I know we have lots of Merlin fans out there, and and season 4 has warmed it's way into our hearts this winter and it's been a very exciting season. We've lead into the finale with one half of a 2-parter and now it all comes down to the final episode of the season:

Merlin Season 4 Finale
Saturday March 31, 2012 at 8pm EST on Space

I've been very impressed with the way the show feels so true to the Arthurian tales, but also brings smart surprizes along the way. I know I'll be watching to see how they wrap up Season 4!

Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files - Season 2C on Space starting April 25, 2012

Photobucket

Great news for Canadian Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files fans. Season 2C of Fact or Faked Paranormal Files is coming to Space starting Wednesday April 25, 2012! This means we are very closely aligned to the US air date as it returns to SyFy on Tuesday April 17, 2012. Although it's a week apart, it's a huge improvement over the months that we've had to wait in the past, and it means that the break in between 2B and 2C feels very short as we wound down with Season 2B back in mid-February.

I couldn't be happier! It will be so nice not to have to wait so long for new episodes, especially as Suzie & I have been fans of the show from the very first episode. I am curious that it's being called 2C though, as on Wikipedia it's called Season 3. But I'll take new episodes, regardless of what they are called!

Mark your paranormal calender for April 25, 2012 for the return of Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files on Space! And a big thank you Space for bring us the next season of Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files so quickly!

Paranormal Pick of the Week: Lost Girl Season 2 Finale

Photobucket

All the fae-fans know what will be THE hot ticket this week:

Lost Girl Season 2 Finale
Sunday April 1, 2012 at 9pm EST (plus pre-show at 8pm!)

There are certainly opportunities to get your fae on to enjoy the fae-nile, including season finale party at The Firkin on King for those in Toronto (with some pretty amazing guests expected including Paul Amos who plays Vex!) and of course there is the Lost Girl Finale Pre-Show which will air on Showcase at 8pm EST (1 hour pre-finale!). I'm stoked for the finale as this season has been a ton of fun and they've transitioned well from 13 episodes in Season 1 to a whooping 22 episodes in season 2; I just can't believe it's gone so fast.

Any new to Hexed Lost Girl fans, check out our archives of podcasts & posts discussing Lost Girl here. We've talked about *every* episode.

Also awesome this week:
  • Merlin Season 4 Finale (Saturday March 31, 2012 at 8pm EST on Space) I've quite enjoyed this season on Merlin and am looking forward to seeing where they go (or end up) with this finale. Lots of magic kicking around, and that's a good thing!
  • Game of Thrones Season 2 Premiere (Sunday April 1, 2012 at 9pm EST on HBO Canada) I still haven't watched Season 1 of Game of Thrones yet, and that's only because I haven't read the book(s) yet. I like to do things in that order, but given it's been a year and I haven't maybe I should just dive in. But then again, I don't actually *have* HBO Canada at the moment. I'll get to it... one day but I know the super-fans out there are going to be super-excited this week!

Billy Burke Joins The Cast of Revolution

Are you excited about the new J.J. Abrams & Erick Kripke show, Revolution? Need a memory jogger? We chatted about it on Ep 93 of Hexed with the slew of Paranormal-Inclined 2012 TV Pilots and this one is described as: "Follows a group of characters struggling to survive and reunite with loved ones in a world where all forms of energy have mysteriously ceased to exist."

Someone who has joined that group of folks trying to survive is Billy Burke (source: TV Line) of Twilight & Drive Angry has joined the cast and I for one am very excited as I am a big fan. Suzie & I even talked about Revolution all the way back in September 2011 when the only info available was "NBC Orders 'Epic Adventure Thriller' From Supernatural Creator Eric Kripke and J.J. Abrams" and when more info was released we took a pretty ethereal interpretation on the description (like people appear as spirits or energy), but it appears that it's more like there just isn't any fuel. Ha. So, that makes it have a possible survivalist, disaster and/or post-apocalyptic feel. We'll keep following it an see how it continues to unfold.

If you are a fan of Billy Burke (& general Twi-ness), I've also chatted about this casting news over at Before the Dawn were we keep tabs on the Twi-ness including what the actors are up to. Isn't in great when the awesome overlaps?

Pick of the Week: Outcasts Marathon

Photobucket
Image from Outcasts Series Premiere

This week was a bit of a challenge for what to pick of the week, which can happen with so much awesome to go around, but I went for a marathon for a science fiction that aired on Space last summer and one that Suzie & I did chat about on occasion:

Outcasts Marathon
Sunday March 25, 2012 from 11AM - 9PM EST on Space

I'm quite excited for this as I didn't watch all of it last year (I believe it was right around the move), so I have no idea what happened! I enjoyed the premiere and was curious to see where it went, and Sunday is a good time to find out!

Here is a series synopsis: "Seeking the chance to build a better future, a group of courageous pioneers departs Earth for Carpathia, a newly discovered planet in a distant galaxy. Led by President Richard Tate and his core team of Stella, Cass and Fleur, the pioneers settle in the town of Forthaven, creating a society there alongside expeditionaries Mitchell and Jack. Having embraced all the challenges that come with forging a new beginning, the townspeople work hard to preserve what they've built on Carpathia, and even as they long for those left behind, there is optimism about the future. But while they try to learn from mistakes made on Earth, there is no avoiding the human pitfalls of love, greed, lust and loss."

New Show Alert: Monster Man Starts Tonight on Space!

Photobucket

Monster Man debuts on Space tonight at 11pm EST! It's a documentary series following creature prop expert Cleve Hall, and this first episode airs right after the Face Off season 2 finale which is a great pairing and I know I'm going to check it out.

Check out more details from the media release:
"Toronto, ON (March 9, 2012) – Monster-making-movie-magic comes alive when the documentary series MONSTER MAN debuts Wednesday, March 14 at 11 p.m. ET, immediately following the second season finale of FACE OFF at 10 p.m. ET on SPACE and SPACE HD. Starring hearse-driving, creature prop expert Cleve Hall, MONSTER MAN goes behind the scenes of one of Hollywood’s most respected practical effects workshops, SOTA FX, to witness the creation of bizarre beings and out-of-this world aliens. Following the series debut, MONSTER MAN moves to its regular timeslot, Wednesdays at 10 p.m. ET, beginning March 21.

Alongside Cleve are daughters Constance and Elora Hall, ex-wife Sonja Maddox-Hall, best friends Roy Knyrim and Johnny Saiko and office manager Cindy Miller. Only the horrifying monsters they build match the craziness of this extremely talented family. For more than 30 years, when studios want a bizarre creature or out-of-this world alien, they turn to Cleve Hall and team. Full episodes of MONSTER MAN madness are available following the television broadcast at spacecast.com.

**Media Note** - Photography for MONSTER MAN available online at www.bellmediapr.ca/space.

Viewers can also check out Cleve’s horror handiwork in action with the SPACE movie premiere of 2-HEADED SHARK ATTACK, coming later this spring.

The premiere episode of MONSTER MAN, “Seeing Double,” introduces the very colourful cast of characters from SOTA FX, as Cleve and the team face a dual challenge. Famed Friday the 13th director Sean Cunningham demands that Cleve and company conjure up a set of conjoined twins that tear apart for his next feature film. If building this complex appliance for an A-lister isn’t enough, creature feature makers at famed The Asylum film studio ask Cleve to build a terrorizing two-headed shark. To find inspiration Clive literally swims in shark-infested waters.

Monster-specialist Cleve Hall has been in the prop design game since he was a teenager. Hall has created masterpieces for countless big budget flicks for Paramount Pictures, DreamWorks, Warner Bros and Disney, including favorites How to Train Your Dragon, Sharktopus, Ed Wood and Pee Wee's Big Adventure. Hall has also lent his talent to numerous television programs including YO GABBA GABBA, for which he received an Emmy® Award-nomination. Additionally, he has worked with rock bands including KISS, creating Gene Simmons' Demon Armor, Insane Clown Posse, Alice Cooper, Tenacious D and DEVO.

Executive Producers are Scott Gurney and Deirdre Gurney for Gurney Productions."

Monster Man debuts on Space of Wednesday March 14, 2012 at 11PM EST & then will air Wednesday at 10pm EST.

The make-up reality series is down to it's final three artists. Who will take the glory? Only a few more days until we find out, which is what makes it this weeks Paranormal Pick of the Week:

Face Off Season 2 Finale
Wednesday March 14, 2012 at 10pm EST on Space Channel

They've created dino-hybrids, played in the land of Burton, travelled to Oz, braved bare skin and created make up that can survive underwater. It's been an amazing season and beautifully crafted creations and I've had a blast seeing everyone's creativity at play. Good luck to the final 3 finalist; I can't wait to see what or who they create this week.

Primeval New World Begins Production

Photobucket Photobucket
Images: Niall Matter as Zane Donovan in Eureka / Sara Canning as Jenna on The Vampire Diaries

We've got some news about the new Canadian show Primeval New World, a spin off of the UK Primeval. The show has started production and I'm very excited to share cast & crew news.

Primeval New World will star:

  • Niall Matter as Evan Cross and enterprising inventor and visionary hero. Niall Matter is new to me but he played Zane Donovan on Eureka (pictured above), Greg on the new and Rick on the new Melrose Place
  • Sara Canning as Dylan Weir, predator attack expert and specialist in animal behavior. Hexed listeners will certainly know Sara Canning as she played Aunt Jenna from The Vampire Diaries (pictured above) and recently guest starred on Supernatural Season 7 Episode 13.
  • Miranda Frigon as Ange Finch
  • Geoff Gustafson as Ken Leeds
  • Danny Rahim as Mac Rendell
  • Andrew-Lee Potts will guest star as Connor from the original series
Amanda Tapping, Andy Mikita, Martin Wood and Mike Roh are all lined up to direct Primeval New World. I've been watching lots of Sanctuary & Stargate SG-1 so some of those are very familiar names!

It's quite serendipitous for this information to come out as Suzie & I chatted about the show on last weeks episode of Hexed and included it in our 2012 Paranormal-Inclined 2012 TV Pilots, even though it's more than a pilot - it's confirmed for 13 episodes, one hour series.

It's still early days but the show does have an IMDb Page, information on it is scarce for the moment but with casting & crew details being revealed I'm sure it will start to build up. I'll keep my eye out for more resources as time goes on. I for one can't wait to see some pictures from the show itself.

Need more info? Check out the official media release:
"Vancouver, BC (March 7, 2012) – SPACE announced today that production is underway on the original mythological/action series PRIMEVAL: NEW WORLD. Set in Vancouver against the backdrop of the Pacific Northwest, the 13-episode, one-hour series is produced in association with Omni Film Productions (DEFYING GRAVITY, ARCTIC AIR). Also announced today is the stellar cast and crew for the new series, featuring top Canadian talent from hit SPACE programming such as SANCTUARY, STARGATE UNIVERSE, EUREKA, SUPERNATURAL and SMALLVILLE.

A North American spin-off of the hit U.K. television series, PRIMEVAL: NEW WORLD follows a specialized team of animal experts and scientists that investigates the appearance of temporal anomalies and battles both prehistoric and futuristic creatures. The cast features a bevy of established genre heavyweights such as Niall Matter (EUREKA, 90210, MELROSE PLACE) as the enterprising inventor and visionary hero Evan Cross, and Sara Canning (SUPERNATURAL, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES, SMALLVILLE) as Dylan Weir, predator attack expert and specialist in animal behavior. PRIMEVAL: NEW WORLD will also star Miranda Frigon (HEARTLAND) as Ange Finch, Geoff Gustafson (Hot Tub Time Machine) as Ken Leeds and Danny Rahim (EAST ENDERS) as Mac Rendell and guest starring Andrew-Lee Potts (PRIMEVAL) as Connor from the original series. Sci-fi queen Amanda Tapping (SANCTUARY), Andy Mikita (STARGATE UNIVERSE), Martin Wood (SANCTUARY) and Mike Rohl (SMALLVILLE) are all set to direct.

“SPACE is delighted to begin production on an exceptional homegrown series that is a counterpart to one of our channel’s most successful shows,” said Corrie Coe, Senior Vice-President, Independent Production, Bell Media. “We are thrilled to work with Omni Film and, with the support of Impossible Pictures, we know it will both capture the essence of the original U.K. series and bring a unique sensibility to the screen. Both existing fans of the PRIMEVAL brand and the SPACE audience alike are sure to be excited by the imminent crossover from the original series into the NEW WORLD.”

“This is the dream team for a series such as PRIMEVAL: NEW WORLD,” said Gabriela Schonbach, EP and Partner, Omni Film Productions. “Vancouver is the creative hub of visual effects for television, and we are the beneficiaries of a huge pool of talent in every area of TV production. This will be a terrific expansion to the PRIMEVAL world.”

“Omni Film have done a phenomenal job in bringing this series to life and we’re thrilled that they’re producing the spin-off. The stories are fantastic and Atmosphere’s work on the CGI is going to astound audiences around the globe,” said Katie Newman, Executive Producer for Impossible Pictures.

Based on the original series produced by Impossible Pictures, PRIMEVAL: NEW WORLD ’s creative team is led by Executive Producers Martin Wood (SANCTUARY, STARGATE: ATLANTIS) and Gillian Horvath (SANCTUARY, HIGHLANDER). The spin-off was created by Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens (STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE, SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE'S THE LOST WORLD) and will be written by Gillian Horvath, Peter Hume (CHARMED, FLASH GORDON), Jon Cooksey (THE COLLECTOR, THE OUTER LIMITS), Sarah Dodd (FLASHPOINT, ARCTIC AIR), Katherine Collins (ENDGAME), and Judith and Garfield Reeve-Stevens. The creatures will be created by three time Emmy® Award-nominated visual effects company Atmosphere (STARGATE, SMALLVILLE, PSYCH). Leading international entertainment company, Entertainment One, holds the international distribution rights. Rebecca DiPasquale is Production Executive for Bell Media. Corrie Coe is Senior Vice-President, Independent Production, Bell Media. Catherine McLeod is Vice-President, Specialty Channels, Bell Media. Sally Basmajian is Vice President & General Manager, Comedy and Drama, Bell Media. Phil King is President, CTV Programming and Sports."

Pick of the Week: Face Off Season 2 Marathon on Space Sunday March 11, 2012

Photobucket
Images: Welcome to the Jungle with Sam Cobb, Ve Neil & Marcel Banks

As someone who is currently adoring Season 2* of the reality series Face Off, this weeks Paranormal Pick of the Week couldn't be clearer:

Face Off Season 2 Marathon
Sunday March 11, 2012 from 12noon - 9pm on Space Channel

For the uninitiated, Face Off is a competition based reality series following make up artists and it's a fantastic look as seeing the creative mind at work. I almost didn't want to post about this as I haven't seen Season 1 therefore have no idea who wins (and hope I make it to Sunday without finding out!). Although the show is not paranormal itself, the world of make up certainly plays a huge part in many of our shows with creature creation (werewolves and vampires, oh my!) therefore is without a doubt my Paranormal Pick of the Week.

Also check out the season finale of Face Off next Wednesday March 14, 2012 at 10PM.

* Edit: Previously posted as a Season 1 marathon, this is actually a Season 2 marathon

Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files

With Season 2B of Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files recently wrapped airing on Space, I know some of us may be in going into withdrawl for out adventureous team of paranormal investigators & experimenters. To soften the blow, we are in luck as we'll have the chance to re-live all of Season 1 this Sunday March 4, 2012. Space is having a Season 1 marathon running from 9AM EST to 9PM EST and showing all 12 episodes of the first season Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files.

From UFOs to cryptids there is a little bit of everything in Season 1, including some of my favourite episodes! The combination of scientific method, paranormal discussions, photography, stunt work, travel and a spectacular cast make it one of these most fun shows out there. Suzie & I have been fans from the very first time it aired up here in Canada and have chatted about each and every episode here on Hexed: Sisterhood of the Supernatural. Here is a handy listing of Season 1 Discussions from our archives:
