COMIC-CON Scoop All Weekend

Comic-ConI leave in a mere 5 hours for sunny San Diego where I’ll probably see no sun or feel no summer loving as I’ll be spending all of my time inside the San Diego Convention Center with 200,000 of my closest geek friends.

COMIC-CON 2007 begins tomorrow and I’m there all weekend with GMMR and some other TV Bloggers for the biggest group of television panels a fan could dream of.

Want LOST scoop? Heroes Spoilers? Supernatural Hotties? Battlestar’s Final Season Spoiler? The dish on new shows like Pushing Daisies, Chuck, Bionic Woman, Reaper, Moonlight, Journeyman, and many more? Want a podcast chock full of these goodies? Well, keep checking back all weekend as I’ll try and post some updates each night.

Want to follow me all day, Thursday through Sunday while I try and get Lee Pace naked? Follow me on TWITTER! There’s also a Twitter panel on the right hand sidebar. Check back for updates throughout the day, all day, all weekend!

While I’m gone, please head on over to my new site… DUCKY DOES TV! I’m in the midst of moving all posts there so that will be Ducky’s new home very very very soon! Let me know what you think. I love the new layout and I’m still working on all the content so bear with me.

May the force be with you or something dorky like that!

What TV Show Should I Download?

As you know, Comic-Con is this coming Thursday and the following week I’ve got some traveling to do as well. That means lots of time on airplanes. To be exact, there are 4, 5 or 6 hour flights in the next two weeks and I need something to watch!

What Show Should I Download From iTunes?

  • Psych (Season 1)
  • The Starter Wife
  • Bones (Season 1)
  • Jericho (Finish Season 1)

Duckyxdale GiveMeMyRemote Podcast

TV Podcast 11: Ducky and GMMR take a dip in the technical difficulties pool and come out swinging.

BIG BROTHER 8 has arrived and we’re obsessed. We talk spoilers, live feeds, and our favorites. What do we think about BURN NOTICE? PSYCH’s back on USA. KATHY GRIFFIN does gay porn and RESCUE ME forgets to rescue one of their own.

Do we need two karaoke shows? We dissect SPELLING BEE and DON’T FORGET THE LYRICS.

SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE continues to dominate the summer and we talk about our new favorites.

A little TRANSFORMERS talk? Sure, just a bit. COMIC-CON? Yes, we’re now Comic-Con geeks and we preview our trip at the end of July. PUSHING DAISIES, MOONLIGHT, BIONIC WOMAN and other Fall Shows.

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.

Kyle XY Premiere Tonight

KYLE XY Premieres tonight at 8pm on ABC Family.

Kyle XY

I’ve only made it through a couple episodes of Season 1 so far and this much I can tell you.

  • Matt Dallas is the cutest
  • Alex Krycek is creepy no matter what
  • Mother Trager is one trusting woman because if he wasn’t who/whatever he is that bitch and her whole family would be hogtied and in a ditch. Taking in an amnesiac belly buttonless mute who’s first words are “Juice Me”? This would not normally turn out well.
  • Hilary is the typical best friend high schooler and couldn’t be more prone to a life of faghaggery.
  • The hornball teens are not the best influences for Kyle; I’m just putting that out there…

For all you super Kyle XY fans out there I’m excited for you. I’m gonna Tivo it and watch once I’ve caught up. Looking forward to finishing Season 1.

Don’t forget to enter my KYLE XY Giveaway. Contest extended through tomorrow morning. Enter Kyle XY Contest here.

Kyle XY Contest

ABC Family’s surprise mega-hit Kyle XY returns for Season Two on June 11th and I’m happy to report that I have Kyle XY Prizes for you to win in the Ducky XY Contest!

If you want to win some Kyle XY swag (including the Kyle XY Soundtrack, Kyle XY Season 1 DVD, teaser posters, and Kyle XY postcards/tattoos) then watch the Kyle XY Season 2 Preview Video below and keep on reading.

Kyle XY

So it’s pretty simple really. If you want to win some of the prizes listed above there are two ways to do so!

Win with Ducky/Kyle XY Option #1:
You need only to listen to the Ducky|GMMR TV Podcasts on iTunes. People who download our podcast and comment on iTunes will be eligible for a Kyle Ducky XY Contest Prize. Once on our iTunes page simply click “Write a Review” and go to town.

Once you’ve listened to one of our podcasts and submitted a comment to iTunes, please email me and let me know along with your email address so I can contact you and let you know what you’ve won! Not everyone that comments will win but this helps our podcast reach new TV fanatics and helps you win!

Win with Ducky/Kyle XY Option #2:
Tell me your favorite moments from Season 1 and why I should watch Season 2! I’m not going to lie, I didn’t watch Season 1. I’m currently playing catch up and have rented the first season on DVD because I feel like its a show I would really appreciate. I didn’t get into it in the beginning because of the ad campaign. The whole bare midriff shot that haunted every billboard and banner ad felt a little too NAMBLA for me as he looks like a 12 year old boy. Who knew that hottie star Matt Dallas was really in his mid-20s and totally aware of the provocative nature of the advertising. So, convince me to finish season 1 with your favorite moments in the comments section below!

Contest runs through Monday June 12th when I will announce the winners the morning after the Kyle XY Season 2 Premiere.

If you’re interested in watching Kyle XY but are not caught up yet, here is your chance to do so. Rent or Netflix Season 1, or head on over to ABC Family’s Kyle XY Episode Guide and watch the Five Minute Episode by Episode Video Recaps!
