Tenth Doctor: The Musical.

Yes, I know ***Dave already posted it to his site, but it’s too awesome not to post here as well:

“Slingers” looks like it’ll be my new favorite TV show…

…if it ever gets made,that is. Slingers is a 60′s heist story at heart, albeit one set in the 2260′s. It’s the brainchild of Mike Sizemore and it stars Sean Pertwee — as in the son of the third Doctor from Doctor Who, Jon Pertwee — along with Adrian Bower, Tom Mison, Margo Stilley, Haruka . . . → Read More: “Slingers” looks like it’ll be my new favorite TV show…

“You only think you’re free.”

I’m a huge fan of the 1967-68 British TV series The Prisoner starring and co-created by Patrick McGoohan. It is weirdly subversive with an ending that will turn your brain inside out. I watched it in full on the Sci-Fi channel years back when the channel was worth watching.

Trailer for the “V” series remake hits the net.

I remember when the original V TV mini-series was aired back in 1983. It was a big hit in part because it had some surprisingly decent special effects for a sci-fi TV series for that time.

Russel T. Davies and David Tennant on leaving “Doctor Who.”

The Times Online has an interview with Russel T. Davies and David Tennant on their decision to leave Doctor Who this year. It’s not a particularly long or revealing interview, but one bit that stood out for me was their commenting on how the show’s revival made it cool to be a fan again:

“Planet of the Dead” trailer hits the net.

The trailer for the Doctor Who Easter special Planet of the Dead has hit the net and it looks pretty cool:

Looks like a riff on Pitch Black but without the darkness and Vin Diesel.

“FAQ About Time Travel” looks like it’ll be funny.

Being billed as “Doctor Who meets Shaun of the Dead” a new British comedy called Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel has just unleashed a trailer onto the Net. This movie has two things going for it with me: 1) It’s a time travel comedy and 2) It has Chris O’Dowd (Roy) from The IT . . . → Read More: “FAQ About Time Travel” looks like it’ll be funny.

“Better off Ted” looks like it might be funny.

New sci-fi comedy show coming up on ABC looks like it might be amusing:

I’ll have to check that out.

“Torchwood: Children of Earth” official trailer hits the net.

The bad news is it’ll be a short five episode series this year. The good news is it’ll be broadcast over a five night period mini-series style:

Looks intriguing!
