American Idol recently finished up its eleventh season on Fox. The reality show chronicles singers' journeys during the season where teens and young adults compete to win the ultimate title along with a recording contract.
With this season of “Grimm” on a roll, thanks to bringing Hank into the Scooby Gang finally, it’s time to slide into a bit more conventional material. In this case, that means a plague that strikes the Wesen in particularly nasty form. Granted, it has some initial side effects that any fan of our favorite Fuchsbau can appreciate, but it’s a nasty piece of work, regardless.
After a spotty lead-up, “Lost Girl” is ready to launch into its big end-of-season conflict between Team Bo and the Garuda. But after too many episodes where not much happened, the writers have gone too far in the other direction and tried to cram too much into this first part of the big conclusion. The result is an episode the jumps around like a jittercam; every genuinely fantastic element is shoved roughly against some weakness of plot or presentation. The episode makes an impact, but not nearly as much as it could have.
Most fans will recognize Lea Thompson from movies, such as the Back to the Future films, or from television where she played the title role in the series Caroline in the City. Thompson now, however, stars as Kathryn Kennish in ABC Family's Switched at Birth. In the show, Kathryn is shocked when she discovers that the daughter she raised, Bay Kennish (Vanessa Marano), belongs to another family, who have her and her husband (D.W. Moffett)'s biological daughter, Daphne Vasquez (Katie Leclerc).
Some of Necessary Roughness’s story lines are wrapping up while new ones emerge on the mid-season finale. During a conference call SciFi Vision attended with Necessary Roughness star, Callie Thorne, she shared her thoughts about the mid-season finale. 
Greg Grunberg is not new to television. Many fans will know him from series such as Felicity, Alias, Heroes, and even Lost. He has also done some voice work in various video games such as Halo: Reach and L.A. Noire. The actor can also be seen in the upcoming Syfy films Mega Spider and End of the World.
Most fans probably know Verne Troyer as Mini-Me in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, but he has quite a few other film credits to his name, including Mighty Joe Young, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, and The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, to name a few.
Switched at Birth returns to ABC Family for its second season on September 3rd, and in anticipation of that, star Vanessa Marano, who plays the role of Bay Kennish, recently talked to the media about the new season and what fans can expect moving forward.
Recently Falling Skies came to an end for the summer. Many fans were sad to see Dai, played by Peter Shinkoda, die in the season finale. I recently talked to the actor in an exclusive interview for SciFi Vision specifically about filming the death sequence and the end of his journey on the series.
