Being Human preview: “What’s Blood Got to Do With It?” plus clips

by on Feb.15, 2013, under Television

We got our customary Friday email from our favorite vampire…

The house is getting a little crowded lately. As tired as it makes me, I was glad to have that nightshift to keep me occupied. Although, after last week, I don’t know how I can go back and face Kenny. Maybe this job wasn’t such a good idea after all… You can catch a gallery of the episode here.

It seems like Sally may be getting herself into a little trouble this week when she runs into her brother. I hope she can find a way to spare him from Trent’s fate.

You know the drill – below is a sneak peek, a couple clips from last week, & a couple of cool interviews with Sally, Josh & Nora.

See You,

A

Don’t forget to watch next Monday at 9/8c on Syfy!

The Ice Warriors will return to Doctor Who, while an original companion makes a cameo

by on Feb.11, 2013, under Television

It’s official – we will see the Ice Warriors when Doctor Who returns!

It has been rumored for a bit that the Ice Warriors – the green reptilian humanoids from Mars – will return in the second half of Series 7 this Spring, as they are currently the creatures from the classic series with the most appearances that haven’t been shown in the revival. Executive producer Caro Skinner confirmed the appearance, and they will be in an as-yet-untitled Mark Gatiss-penned episode which involves the Doctor being stuck on a submarine with them. It will be interesting to see what kind of modern makeover they will get, as the originals looked like giant-sized action figures.

Speaking of Mark Gatiss, there has been an interesting bit of casting news regarding his docudrama about the making of Doctor Who, An Adventure in Space and Time. William Russell, who played Ian Chesterton and was one of the first companions to the Doctor, appearing in the very first episode, will make a cameo appearance in the docudrama as someone named Harry. Russell himself is being portrayed by Jamie Glover (Waterloo Road). It was Russell as Ian who uttered the now famous words, “A thing that looks like a Police Box, standing in a junkyard, it can move anywhere through time and space?”

Under The Dome to stream on Amazon 4 days after CBS broadcast

by on Feb.11, 2013, under Online Video, Television

Amazon struck a deal with CBS to allow online streaming of the upcoming summer series Under The Dome, from Steven Spielberg and Stephen King, just 4 days after the initial airing on CBS. Amazon Prime members exclusively will be able to stream the show an unlimited number of times.

Why four days? Because currently networks sell commercial slots to advertisers based on the “C3” rating – which counts the number of viewers who watch the commercials played during the broadcast, both live and time-shifted up to three days. After the third day it doesn’t matter much to the network, so this is likely the soonest you’ll see digital distribution done by anyone other than the broadcast network for a show.

The Walking Dead returns to record ratings

by on Feb.11, 2013, under Television

If you watched The Walking Dead return from it’s mid-season break, you definitely weren’t alone…12.3 million viewers watched the initial airing, with 7.7 million in the Adults 18-49 group – a record for a basic cable series, and despite the fact that it was up against the Grammy Awards.

Counting the three encores, a total of 16.6 million watched it – and that still doesn’t include DVR viewers over the next several days.

There are 7 more episodes remaining in the third season. The fourth season is expected to begin production in October.
