Syfy, Space and Temple Street Productions announced today that production has commenced in Toronto, Ontario for Season Two of the space-adventure series KILLJOYS.

Racing Extinction Documentary – Review. Change Starts With One Thing.

<i>Racing Extinction</i> Documentary – Review. Change Starts With One Thing. 2

#StartWith1Thing – Is mankind causing a mass extinction event? From Oscar®-winning film director Louie Psihoyos (THE COVE) and producer Fisher Steven, Racing Extinction is one of the most visceral and gut wrenching documentaries I’ve seen in a long while. The brilliant undercover work by The Oceanic Preservation Society (OPS), and other dedicated and passionate activists like Shawn Heinrichs, Paul Hilton, Dr. Heather Kelly, and Charles Hambleton showcase the brutality of the black market trade for certain species; their investigative reporting is both awe inspiring and maddening. When I first heard about Racing Extinction, I originally thought it was about global warming and its effects on the planet. While there is mention of climate change and how the pollutants have destroyed our eco-system, Racing Extinction goes deeper.

Grimm – “Maiden Quest” Recap. Axes, Swords, and Golden Feathers.

<i>Grimm</i> – “Maiden Quest” Recap. Axes, Swords, and Golden Feathers. 12

Grimm writers do an excellent job of bringing something so old-fashioned into the modern day with the Weten Ogen Wesen tradition. Daniel Troyer (guest Richard Portnow), a wealthy businessman with mob ties, sends three young men on a task to avenge his son’s (not seen) death. Each man must pull a gold Griffon feather to see who goes first. The mission – to bring Troyer the head of Frankie Adkins (guest star Robert Baker), a low level crime boss who Troyer believes is responsible for the death of his son. And with only his daughter Emily (Madeline Zima) left, Troyer offers up her hand in marriage to whoever succeeds. But Emily doesn’t seem too pleased with this so-called tradition.

Pulling out all the stops since its premiere, AHS: Hotel delivers a visually compelling production from its cinematography to extravagant wardrobe designs. Yet beyond the enthralling aesthetics in AHS: Hotel, the season lacks fluidity in connecting its various story lines.
