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 that octopus in the aquarium seem to have a familiar voice? Perhaps captained a Firefly class ship somewhere in the ‘verse in a time down the road? Mmm, I got the strangest feeling I’d heard that voice before in something of an authority role. It was just one of a myriad of interesting bobs […]
Two episodes into Debris on NBC and I can sense there’s this understated tension running through the episodes. I don’t find this show dialog heavy, but heavy on uncertainty and a sense of confusion. It’s fun. Agents Finola Jones and Bryan Beneventi continue to step into an alien mess with each episode and I have […]
Turns out, Episode 106 of Resident Alien (titled Sexy Beast), wasn’t filled with the finest moments for our alien-turned-doctor Harry Vanderspiegle. His work towards understanding humanity while plotting its demise took several odd roads as the episode moved forward – and I’m hard-pressed to think of one of those roads that was a positive one. […]
There’s something falling from the skies, something very alien, very coveted and something that government organizations and private enterprises want to get their hands on. “Debris” brings together some of the best parts of shows like X-Files and Project Blue Book into a fun sci-fi creation. “Debris” delivers plenty of drama and questions as pieces […]
Have we reached a turning point in episode 105 (“Love Language”) of Resident Alien? On the verge of divorce, have Harry and his wife made amends (she thinks so)? In the midst of their battle for supremacy of Patience, Colorado, youngsters Max and Sahar negotiate a peace with the alien and then indulge in some […]
Well, I didn’t see that coming, did you? The final moments of episode 104 of “Resident Alien” were right out of the “that’s a twist” playbook. I suppose, upon further reflection, we knew so little about Harry Vanderspiegle that the thought he was married really didn’t pass into our consciousness much. And that little nugget […]
Three episodes into Resident Alien and Harry Vanderspiegle seems to be finding the navigation of the human experience, including a heinous crime of his own, quite the challenging exercise. Yes, the good people of Patience, Colorado are proving to be a little more challenging than Harry had been led to believe humans would be and […]
Hidden behind the falling off of chairs, toothpaste smeared across the face, and a wonderful non-verbal bit about eating a French fry, there was something else lurking under the surface of Episode 102 of ” Resident Alien.” It’s easy to see some of the physical humor that Alan Tudyk delivers and dismiss the show as […]
There are myriad “fish out of water” tropes running around in the land of TV and movies – some good, some not so good – but that interesting phenomenon has a fun little twist and smile-inducing vibe in the new SYFY Channel offering, “Resident Alien.” The show, set in a snowy little Colorado town with […]
It’s safe to say that the season 3A finale of The Outpost wasn’t one of the lightest and joy-filled finales I’ve ever seen. There was a darkness, a sadness that ran through this marvelous final episode that really pulled me in and fostered an even deeper appreciation for the guts this show likes to show. […]
