This from the Futon Critic but it's pretty much everywhere:
Lucy Lawless will return to Battlestar Galactica for a minimum of two episodes of the show's fourth and final season, currently in production in Vancouver. Lawless will reprise her role as D'Anna, the religious zealot who broke away from the collective voice of her fellow Cylons, thus sowing the first seeds of dissention among the robot race. As a result of her divisive behavior, her entire model was deemed defective and was "boxed."
Jericho: [link]
A date has not been set for "Jericho's" second season, but production begins on Monday. It will be seven episodes. Star Skeet Ulrich tells me he suspects the show will not return until at least November -- or possibly in early 2008. First season's DVD hits stores in early October.
Here's what we do know about the second season:
"The story we pitched to (CBS) for season two was going to take place in three different locations -- Jericho, this new Cheyenne government, and coming from New York, which survived," says Carol Barbee, executive producer.
"When we got the short order, we said, 'Okay. We'll focus on Jericho.' So we're telling that story, and yes, we're still burning through more story than we would normally because it would have been a 22-episode arc, and now it's seven, but I think that's going to be very satisfying to the fans because it's going to go like that."
Here's what Barbee says the short season will play upon. "At the end of season one, right before the battle, Stanley tells Jake he's going to ask Mimi to marry him, and it doesn't exactly go down that way, but, yeah, they become engaged. So that's part of the personal story of the year. The big story for the year is the mission that Hawkins and Jake have to do to save the world, so that's what they'll be doing."
Lots of speculation about the Future of Who.
Oh, I'd hoped Tennant would remain The Doctor until he reached William Hartnell's age.
I don't want this revolving door of Doctors ! I mean, okay, he regenerates but still can't we get at least 5 series out of 1 Doctor!
And what's this, at 44 years Nesbitt might be too old to play an action hero type? First that just silly.
Not to mention the next Doctor would be the 11th and isn't it canon that Time Lords get 12 regenerations?
Aside from that I like Nesbitt and it would be interesting to see what his Doctor would be like.
I have to admit--Nesbitt's a powerhouse. As much as I still miss Nine, this'd make a third great Who 2005 casting move.
I really like him in Murphy's Law and I've only watched the first half of the first eipsdoe of Jekyll and it's amazing how he can change between the two characters so completely.
He's very different in Cold Feet--kinda goofy and handling the muted comedy well. I am a fan now, despite failing to get the first ep of Murphy's Law that I watched.
Ooo... dunno if this is old news, but I just read in a fan's ComicCon '07 report that Karen Allen has been confirmed as somehow involved in the 4th Indiana Jones movie.
