There you have it. Another brilliant promo from the gang at Syfy Publicity & Marketing. LOTS going on here.

Yes, it's true. Dark Matter's excruciatingly adorable Android, played by the equally excruciatingly adorable Zoie Palmer, has agreed to drop by and do a little fan Q&A.

Tomorrow will mark the last Tuesday of the Dark Matter season 2 production schedule. Where has the time gone?

Finally, after many months…
April 30, 2016: Bring Your Daughter to Work Day on Dark Matter! And more premiere dates!
This past Thursday was Bring Your Daughter to Work day on Dark Matter. As a result Lulu had the run of the place. Pictured above, seconds before she launched missiles on that Ferrous Corp cruiser.

February 19, 2016: A few Dark Matter twitter recommendations!
Can I just say how much I enjoy working with this guy? Jeff Teravainen (Lieutenant Anders) is a class act - who totally kills it onscreen. His presence may be bad news for our Raza crew, but always great news for our Dark Matter production crew. Can't wait for you to see Jeff tear it up in…
February 18, 2016: A new addition to the club! And another episode title!
Sure, he's directing episode 207 but, more importantly, Jason Priestley joined the Dark Matter Whisky/ey Club. He's a bourbon man. I have a feeling we're going to get along just fine. Hey! We have a new episode title! And the final tally on this one wasn't all that close either. So far, we have - Episode 14:…
February 17, 2016: Dark Matter news and notes!
Spent my afternoon in editing with the lovely Wendy Hallam-Martin, working on the John Stead-directed Episode 204. LOTS going on in this one. An alternate title I was going to throw into the mix "Space Station Are Dangerous" didn't make the cut because it literally did not make the cut. Ah, well. Still, a lot…
February 12, 2016: Dark Matter season 2 – behind the scenes action and goodies!
Ooh la la. A little something from the Hyperion-8 Jump Into Spring Collection. The most popular producer on set! Morning truffles (Early Grey and Bourbon) compliments of Akemi. I'll just leave this rock wall right here and pick it up later. Marc Bendavid (ONE) snacks between set-ups. So, uh, what's behind the big rusty door? The…
February 11, 2016: New episode title! A trip down Roxanne Borris memory lane!
As promised, here is the Episode 203 title chosen by YOU, the viewers and voters: "Episode 15: I've Seen The Other Side Of You". So far, I'm 2 for 3 in the title game. Prior to this one, I was secretly rooting for "Kill Them All", the eventual winner in the last round. Alas, "Most…
