November 10th, 2010 | Posted in TV

I only recently started exploring in depth the world of Stargate, and while I will not say that it has captured my heart the way that the desert planet Arrakis did, or the moons of Endor do, it has a special place in my life. When I want a rip roaring good time with lots […]

The Walking Dead on AMC

When a television show begins its premiere episode with a cop shooting a zombie girl, exploding her head, the viewer has no doubt about where the show is going.  As I watched the first episode, I was giddy, finally a television series that was respectful of its source material. The overnights are calling it the […]

Yes, because (especially if you’re FOX) you demand […]

The British website, SFX has some pretty amazing info for the inner geek. Perhaps one of the most original and funny features is something called Scriptease, in which a TV show’s entire season or a complete run is eviscerated into bite sized gems of hilarity.

The Two Words I have Always Longed to Say:

October 4th, 2010 | Posted in Daily Rants, Movies, TV

Cassandra Peterson God, I love her. She is iconic and more than a … passing fantasy. When the crew toured Spooky World last week, all kept hearing in my minds eyes was her saucy voice, whispering things to me. I miss you Elvira. I miss your haunted hills, I miss your sly comments. And now, […]

October 1st, 2010 | Posted in Daily Rants, TV

If there was ever a show that defines geekdom, it is The Big Bang Theory. From the quiet OCD certitude of Sheldon Cooper to the sexual dynamo of Penny, this show, now going into season four, is one of the most endearing and genuinely funny shows on network TV. Last season evil Wil Wheaton made […]

To Boldly Die…………

September 16th, 2010 | Posted in Daily Rants, TV, Websites

Geekdom knows no boundaries. Yes, I have a Bajoran earring, a Harley Quinn Barbie Doll and the entire series of Models, Inc. the comic. As I said, geekdom knows no boundaries, but I do believe I have reached mine with this. Eternal Image offers the Trek geek the empowerment of being buried in a Trek […]
