Sci-Fi Storm

Here is another sneak peek at tonight’s Alphas episode, “Catch and Release”, which focuses on guest star Summer Glau. In the clip, Skylar (Glau) is startled as she catches a glimpse of a team infiltrating her lab. She swiftly pulls all that she’ll need to leave including a robotic flying insect. She packs her bags and heads out just before the team covered in all black and armed enter the building. One member of the team meets eye-to-eye with her right before the building explodes. Watch the clip and be sure to tune in to Syfy at 10/9c tonight.

The Sci-Fi Storm time tunnel brought me back something from the near future – next Monday’s episode of Alphas, “Catch and Release”, with special guest star Summer Glau…no, I can’t let you watch it – blah, blah, causality violations, blah, blah, temporal police…but I can tell you a bit about it, hopefully at least major spoiler-free.

Summer Glau guest stars in Alphas: "Catch and Release"

It’s another “Powerful Mondays” lineup next Monday, with all new episodes of Eureka, Warehouse 13 and Alphas. And don’t forget – Summer Glau guest stars on Alphas!

This week in Eureka, Holly and Fargo appear to be on the surface of another planet. They try to keep things humorous while getting the job done, but their mission backfires and they become engulfed in smoke. Holly’s suit rapidly loses pressure and Fargo tells her she simply needs to recalculate. Be sure to watch the clip and tune in at 8/7c to see if Holly can find a way to save herself, or if someone else can step in.

This week in Eureka, Allison and Carter are discussing why Allison’s brain may be a little fuzzy as she claims days are starting to merge together. Carter is trying to reassure her that it’s ok to regroup and ease back into things, while also letting him take care of her. Be sure to watch the clip and tune in at 8/7c to see if Allison will allow Carter to cater to her, or if she’ll end up taking care of him.

It seems that Syfy has found a strong scripted Monday lineup…with the return of already strong shows Eureka and Warehouse 13 and the addition of Alphas resulted in their highest rated scripted Monday in 10 years – with Alphas scoring 2.5 million viewers, making it the most watched debut on the channel in 2 years.
