Friday Bloody Friday! We Preview SPARTACUS: VENGEANCE with Executive Produc
2012-01-26 22:25:00 It is good to be king, and it is even better to be a writer/executive producer of a hit television series. For Steven DeKnight, life does not get any better than being “king” of Starz’s drama series SPARTACUS: VENGEANCE. Taking time to chat with press in a recent conference call, Steven talked about what this next season holds in store and which characters may or may not make it through the season. I want to congratulate you for hiring Liam on as SPARTACUS because I feel like he captures the essence of what Andy started but makes it his own. STEVEN: Thank you, yes. That’s really what drew us to Liam is that we didn’t want to try to duplicate Andy. I mean, that will never happen. He was such a singular, amazing talent. But we wanted to find somebody that had the same base qualities of compassion. And I told all the actors when they auditioned that even though SPARTACUS may fly into a rage now and then, he never comes from a place of anger, it’s al...

In a recent press call, Allie shared what she enjoys about playing Laurel and what’s next on the horizon of THE LYING GAME.

Midseason TV Preview: JUSTIFIED’s Third Season Offers Another Dance With
2012-01-17 16:15:00 Returning for a third explosive season, FX’s razor-sharp series JUSTIFIED is back with more gunfights, brawls, and rampant crime in Harlan, Kentucky. Raylan Givens (Timothy Olyphant) may be a U.S. Marshal, but his life is cursed to be a crime-magnet. No matter what the situation or how many guns might be involved, Raylan walks straight in and astoundingly usually walks right back out. But in the second season finale, Raylan’s good luck ran out and he took a bullet in a shoot-out with Mags Bennett’s (Margo Martindale) crew. Also in that bloody finale, Raylan was not the only unlucky one as Ava Crowder (Joelle Carter) was shot point-blank by Mags’ son Dickie (Jeremy Davies), and Raylan’s aunt Helen (Linda Gehringer) was caught in the cross-fire as well. Crime is a bit incestuous with the Bennetts, Crowders, Givens and other clans looking to preserve their way of life — their god-given right to pursue the almighty dollar by any means necessar...

2012-01-16 22:30:00 Making its U.S. debut on Monday, January 16th, the Canadian-produced fantasy series LOST GIRL is set to lure audiences into the supernatural world of the Fae, beings that look human but which possess unique abilities that make them decidedly non-human. Some prey on humans, some which seek to protect humans, and some that do not even want to associate with humans. LOST GIRL focuses on a girl Bo, portrayed by Anna Silk, who knows she is not exactly normal, but is not certain what she is or where she fits in. Tripping across an old feud between the Light Fae and the Dark Fae, Bo’s fate hangs in the balance in the premiere episode as she is asked to fight to the death for the privilege of choosing which clan she will join. In a recent conference call with press, stars Anna Silk, Kris Holden and Zoie Palmer shared what LOST GIRL is really about and how their characters fit into this new supernatural world.

What has it been like to film Season 2 and how it feels different to play these characters in the second season? SAM H.: We love the show so much that I think I can speak for all of us when I say that we were all really, really excited to get back. The funny thing is I personally expected it to feel a lot like just one giant bout of déjà vu and, to be honest, it really just felt as though we never had the hiatus. It felt like that because it was all the same crew and a lot of the same cast it just felt like we had maybe a 2-day break and then we just rolled into Season 2. It was bizarre. But, at the same time, it was great because I felt l...

You’re Invited to the Ends of the Earth [Bar] as We Preview Fox’s Hot N
2012-01-09 23:23:00 The minute you enter the world of THE FINDER, you recognize right away that the world you know has shifted slightly. Things are a little different in the series that sprung from Fox’s other hit series BONES. For one, it feels so much more relaxed. But that is the illusion that they want you to have. For lurking beneath the surface is a murky world where the characters finds themselves in the most unusual of cases. THE FINDER is not all about death and homicide. Their mission is to simply find the impossible. Things lost over time. An elusive place tucked away in a memory that you want to revisit. Or perhaps a person who has slipped off the grid. Beautifully back-dropped by the lush flora of the Florida Keys, the heroes we meet gather literally at The Ends of the Earth – which is slightly rundown bar hiding out in the midst of God’s land. This is where the lost come to be found and where everyone comes to find something they have lost. Due to a traum...

We Preview the Magnificent 2nd Season Premiere of DOWNTON ABBEY
2012-01-09 00:01:00 The first season of DOWNTON ABBEY invited viewers back to the Edwardian times at an aristocrat estate in England just as the Titanic sank in 1912. The subsequent story followed the ripple-effects of the loss of the estate’s current heir and the rise of an unknown succeeding heir – as lineage and the question of “who would inherit” were absolutely vital. When a young barrister, Matthew Crawley, was discovered to be the next in line to inherit the vast estate of Downton Abbey, the current occupants, the Earl and Countess of Grantham as well as the rest of the Crawley family, were surprised and unsure how to welcome their newly discovered cousin. Because the Earl and his wife had only daughters and no sons, it was thought that the estate’s heir should marry their eldest daughter to keep the estate in the family. But, as this was 1912 and the world was on the verge of a new era, women were no longer content to be bartered as chattel and were exploring the worl...

Witches and Warlocks and Wizards Oh My! We Preview MERLIN’s Magical Four
2012-01-06 17:40:00 Fans of the fantasy series MERLIN have had a long wait since the dramatic finale of the 3rd season last year. But the long hiatus is finally over and it was worth the wait. Returning with its 4th season, things start off with a bang – or rather a nasty tear between our world and the netherworld and creepy crawlies soon swarm over Camelot. One icy touch and a person is not simply frozen in fear – they are literally frozen to death. Unleashed by Morgana and her evil sister Morgause, the Derocha are not simply ghosts in the night. They are supernatural creatures that will steal your soul, the very breath from your body, and worse yet – Merlin’s magic is impotent against them. It is the moment that every wizard fears, when you look into the face of your enemy completely helpless to defend yourself against them. Until this point, Merlin has been able to stand steadfast in the knowledge that he can always use his magic to protect himself and everyone he cares about...

Podcast 233 Preview: Fracking
2012-01-06 06:04:00 What the heck is Fracking, and why am I talking about it on this blog? I admit that I did not know anything about this subject until a week ago when a 4.0 magnitude earthquake struck about 10 miles from my home. Hydraulic Fracking, or as it is more commonly known, just Fracking, has the potential to have a huge economic boom in this part of the country. However, as exhibited by last weekend's earthquake, and the 10 other minor tremors last year locally, environmental concerns also question Fracking (and injection wells). And, as I talked about in yesterday's Chronicles blog, the potential to have huge political ramifications. My guest for Episode 233 of the podcast will be Karl Henkel (pictured above in the video) who is a business reporter from the Youngstown Vindicator newspaper. He has written more than a dozen articles on the subject in the past six months and has been a participant on radio shows talking about this as well.

Culture-Con Preview: Improving Internal Communication By Uniting Specialist
2012-01-05 17:12:00 Most people would agree that good communication is a critical factor to the health of any company. It’s the lifeblood that helps us to capture ideas, spread knowledge and realize common goals. However, promoting this “healthy flow” of communication can be difficult. This rings especially true with those who operate in the technology industry, as they know firsthand how it can sometimes feel like the business and technology departments literally speak two different languages. Great salespeople cannot make up for a technology that lacks in meeting customers’ needs and an amazing and revolutionary product team cannot succeed if the business side has no clue about the value their products provide. It’s information exchange that keeps a company strong and it requires both the business and technology departments to work together to maintain an open line of communication. But this isn’t always so easy. It’s amazing how the exact same set of words can be interpreted tw...

We Preview the DOCTOR WHO Christmas Special: The Doctor, The Widow and The
2011-12-22 22:39:00 Every since the return of DOCTOR WHO in 2005, we have been given a bright, gaily wrapped Christmas present in the form of a special DOCTOR WHO episode celebrating the holiday season. In 2005, there was “The Christmas Invasion”; in 2006, there was “The Runaway Bride”; in 2007, there was “Voyage of the Damned”; in 2008, there was “The Next Doctor”; in 2009 there was “The End of Time”; in 2010, there was “A Christmas Carol” and this year, it is “The Doctor, The Widow and The Wardrobe.” Just like last year’s whimsical look at the meaning of Christmas in “A Christmas Carol,” this year’s episode is another chance to travel back into our childhoods and revisit a time when life was simpler, more colorful and full of magic. In 1938, after a young widow (Claire Skinner) comes to the aid of The Doctor (Matt Smith), he promises her a Christmas wish. Three years later, as the widow escapes into the country with her two children, seeking refuge f...

Bears vs. Packers game preview
2011-12-22 16:50:00 Two more games remain. The string, as they’re casually known. The Bears must play them out. And we loyal Chicago Bears fans must watch them do so. What’s saddest about this 2011 season is the fact that I spent about an hour Tuesday looking at the Bears 2012 opponents and getting excited about trips to... Read more »
NFL Week 16 Preview: Cleveland Browns @ Baltimore Ravens (-13 )
2011-12-22 08:07:00 Online Betting Overview Cleveland starting quarterback Colt McCoy looks like he will not be playing in this game. The concussion he sustained against the Steelers in week 15 is still lingering. But that does not mean that all is lost for the Browns in this game. This is the same team that pulled off upset wins over the New Orleans Saints and New England Patriots last season. It is true that former defensive coordinator Rob Ryan had a lot to do with those wins, but the point is that this team is capable of that. According to the price per head sports experts, the Browns are about as long of a shot as a team could be to win this game. But you should never count the Cleveland Browns out, and you should always take the points when the Browns play the Ravens. The Ravens have one of the best defensive units in the league. This defense may not be quite as dominating as the 2000 defense that won the Super Bowl, but it is very clo...

Culture-Con Preview: 8 Ideas For Enhancing Culture Via Positive Change
2011-12-16 15:58:00 In the nearly five years I’ve been at Dyn, I’ve seen a lot of change. We’ve gone from offering DNS and email services to home consumers and small businesses to supporting some of the biggest names on the web in our evolution into a true Internet IaaS leader. When you’re employee #16, you and everyone else wear a lot of hats. But as you grow, you start bringing in more specialists and you have to learn to give some of those hats away. If you’re not careful, you can isolate employees and leave them feeling undervalued. With the first Culture-Con coming up in January, I wanted to pass the microphone to Bob Faw from the Matchbox Group, Chief Ignition Officer and one of the co-organizers of the event, for some thoughts on how to move forward with change in a positive way. - Chris Widner, Director of Culture & Talent Development Bob Faw -- Matchbox Group Every change your company goes through is an opportunity to enhance the culture.

PREVIEW: Shop with meaning
2011-12-15 19:11:00 I’ve never been a big holiday shopper, but with Occupy Movements and income inequality still making headlines, I’m even less reluctant to spend money on goods made overseas or from large, multi-national corporations. Some employ good, hard-working Americans, but there’s a huge disconnect between executive pay, company policies, labor practices, tax payments, and workers’ rights. ...

FC Barcelona vs Real Madrid Clasico Preview
2011-12-09 20:58:00 Less than 24 hours is left for the start of the first edition of this season's "El Clasico" encounter in the La Liga. Usually this would have been the first meeting between the two giants of not only Spanish football, but World Football. But this year they have already met twice in the two legged Super Copa clash and Barca had emerged deserving winners at the time. Since Guardiola took over as manager, the first Clasico has always been played at Camp Nou. That gave Barca the edge to get to the front foot early on. This time FC Barcelona will be visiting Santiago Bernebeu for the first edition. The last time this has happened was in the 2006-07 season, when Barca went down 2-0 and eventually lost the League. But don't worry a year ago Ronaldinho inspired Barcelona mesmerised the Bernebeu crowd with a 3-0 victory and eventually won the League and the Champiosn league. This is Guardiola's third fourth visit to Santiago Bernebeu as a coach and he hasn't tasted defeat in any of those...
