Spent the last 30 years telling the stories of people, places and things I thought other people would find interesting. Rediscovered my nerd/geek karma late in life and get to write about that as well. Oh, also spent three decades as a high school/college coach (track, cross country and hoops). A passionate comic con enthusiast, sci-fi lover and enjoy alien invasion shows on the big screen and small.
Did you know that actor Jake Stormoen is a dyed-in-the-wool geek? You know, a nerd. And thank Gandalf’s staff for that. Stormoen has successfully turned a passion for fantasy adventure into not only an acting career, but a wonderfully engaging hero. He is currently crushing the role of Captain Garret Spears on The CW’s second-year […]
There’s a passion in the voice of actor Anand Desai-Barochia that’s hard to miss – passion for the craft, passion for the profession and passion for the character he is currently playing in the second season of The CW’s “The Outpost.” Desai-Barochia plays Janzo, a barkeep/brewer/science nerd that has seen plenty of growth over the […]
At long last, Team Awesome Force is back, along with a plethora of our favorites in the Killjoys realm, are back. The return of Killjoys for its fifth and final season began with an episode titled “Run Yala, Run,” and by the end that’s just what’s on the menu for our heroine. But the return […]
Two episodes into its second season and it feels as though “The Outpost” has really found a formula that works nicely – without being formulaic. If you know what I mean. New faces show up with interesting propositions, potential allies may be stirring, and the sadness of Garret’s apparent death permeate throughout the episode. Still, […]
There was plenty of anticipation about a second season of The CW’s “The Outpost” after a surprisingly strong first season and the very real recognition (at least through social media) that this show had struck a wondrous nerve amongst a host of rabid fans – me included. So be aware, if you haven’t seen this […]
Well, here we are, folks. The final season of Killjoys is about to break upon the shore of a our fandom like a wave. Are we ready for it to start? And are we ready for it to come to a finish? Forgive the questions as judging by the fandom’s reaction on social media, I […]
At long last we have not only a date, but some trailer action for the fifth and final season of Killjoys. It turns out, the wait won’t be that long as season 5 of Killjoys returns to SYFY on July 19. Let the rejoicing begin, my friends. When last we saw Dutch, D’Avin, Johnny and […]
I had made some assumptions leading up to the season finale of season 2 of Knightfall, “While I Breath, I Trust the Cross.” Some of them fairly obvious, others more involved, but I’m delighted to say that while I was on-point with some, the writers, actors, show runner and rest of the crew delivered a […]
I’ll be up front and honest, I did not see episode 206 of Knightfall unfolding as it did. I knew there’d be a siege, complete with yelling, screaming, and the clash of battle, but I never for an instant thought it would end with King Philip standing over Landry with a blade to his throat. […]
Well, Landry has been a busy Templar since getting re-instated to the order, hasn’t he? Last week he got to cross swords (flaming even) with Gawain and this week he throws down with Prince Louis. All he needs now is a good donnybrook with King Philip and he’ll have met and survived (we suppose) the […]
