Ducky Does COMIC-CON

Comic-ConAs you’ve maybe heard me mention in one or two posts, I’m taking my first trip to San Diego’s COMIC-CON INTERNATIONAL in two weeks.

Comic-Con has moved beyond the manga lovin’, furry wearing, swoard bearing, trekkies you’re thinking about right now. It’s more than a comic book convention. It’s a sci-fi convention as well. That doesn’t make it sound any less geek central does it? It’s turning into a Sci-Fi/Horror/Fantasy Film and TV Convention as well. Sound better? I thought so.

As you know, I’m one of the people that runs The Independent Film Festival of Boston (shout out Nancy, Brian, and Christine who regularly read the blog and are my cohorts) and obviously you know I’m a big TV geek. The chance to see panel discussions, meet creators of film and tv shows I love, see sneak previews of films and tv shows I love is just too big. I must go!

GMMR and I are shacking up in San Diego for the week and we’ll be meeting up with Rae, The TV Addict, Seat42f and many other tv bloggers (as well as 250,000 of our closest and scariest friends) to cover all things fall tv! We’re also hoping to do a huge TV Bloggers Podcast or two!

What shows are gonna be there? The list is big and here are the ones I plan on attending in some capacity.

TORCHWOOD (BBC America’s spin-off of Doctor Who)
LOST
REAPER
MOONLIGHT
24
CHUCK
PUSHING DAISIES
BIONIC WOMAN
TVGuide’s Hot List and Super Women
HEROES
KYLE XY
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA
SUPERNATURAL
SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES
SARAH SILVERMAN PROJECT
BUFFY’s 10th Anniversary
TIN MAN
The 4400
JERICHO

Granted some of these panels overlap so there will be a few that get missed but TV wise, this is my dream list. There are also a number of film events that I want to attend.

Paramount Studios Presentation, Lionsgate Presentation, FANBOYS (with Kristin Bell), Warner Bros Films, 20th Century Fox, Shoot Em Up, Rob Zombie’s HALLOWEEN!!!!!, Rogue/Focus films, The Incredible Hulk with Ed Norton and many more.

Kinda crazy, huh?

Are any of you guys going? What do you want me to find out or meet or see while I’m there? Let me know.

Bionic Woman’s Michelle Ryan Interview

Bionic Woman NBCThe good folks over at IGN (shout out to fellow Supernatural Set Visitor) have an interview up with the new Bionic Woman Michelle Ryan. As you know, this is one of my most anticipated shows for the fall season and the pilot delivers in spades so right now I’m on the hunt for any and all things Bionic Woman.

Wanna know if the newest British Import Michelle Ryan watched the very American original? Want confirmation that of course Michelle Ryan was on Eastenders? Hell I’ve been on Eastenders… okay I’ve not been but seriously every Brit has. Does she like sticky dots all over her body (grosso’s get your heads out of the gutters)? And finally does she have a girl crush on Battlestar’s Katee Sackhoff?

Head on over to Eric Goldman’s interview with Michelle Ryan.

Katee Sackhoff on Bionic Woman and BSG: Double Duty

Katee Sackhoff

At this week’s Sci-Fi Channel Battlestar Galactica “All Access Event”, the big draw seems to be the smokin’ hot Katee Sackhoff. Bionic Woman is one of the most talked about shows for the Fall over on NBC and with Battlestar announcing their last season NBC/Universal is carting Sackhoff out like the second coming of Girl Christ that kicks a lot of ass and can fly a raptor if needed?

Here is a quick video of Katee Sackhoff from the Battlestar Galactica “All Access Event” where she talks about Bionic Woman.

When asked about being on two shows at once she exclaimed “Holy shit I’m gonna be tired.” She reveals that Battlestar Galactica and Bionic Woman are shooting on the same lot and that there’s talk of getting her her very own suped up golf cart to travel around from stage to stage on.

Yes she will be filming both at the same time and she would only confirm that she’s on more than one episode but less than fifteen episodes because they were only picked up for thirteen.

Battlestar Galactica “All Access Event” Pictures

Last night in Los Angeles, Sci Fi Channel had an All Access Event with the cast and creators of the frakkin’ amazing Battlestar Galactica. Katee Sackhoff, Jamie Bamber, Edward James Olmos, Mary McDonnell, creators Ron Moore and David Eick among others were there. The event was hosted by the deceased Cylon D’Anna aka Lucy Lawless.

The anticipation for Bionic Woman on NBC this fall has me obsessed with Katee Sackhoff as she guest stars. Click here to read my thoughts on the Bionic Woman pilot.

Here are pictures of Katee Sackhoff:

‘Bionic Woman’ Pilot: First Thoughts

Bionic Woman NBC

While I can’t write a full review of NBC’s new Fall show Bionic Woman, I can tell you that it rocks incredibly hard and kicks some major frakkin’ ass!

Bionic Woman lives up to every expectation I had for it. Coming from David Eick, one of the geniuses behind Battlestar Galactica, I knew it would more than likely be a slam dunk and seriously… it is!

Yes Katee Sackhoff is in the pilot and yes she is amazingly hardcore and badass but I’m happy to report that she is not the only BSG’er in the mix. Aaron Douglas (Chief Tyrol) and Baltar’s Lawyer, Romo Lampkin (actor Mark Sheppard) are also involved. We can only hope that with the end of BSG in sight, more and more of our favorites from Galactica will jump over to Bionic Woman. Know who else is in the show? Ann (Who?) Egg, er Ann from Arrested Development.

I will quickly say this, mark my words… Michelle Ryan will be a huge star after this show blasts off. She’s incredibly beautiful, soft, sweet, and swift with the ass whoopin’. Geeks everywhere will be wetting themselves for her. You go girl!
