Tricia Helfer talks CON MAN, conventions, and the double edged sword of playing an iconic sci-fi character

September 30, 2015 Amrie

Earlier this year, Alan Tudyk hinted at his latest collaboration with Nathan Fillion in a conversation we were having about his other work. That collaboration, CON MAN, is officially available through Vimeo as of today! To celebrate the release of his crowdfunded comedy web series, I got on the phone to chat with guest star Tricia Helfer about what to expect, Re-Born doll conventions, going unrecognizable on the street, and the double-edged sword that results from playing an iconic character

Don't forget BATTLESTAR GALACTICA tonight!

January 23, 2009 Amrie

Don’t forget to tune to tonight’s episode! Ronald D Moore directed the episode called “A Disquiet Follows My Soul” and I’m sure we’re in for another exciting, depressing, and headscratching hour of TV! Along with BSG, I’m checking out FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS, PSYCH, and MONK before sleeping! What about you?

After watching an already depressing mid-season premiere of one of the finest shows on television, none of the people that I thought were the 5th, turned out to be the 5th.

So here I am, battling 5 degree weather (my apologies to my pals in other places suffering from negative-degree weather – that’s just sick), and I am more excited than ever to go home after a long day at the office, pop some popcorn, and curl up on the couch to watch some of the best TV ever made. Why’s that? Because two of my favorite shows return tonight and I could not be happier! Up first, at 9, reappearing

December 8, 2008 Amrie

This might be the greatest recap I’ve seen since LOST in 8:15 from last season (in fact, it’s the same narrator). Go Catch the Frak Up to get ready for the final 10 episodes!

A few January premieres

SciFi – STARGATE ATLANTIS ends
