Love the Universe #5: V-Tastic!
It may be based an old idea, but ‘V’ is the best new science fiction show I’ve seen since Stargate Universe. Maybe it’s my lady-crush on the lovely (and in this case horrifying) Morena Baccarin of ‘Firefly’ fame, but mostly it’s just great television. If you haven’t had the chance to catch an episode of ‘V’, which has just wrapped up it’s second season, you are missing out. So what’s the deal with ‘V’? Visitors have … Read entire article »

Love the Universe! #4: Scott Snyder & Stephen King’s American Vampire
When I first found out that Stephen King was working on an original comic series, I could not wait to get my hands on it. Though some of King’s work (such as the Dark Tower series) has been adapted into comics, this is indeed his first foray into writing specifically for the medium. ‘American Vampire’ was created by Scott Snyder, who has worked for Marvel and DC, but it is his first creator-owned series – … Read entire article »

But something fundamental has changed with Stargate Universe (SGU) that makes it more akin, at least in my mind, to one other show in particular: … Read entire article »

Love the Universe! #1: First look: Fallout New Vegas
Turns out, you can’t have too much of a good thing when it comes to the Fallout series. When I first heard about the latest installment, New Vegas, I really wasn’t sure if I had 100 plus hours to spend completing another game as immersive as this. After all, I’d spent countless (well, not countless seeing as the game keeps track, but too many hours to admit anyway) playing both Oblivion and Fallout 3. This … Read entire article »
