July 4, 2017: Time dilation fields! Shout-outs! And more!

Remember that episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation where Picard ends up living out his entire life on some alien world and then, at episode's end, after decades have passed and he's a very old man, he discovers it was all a temporal ruse?  Well, that happened to me today.  Sort of.  Except instead…

July 3, 2017: Dark Matter-like book recommendations!

If you enjoy Dark Matter and are looking for a book that is similar in spirit, might I suggest the following ten scifi novels. Whether it's kickass characters, a shipboard setting, an anti-villain premise, or a sense of humor, Dark Matter shares a little something with each of these amazing titles... The Darwin Elevator (Dire Earth Cycle,…

July 2, 2017: Mom, a mini Stargate reunion, and your last chance to get your questions in for our upcoming Q&A with actress Ayisha Issa!

Like me, my mother is a fairly prolific reader.  Unlike me, she prefers books with soft conflicts and happy endings.  You know, the ones that inevitably get adapted for television by the Hallmark Channel.  So, apparently, last week she started to read a book so upsetting that she couldn't get the images out of her…

July 1, 2017: I feel like it was only three weeks ago…

Another writers' room has come to an end.  And, as we all go our separate ways, I take a moment to reflect on the time we spent together... The story discussions. The morning, mid and late afternoon coffees. The meals. The post-meal malaise. And, of course, that Alaskan cruise. Good times.  Good times.

June 30, 2017: Tonight at 9pm – an all-new episode of Dark Matter!

Well, that's that.  The house is sold.  Now, I have two months to decide on my next move...which really needs to involve actually moving - out.

June 28, 2017: Dark Matter “All The Time In The World” – Teasers and Theories!

Today has been a very, very, very weird day. Very weird. Let's see what tomorrow brings. But in the meantime, let's continue our look at Dark Matter Episode 304, "All The Time In The World".  First there was the loops.  Then, there was phasing assassin. Finally, there were the Android flash-forwards... Android flashes forward to her on…

June 27, 2017: More BTS goodies on Dark Matter’s “All The Time In The World”

Well, the house inspection is tomorrow and if it passes (And I can't see why it wouldn't), the sale is a done deal and I have to start figuring things out - like what the hell am I going to do with my massive toy and comic book collection?  And if, by some crazy happenstance,…

June 26, 2017: Ayisha Issa (Solara Shockley) Q&A! Episode 304 BTS tidbits!

It was back in 2015 that an actress by the name of Ayisha Issa auditioned for the show.  I thought she was terrific but, alas, not quite right for the role.  Still, her audition so impressed me that I filed away Ayisha's name in my "To Cast!" memory file.  A year later, as we were…

June 25, 2017: My sunny Sunday! And more on Dark Matter’s “All The Time In The World”

Another two Open Houses this weekend, another 5+ hours of self-imposed exile for Akemi and I and the dogs.  We packed up the dog beds, the strollers, the water bottles and bowls, the collars and leashes, the dog treats - and headed out for a nice long walk... Which, for my geriatric, achy-boned old dogs…
