Trailers for Orphan Black, season 2
They are keeping the Orphan Black cards pretty close to the chest with these teasers. They fall into the “is that all there is” category. This one tells us even less.

Helix: Coming to SyFy in January
SyFy is a favorite channel. I’ve loved Eureka, Warehouse 13, Defiance, Continuum, and Lost Girl. I even watch Haven sometimes, although it isn’t nearly as good as the other shows I mentioned.

We see Mellie in new ways, learn some important backstory, and Bellamy Young enjoys an opportunity to stretch beyond her usual boundaries. Quinn’s (Katie Lowes) story is important to the overall arc of […]

The last couple of weeks Lisa Kudrow has been on Scandal. She plays Congresswoman Josephine Marcus who wants to run for President. Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington) is helping with her image and her PR.

Sarah Lancashire in Rose and Maloney
I became a dedicated Sarah Lancashire devotee as I watched Last Tango in Halifax. Being an American who rarely gets to see British TV unless it’s broadcast on PBS, I had never heard of her before. It’s surprisingly difficult to learn anything about British actors in America. Europeans don’t have much interest in filling out […]
