REVOLUTION is a much hyped new show by J.J. Abrams, Jon Faveau and Eric Kripke that will air on NBC in the fall. The show is set 15 year after *something* knocks out everything on Earth that is electric or requires batteries. Without power, governments have fallen and society has gone back to its agrarian roots. However, some hold the secret of why the power went out, and potentially the ability to restore it. And this information is valuable indeed.

Last weekend at Dragon*Con in Atlanta, The Vampire Diaries cast members Ian Somerhalder, Joseph Morgan, Nathaniel Buzolic and Sebastian Roche sat down with fans for an unforgettable panel. These guys were so funny. We didn’t get much season 4 scoop, but we did get an idea of how silly these guys can be. Nathaniel and Sebastian need to be a …

Earlier this week I had the opportunity to participate in the Paley Center for Media’s annual Preview Parties honoring the major networks. First up were NBC and CBS. What are these parties you may ask, though? Well, each year the five major networks take time to visit the Paley Center, bringing along with them pilots of some of their new …

There were over 300 celebrities in Atlanta over the past weekend for Dragon*Con, so I was ready to get my “I SPY” on and find some. You can go to the Walk of fame at Dragon*Con and get autographs, but I wanted more than that! I did bump into a few celebs which made my Dragon*Con experience even better. Check out my I …

Dragon*Con, the largest multi-media convention focused on Science fiction and fantasy, was absolutely amazing this year. It took place in Atlanta, GA Friday, August 31st through Monday September 3rd and what a whirlwind it was. With over 3,500 hours of panels, workshops and contests, I decided to highlight a few of my favorite things from Dragon*Con weekend. True Blood Panels – …

What would you do to have everything you desire? It’s difficult to gauge the audience after watching the full pilot of the new ABC thriller series 666 Park Avenue. It almost felt like they didn’t know how to react. I of course loved it, even more since this was my third viewing. It has all the elements that draw me to a …

Probably my favorite thing about San Diego Comic Con is the parties. While I love doing the press rooms and gabbing with talent, it’s more fun to catch them in a relaxed and casual atmosphere, preferably with a drink in my hand – their hand – drinking a beverage. This year, Nice Girl Melissa and I covered the coolest of the cool …

On Saturday of Comic Con, we stayed at the convention center late to watch the Mythbusters panel. We sat by a boy who had bumped into Adam Savage twice during the week! We were able to scoot up a couple rows, but not much. They were telling the crowd to fill in all the seats and get as packed as …

Last week at Comic Con 2012, Entertainment Weekly once again hosted their Powerful Women on Television (otherwise known as Women Who Kick Ass) panel this time featuring the following actresses: Kristin Bauer van Straten from True Blood; Sarah Wayne Callies from The Walking Dead; Kristin Kreuk formerly from Smallville and now the star of the new CW series Beauty and …

For a serious show about a ghost, a vampire and a werewolf, the panel for Syfy’s Being Human was anything but serious. Stars Sam Huntington and Sam Witmer jumped out on stage mock fighting, while Meaghan Rath looked graceful and calm opposite her co-stars. Moderated by Dru Moorhouse from Zap2It, the panel was much like the opening: laughs mixed with serious …
