She might not beat the sheer kitschy genre awesomeness of Nichelle Nichols, but Veronica Mars fans may be happy to hear that Kristen Bell will be joining Heroes for a “key multiepisode arc” next season.
More Gatey Goodness!
Joe Mallozzi continues to share the love with the Stargate fans by posting pictures from filming of the latest Stargate Atlantis episode in production. And there are shots of a certain guest star rehearsing who will look just a wee bit familiar to SG1 fans. (Yeah, baybee!) And another guest star who has been requested by many of the SGA fans. (Another “yeah, baybee” from me!)
Needless to say, since this is filming for Season 4, this means that you could be a wee bit spoiled for Season 4. So don’t get whiny about it!
In semi-related news, SciFi posts a short interview with SG1 actorMichael Shanks in which he describes what is sure to be the “riveting” storyline for his upcoming SciFi Saturday movie MegaSnake.
Gee. You think this movie will have snakes in it?
Marsters’ new gig
James Marsters is moving up in the TV world – he’ll have a recurring part as a detective on Without a Trace this season. (Thanks, Eliz!)
SciFi Fall Lineup Announced
Time to program those TiVo’s. SciFi has put their fall line-up out for the world to see.
Stargate Atlantis will be premiering on September 28th in the Friday, 10pm timeslot. Per GateWorld, they’re actually planning to (shocker) run the season all the way through. (Dare to dream that there won’t be a six-month, ratings-plummeting break between halves!)
Battlestar Galactica geeks can take some solace that although Razor won’t premiere until November 24th, “mini-sodes” will be airing during Flash Gordon. (Hey. They have to try and salvage that show somehow!)
Trek is Full of Heroes
Heroes fans were fairly universal in their love of George Takei‘s performance during the first season as Hiro‘s father.
Now comes word that, in addition to Dominic Keating, Nichelle Nichols (Uhura) will be yet another Star Trek alum joining the cast of Heroes in Season 2.
Will revamped Flash make us “Ahh?”
So, Sci-Fi’s new Flash Gordon is getting crappy reviews, surprising absolutely no one. Judge it for yourself tonight.
Is it time for the new season yet?
Amanda Tapping (aka Samantha Carter) talks SG1 movies.
YahooTV posts the Stargate promo shown at Comic-Con. Looks fantastic! (via)
TV Goodness
A few, small TV tidbits to share:
– SciFi has finally announced what everyone else seems to have known for a while now: Paul McGillion is back on Stargate Atlantis.
– Kristen Bell is rumored to be heading on over to Lost
– Can Heroes live up to expectations in Season 2?
– Ron Moore decides to stay on with NBC Universal a little longer, but not so much with the sci-fi.
– Flash Gordon not only shows promise, but already gets a DVD. We’ll have to see. I’m kinda fond of that 80’s cheesy version.
Milo down with the Boy Wonder
Heroes star Milo Ventimiglia would like to play Robin. Well, that’s certainly different.
