From the onset, I promised viewers, twists, turns, surprises and shocks over the course of Dark Matter's first season. There have been plenty in these first 11 episodes and there are a couple of more BIG ones to come. So, as we barrel toward our big double episode finale (this Friday night on SyFy and SpaceChannel…
August 24, 2015: Looking ahead to Episodes 12 and 13; looking back on Episode 11!
When I was first told that the last two episodes of the season would run as a double-header finale, I didn't like the idea. We'd fashioned each episode to end with a huge, more often than not, WTF?! moment that would keep viewers buzzing until the following week's instalment. In my mind, the BIG WTF?!…
August 23, 2015: The Dog Days of Dark Matter!
The first time I visited the wardrobe department, I noticed the photo of the dog on the back wall. I thought it was amusing, didn't think anything of it until the next time I visited and noticed the second photo. I dismissed them as "funny dog pictures". Until, on my third visit, I noted they…
August 22, 2015: Dark Matter Episode 11! What’d you think?
So, what'd many of you think? I use the term "many" because our international friends have yet to see the dark, adrenaline-charged, action-packed recent episode. All I'm going to say is: "One more question answered - and a couple of more asked. Like what the heck happened in those closing minutes?!" More answers to come…

http://www.threeifbyspace.net/2015/08/dark-matter-episode-10-review-razas-eleven/#.Vc63ZXg-B-U "While all the mysteries presented in Dark Matter have me clawing for an answer, this “sub-atomic, sub-dimentional” mystery is the one I’m currently most interested in because it has the potential to take us in directions we don’t yet know exist." http://www.thetvjunkies.com/dark-matter-episode-ten/?utm_content=buffer61bb4&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=buffer "Episode 10 was an action-packed, drama-filled season high for the series, bringing…
August 14, 2015: Behind the scenes on Dark Matter Episode 10!
I love a good heist episode. And Dark Matter Episode 110 is a great one! A great mix of action, humor, character moments - with the added bonus of some of the most enjoyably colorful guest characters this side of Arcturus-4! Torri Higginson (Stargate: Atlantis), Ennis Esmer (Red Oaks, The Listener), Jessica Sipos (Ascension), Jon Cor (Shadowhunters), Conrad Pla…
August 13, 2015: Recommended Reads! And Dark Matter screenshots!
After last year's impressive reading tally, I set the bar a lot lower this year but, even so, it looked like I was going to come up short of the 100 book mark. Over this past month, however, I've done some major catching up. Here are a few of the titles I enjoyed... Half A…

The Mikkei Combine’s Commander Delaney Truffault (Torri Higginson, STARGATE: ATLANTIS) offers the crew a golden opportunity to make some much-needed cash and acquire some much-needed protection by taking on a job to heist a mysterious device from a rival corporation.

August 7, 2015: The Dark Matter Season 2 game plan! Dark Matter Episode 109!
The Dark Matter season 2 check-list: 1) Expand the "world" of Dark Matter, from the rule and reach of the Galactic Authority to the structure and rivalries of the interplanetary corporations; the place of humanity in colonized space to the place of Androids in a system driven by humanity. 2) What lies beyond the realm of colonized space! 3)…
