“SECRETS AND LIES,” WHICH PREMIERES, SUNDAY, MARCH 1

“Secrets and Lies” Features a Two-Hour Series Premiere Beginning at 9:00 p.m., ET

Ryan Phillippe portrays Ben Crawford, a handsome and decent family man, who will never be the same after he discovers the body of his neighbor’s young son in the woods. Even as Detective Andrea Cornell, played by Juliette Lewis, digs for the truth in her investigation and pegs Ben as a “person of interest,” the case unfolds from Ben’s unique perspective -- whether he is guilty or not. In trying to clear his name, it is Ben who peels back the layers of these suburbanites’ lives in their quiet cul de sac, revealing their dirty little deceptions and all-too-crowded closets overflowing with skeletons in this 10-episode thrilling who-done-it.

UNIT - Extinction

9 February 2015

Big Finish is delighted to announce that Kate Stewart and her UNIT team from the Doctor Who TV series will be starring in a brand new series of audio dramas, in a licensing deal with BBC Worldwide.

Kate is the daughter of Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart, and Head of Scientific Research at the Unified Intelligence Taskforce, which investigates and confronts alien attacks on the planet Earth. The role is portrayed by Jemma Redgrave (Dracula, Frankie, Cold Blood) who has appeared opposite Matt Smith and Peter Capaldi on television, and returns for the audio series.

Cody Christian plays Mike Montgomery on ABC Family’s award winning series, Pretty Little Liars, which airs Tuesdays. The actor recently talked to the digital media about the show and what fans can expect moving forward. Tune in to Pretty Little Liars tomorrow night at 8/7c.

Following the review is a roundup of questions and answers, as well as a detailed recap of the episode.

Each week Helix brings more questions and answers, and this week was no different. The episode, titled "Densho," gave us more on the virus, as we now know the source of it and how some of the characters were infected.

This week brought not only some more great juxtaposed music but also much more craziness in the form of Hatake. Not only is he hallucinating his dead wife and son, whose dead bodies sit at his dinner table, but now he wants to do the same to Julia. In an extremely creepy and also odd in the best ways scene, he takes her to his basement of horrors and gets ready to presumably embalm her.

The other great scene we get from those two characters is the awesomely choreographed fight between Julia and her father. Apparently you can bring an axe to a sword fight.

I had watched the first season before I first heard that Michael Hirst was interested in me coming in and playing the character, and then when I started hearing that, I just binged watched the second season, and it became one of my favorite shows on television. They started sending me some pages, and the words were so alluring that were on the page, and I thought, wow, this is really interesting.
