July 30, 2015: Dark Matter – Setups and Payoffs!
As most of you know, I created and started developing Dark Matter back when I was working on Stargate: Atlantis. The hope was to roll into Dark Matter whenever Stargate ended...which turned out to be a little later than I'd originally expected. Throw in a year to script and launch the Dark Horse Comics series, the inevitable/interminable wait for the financing to come…
July 29, 2015: Joe and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day!
Well, let's call it 22 hours and counting. 1. Unlike previous years, 2015 offers a very narrow window in which I can take my annual culinary journey to Japan. And so, after much back and forth, Akemi and I finalized the dates and I spent the better part of three hours booking flights online. Akemi…
July 27, 2015: Dark Matter secrets! BTS pics!
So, in Episode 107, the crew gained entrance to the mystery room and we finally found out what it held. Or did we? Sure, we found weapons, cash, an entertainment model android and a woman in stasis, but something doesn't quite line up here. Remember back in Episode 101 when FIVE was talking to SIX…

July 24, 2015: Pizza and Dark Matter!
Last night episode of Dark Matter was written by former Stargate creator/writer/director/executive producer/showrunner Robert C. Cooper. Sure, he writes some pretty good scripts - but what he really excels at is making pizza...which Akemi, Ivon and I can confirm after having had dinner at his place the other night... So, yeah, thanks for last night's episode. But an especially big…

July 23, 2016: Tokyo in 2016? Maaaaaybe!
To quote Dark Matter's SIX (Episode 103): "Fresh starts for all of us, right?" Right! With the real estate market blazing here in Vancouver, Akemi has been not so subtly suggesting it might be time to cash out. And she does have a point. As much as I love my house, I've calculated that we only use…
July 22, 2015: Lulu! #DarkMatter notes!
Thanks to those inquiring about my french bulldog, Lulu. Alas, nothing in the way of any significant improvement yet although I would best describe the change in her condition as a slight upgrade from "yellow mustard" to "Japanese curry". I'm hopeful for an eventual advancement to "Irish stew" but, for now, we're treating her with antibiotics,…
July 21, 2015: Lulu update! Another Periscope? More #DarkMatter Episode 107 photos!
Thanks to all those who asked but, sadly, Lulu isn't doing any better. Yesterday's ultrasound offered up nothing in the way of answers, so she's going in for an endoscopy on Thursday morning to test for something called stand lymphagectasia. If that too comes up empty, then next week it's a colonoscopy to check for…
