Ep 143: Paranormal TV Oct 8 - 21, 2013


We are back! There are so many shows to enjoy we've decided to do a bit of a quick-per-series check in. We did decide to talk in depth on Ghost Mine which we are loving, and we also talk a lot about Face Off and Supernatural plus a special shout out to The Neighbors holiday episode. With Shannon still settling from the move and tons of spooky season stuff going on it's hard to pack it all in, but we do check in on series premieres of Alien Mysteries, The Tomorrow People, Atlantis and Once Upon a Time in Wonderland and although we haven't both necessarily seen all the eps, we do share if we've liked what we've seen or are planning on watching it. Of course we check in on our other regs of Vampire Diaries, Sleepy Hollow, Fangasm and more. We hope this gets you up to speed and then next episode will be a bit more normal. Although we always run long, don't we?

Of course we will be back next week to share thoughts on the Season 3 premiere of Grimm, and the series premieres of Dracula and Ravenswood as well as checking in on our regs. The ratings system didn't quite work it's way into this week but we may try it again. We were also thrilled with how many of your voted in our October poll, that's so much for sharing what you will be watching this spooky season.

Space Orders New Science Fiction Series: Killjoys



It's always exciting to hear about new science fiction series, and we have one that is actually set in space, following bounty hunters. Killjoys is slated for 2014 and is from Lost Girl writer/creator Michelle Lovretta. And it's That works for me! We will see 10 one-hour episodes of Killjoys in 2014 on Space. And it's Canadian. Woohoo!

Want to know more? Here are all the details from press release:

"Bell Media’s Space announced today from MIPCOM, the world’s annual entertainment content market in Cannes, France, that it has ordered its latest original scripted series KILLJOYS from leading Toronto and L.A.-based television production company Temple Street Productions (ORPHAN BLACK). The brainchild of writer and creator Michelle Lovretta (LOST GIRL), KILLJOYS is an action-packed adventure series following a trio of interplanetary bounty hunters as they navigate through political turmoil, questionable morality and complicated relationships. In development since 2012 as part of Bell Media’s Writer Only Drama Development program, Space has ordered 10, one-hour episodes for delivery in 2014. KILLJOYS is executive produced by Michelle Lovretta and Temple Street’s David Fortier and Ivan Schneeberg. Michelle Lovretta is represented by Jeff Alpern of The Alpern Group, who brokered the Bell Media and Temple Street deals.

“Our audience has come to expect the most imaginative and addictive programs from Space, and KILLJOYS is no exception,” said Catherine MacLeod, Senior Vice-President, Specialty Channels, Bell Media. “We look forward to building upon our partnership with Temple Street Productions with a whole new adventure.”

“We are delighted to be working with Michelle. She is exceptionally talented and this is a terrifically exciting project,” commented Ivan Schneeberg and David Fortier, Executive Producers and Co-Presidents of Temple Street Productions. “With having such a great experience working together on OPRHAN BLACK, we are thrilled to be teaming up again with Bell Media and Space on this new action-adventure series.”

In a distant Galaxy, the people of the planet Qresh have colonized their three moons, creating four stratified worlds, each defined along socio-economic lines and rife with social unrest. In this planetary unit, known as the Quad, a highly regulated group of bounty hunters, Killjoys, are licensed to pursue a vast range of warrants throughout the galaxy. Killjoys must follow strict rules, and there are harsh consequences for veering from their mantra: “The Warrant is All”. Killjoys are not allowed to take a personal or political side in their mission, which proves to be impossible and near fatal for Dutch. Dutch is a gorgeous, complicated and deadly Killjoy at the top of her game. Her partner, John the Bastard, is a peacemaker who hates conflict.

When John’s incredibly sexy and confident brother D’avin shows up to join the partners, the dysfunctional trio’s lives become intertwined. Confined to close quarters, Dutch, John, and D’avin quickly find themselves caught in a tricky love triangle.

KILLJOYS is produced by Temple Street Productions in association with Bell Media. Production Executives for Bell Media are Trish Williams and Rebecca DiPasquale. Corrie Coe is Senior Vice-President, Independent Production, Bell Media. Catherine McLeod is Senior Vice-President, Specialty Channels, Bell Media. Phil King is President, CTV Programming and Sports.
