The Clone Wars Almost Featured Boba Fett Dueling With Cad Bane

Unless there’s a new movie, it’s rare for Star Wars fans to learn something new about old Star Wars content. That changes at Star Wars Celebration, which is where Star Wars Rebels and Clone Wars producer Dave Filoni chose to reveal an unfinished, unaired snippet from The Clone Wars featuring two popular characters. Those characters…

Mathematician Boldly Claims That Redshirts Don’t Actually Die the Most on Star Trek

We all know in our souls that being a redshirt on Star Trek is basically like having a death wish. But our old enemy, math, has stepped in again to tell us that we’re wrong. At a presentation at the Museum of Math last week, James Grime did a presentation interpreting a bunch of Star…

The Magicians Raises the Dead, Then Buries Itself Alive with an Inexcusable Retcon

Last season’s The Magicians ended with a hell of a cliffhanger, and it looks like this year is going to be no different. In fact, the Syfy series has gotten the ball rolling early, with a penultimate episode that not only saw the very surprising return to two characters, but finally put an end to…

Forget Superman, Cat Grant Will Be in Supergirl‘s Season Two Finale

The best thing about Supergirl moving to the CW and moving its production to Vancouver was that it meant that it was much easier to bring the DC/CW shows together for things like the musical episode. The worst part was that it meant losing Calista Flockhart’s Cat Grant as a regular. BUT SHE’S BACK, BABY!…

The First Trailer for The Mist TV Show Expands on Stephen King’s Story

When most people think of Stephen King’s The Mist, the first thing that comes to mind is the 2007 movie (and its incredibly messed-up ending). But if Spike TV has its way, that’ll change in June, when The Mist TV show—which just dropped its first trailer—makes its debut. What you immediately notice is that, unlike…

Holy Cow, Who Isn’t Coming Back to Arrow at This Point?

Today, Entertainment Weekly revealed that Nyssa al Ghul will make a re-appearance to fight her sister Talia in Arrow’s fifth season finale. Normally an announcement like this wouldn’t be much of a draw, but it has us questioning: why the hell is the CW bringing back so many characters to Arrow right now? The confirmation…

The Ending of Lost Almost Featured a Giant Volcano

The ending of Lost was almost much bigger than what audiences saw. Nothing was that different. The characters and island were always going to be what they ended up being. But, one big addition would have changed things significantly: a volcano. Lost executive producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse told the story to Entertainment Weekly.…

Arrow Is Bringing Back a Character We’re Actually Excited About

Stephen Amell, who uses Twitter with the same force as a firehose, welcomed an old friend back to the set of Arrow. And while we are almost certain it’s a flashback and not an actual return, I’m still good with it. Amell tweeted a shot of what is definitely the Deathstroke mask and tagged Manu…

Sense8 Is Much Better Than This Season Two Trailer, Just FYI

Sense8 can be a very good show—it’s got unbridled optimism and a daring willingness to play with big ideas. It’s kind of like some really smart people got together and wrote a scifi show after ripping on a bong for 12 hours straight. But Sense8’s big ideas sometimes get in the way of the gaggle…

The tenth—and Peter Capaldi’s final—season of Doctor Who begins next weekend, and despite a couple of trailers and an introduction to the new companion, we don’t actually know all that much about it.

We Have a Theory About Who This Actress Might Play on the Election-Themed American Horror Story

This is Billie Lourd, the daughter of the late Carrie Fisher. She appeared on both seasons of Scream Queens, and now she’s joining another one of Ryan Murphy’s shows: American Horror Story.

What Colony Gets Right About Living in an Apocalypse

I gave up on The Walking Dead back in season two. While I like bleak slogs toward the extinction of mankind as much as the next girl, it had started to feel like the show had no interest in moving forward, and no interest in building a larger storyline. But imagine if it did? That…
