it. I mean for goodness sake, they picked…

Pop Culture comments: Bond, Bauer, and Archuleta(?)

OK. It’s coming up on almost a month that I haven’t posted. What gives? Well, for one thing, I haven’t really been out to the movies. Most of the candidates for my Saturday excursions to the cinema have gotten such mediocre/mixed reviews that I ended up staying home to catch up on the small screen….

Fall TV 2008, part 4

Here I was thinking that this fall premiere season was going to be boring simply because all my top shows (Lost, 24, Battlestar Galactica, Medium, Dollhouse, Burn Notice) were not coming until mid-season, but now I’m writing a 4-part post about new and returning shows. Go figure! Well, this will be the last part. There…

Photos from new Star Trek film are too cool!

I admit I am not a fan of the original series, so when they were going to reboot it with original characters intact, I held on to my doubts — even though it was JJ Abrams in charge. But after seeing these photos of the revamped crew and bridge, I am really excited about it….

Revisiting the Vistors: V is coming Back!

I am so excited about this news: The Visitors are coming back to TV! With the slew of 80s revamps over the past few years (BSG, Bionic Woman, Knight Rider), I had a sneaking suspicion that this was coming, but now that it’s been announced, I am extremely psyched (Check out Slice of SciFi for…

Fall TV 2008 (part 3)

It seems like there are a lot of shows to watch this season. Update: Stopped watching 90210 and Knight Rider already; was watching Do Not Disturb (Jerry O’Connell’s hotel-based sitcom) but that’s been cancelled; Privileged and Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles are on the bubble. But, True Blood is getting better, and so is Fringe….

Fall TV 2008 (part 2)

Sorry for snoozing a bit while the new fall TV season barrels on. There are quite a number of new and returning shows to recap, so I’ll get right to it: ﾠ Smallville – The usual brand of stuff. Frankly, I have no clue where this show is going or has been for the last…

Fall TV 2008 (part 1)

Maybe it’s more after-effects of last season’s writers’ strike, or some other studio strategy (you never know with them) but this fall’s premiere season seems more spread out. Plus, many of my favourite new and returning shows won’t be appearing until 2009 (including Medium, Lost, Battlestar Galactica, 24 and new show Dollhouse). Nevertheless, there’s still…

Am I too old for Fan Expo 2008?

It wasn’t seriously a question that I wondered about, but when I attended the annual sci-fi/horror/anime/comic book convention now known as Fan Expo this year (at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre), I definitely felt my age. Not only was I surrounded by numerous anime kids, dressed to the nines as their favourite characters (virtually none…
