Last October the digital press visited the set of Helix as part of the the Syfy Digital Press Tour. Part of the photos had been embargoed, but as such have now been released in time for the season finale.

The third Helix set location (see parts 1 & 2) was actually a real life research facility. We started off down to the underground base where the door to the facility was surrounded by fake snow. Director/executive producer Brad Turner picked up the cord to demonstrate how the characters hold on to it to move around outside.

Last Sunday NBC premiered its new series Crisis. Star Dermot Mulroney, who plays Francis Gibson, recently talked to the media about his character and what fans can expect moving forward.

Mulroney talked to SciFi Vision about not knowing the full storyline from the beginning of filming. "It is true that I had very little knowledge of what was coming moments later. We'd get the scripts about four or five days in advance. The thing is, we did the whole season as planned - 13 episodes, so now I know everything and it's awesome. There's some really good semi sci-fi twists in our story too that I think people are going to love...It comes unexpected and it's not alien mother ships or anything but, you know, there're some touches. It's really enjoyable in terms of those types of stories."

Tuesday from the Jim Henson Company and Syfy comes the new reality competition series Jim Henson's Creature Shop Challenge. The show will feature ten contestants who will build creatures to win $100,000 and the job of a lifetime – a contract to work at Jim Henson's Creature Shop.

Chairman of the Jim Henson Company and the Creature Shop, as well as son of Jim Henson, Brian Henson, is lead judge on the series. Yesterday he talked to the media about the new Syfy series.

Henson would not reveal much to SciFi Vision about the upcoming creature designs on the series. "We kind of keep it a little bit secret, because that's part of the fun, so I won't tell you too much. I will say that creatures in general - there's a really wide range that you can do depending on if they're small or they're large or what kind of technique you're using. Is it more fabrication or is it more mechanization?
