Tonight, AMC premiered an all-new episode of its hit series, The Walking Dead. In tonight’s episode, Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) was let out of his cell to help fight off the massive zombie hordes headed towards Alexandria by Gabriel (Seth Gilliam), something that Aaron, played by Ross Marquand, was not happy about.

Happy or not, Aaron ended up having to rely on him after temporarily losing his sight from the hogweed, and Negan ended up saving his life.

Marquand recently talked to SciFi Vision about the episode, working with Morgan, dealing with the practical effects, and more.

Tricia Helfer, who’s probably best known to science fiction fans as Number Six in Battlestar: Galactica, will be joining the cast of Syfy’s Van Helsing this season as Dracula. Her first episode will premiere November 8th.

She will also be guest starring in Shudder’s Network's Creepshow on October 17th as Lydia Layne.

Helfer recently talked to SciFI Vision in an exclusive interview about joining the cast of Van Helsing, what fans can expect of her female Dracula, working on Creepshow, and more.

Today Serial Box released the fifth episode of Orphan Black: The Next Chapter, titled “Every Child is Cast from Paradise,” by Madeline Ashby.

This week’s episode is mostly about the characters trying to get information from each other. I’m happy to finally see Sarah and Delphine talking to Vivi, even if they haven’t really uncovered much yet. Not only that, but it looks like Art may finally have to let Jay in on Clone Club. I was curious if he could make up some kind of cover story on the fly that was believable, but it seems like it is going the other direction. I do feel that he can trust her, however. It is fun though to see someone else like he was back in the first season of the series, confused that nothing adds up. Also, how far will he go to get Cosima back?

As a side note, Sarah realizing right away that it was Vivi pretending to be Cosima and tricking her was great, as was the information about the musical security system Cosima and Delphine have set up. Even if it wasn’t really important to the story, it was still entertaining.

This week’s episode of The Walking Dead, which airs Sunday, is titled “Ghosts.” I can’t talk about the title without discussing spoilers, but it’s pretty apropos.

As the possibility of The Whispers returning looms over the group, paranoia takes over. If that wasn’t enough, they’re confronted with enough walkers that they're left with little time to deal with much else.

Tonight, an all-new episode of Van Helsing premieres on Syfy. The series is set during the vampire apocalypse and follows Vanessa Van Helsing (Kelly Overton) and the friends she meets along the way, as they fight to stop the vampires and take their world back.

The Walking Dead is back again on Sunday with an all-new episode, “We Are the End of the World.” A flashback serves to reveal how Alpha became who she is and how the Whisperers came to be, including meeting Beta for the first time. Alpha also struggles to teach her daughter not to fear and to be ready for what’s to come.

Interspersed with the flashbacks, a previous event causes one of the Whisperer’s to doubt their ways, which could stir up some rebellion or cause even worse problems for the leader. Can Alpha keep control of the pack?

Today Serial Box released the fourth episode of Orphan Black: The Next Chapter, “To Ignore the Oblivious,” by Lindsay Smith.

The last episode left off with quite the cliffhanger, with Charlotte stuck at the hospital with the clone Dana, potentially exposed to the unknown illness with no cure. This episode takes straight off from there and is filled with just as much suspense.

This episode really starts to connect the dots to all the puzzle pieces, showing how everything is related. Not only is it confirmed that Dana and her sisters (yes there’re more!) were the target of GRIT’s genetic attack, but in my opinion, it seems like there could potentially be a connection to GeneKeep where Kira is working. While trying to stay away from the whole clone business, did she inadvertently put herself back in the middle? Regardless, I will say that her storyline has gotten much more interesting this episode.

I was really happy this time to get Tatiana Maslany’s performance in time for the review, which I didn’t last time. It really makes a difference hearing her voice the characters. I was also pleasantly surprised that we got another familiar face this episode, even if only briefly.

Monday night, Prodigal Son returns with an all-new episode. The series follows Malcolm Bright (Tom Payne), the son of the incarcerated serial killer Martin Whitly (Michael Sheen), who uses his traumatic memories and knowledge of killers to become a criminal profiler.

Besides the others at the NYPD, he is also helped by medical examiner, Dr. Edrisa Tanaka, played by Keiko Agena, who is quite taken by him.

Agena recently talked to SciFi Vision in an exclusive interview about working on the show.
