Futoncritic says that filming has begun on the next series of Torchwood.

Article lists main cast members, guest stars and hints at plottiness.

Fox is streaming SCC and Fringe for people at universities.

(Check it out).

I suppose they figure that students might not have tvs? (They're "simulstreaming" the shows with the regular broadcast.)

That was a nice scene between Alison and FF's character.

Thorne is really growing on me. Even before her scene with Allison, when she walked away from Henry in frustration and smacked the file against the wall; she's not mustache-twirly. She may not even be evil. But even if she is, she's a fully drawn character, even if we don't understand her or where she's coming from or where she's trying to go. And I'm really enjoying FF's delivery of her lines. She's just so grounded, and even when she's being a beeyatch, it seems real and... understandable?

Also, Yay!Mummy's for bring out Bear McCreary's non-cheesy repetoire.

Anyone want to take bets that we get a non-diamond Stark appearance before the end of the episode?

Totally agree on FF, especially her scene with Allison. If she's playing people, she's playing them well. That little snort of self-disgust when she realized what she said with Allison there was spot on.

Woe.

::sniff::

Fargo's "I'm in heaven" was funny, but I couldn't laugh. The funny bits surrounding reminders of Stark being dead just weren't funny, even though they kinda were. Too soon, man! Too soon. Being light-hearted does not mean making light of the dark shit they laid down. I mean, I'm glad they didn't go all gloom and doom and Allison wasn't balling her eyes out, but... Stark's death being part of a punchline rubbed wrong. Wait at least an ep or too, jeez.

And I'm again jazzed about the diamond necklace making an appearance, so unexpectedly. I was half-expecting Allison to destroy it, which would have thematically delighted me --for reasons not having to do with the show.

Oh, Zane, you arrogant peacock. Redeem yourself and bring the triptex immediately to Henry and Carter. Not because I want Eva undone, but because, if they want me to like him, please don't let him just be an arrogant peacock. And please don't let the characters get suckered by keeping suspicious information to themselves and not trusting their colleagues (hullooo, Season 2!)

Well, I was wrong about that, but I DO wonder if the "imprinting" on the diamond might be a possible avenue for return. If EQ keeps turning up in the credits, I'm going to start getting a Buffy season 3 vibe from this.

And does that mean there will be a spinoff about a snarky scientist/private detective called Stark coming next season?

i'm still full of woe for the demise of the Stark&Carter show.

p.s. i recently ahemmed an old show called Young Americans. it was a semi-spinoff of Dawson's Creek. annnnnnnnnyway. point is, there was young Ed Quinn and i don't think i would have recognized him without the facial hair if his voice wasn't so distinctive.
