[Editor’s Note: The following review contains spoilers for “Archer: Into the Cold,” the “Archer” finale.]
Much like “Wonka” held back its ace in the hole for a majority of the movie, “Archer: Into the Cold” — the long-awaited series finale of Adam Reed’s long-running satiric espionage sitcom — saves one of its best-ever creations for last.
Actually, I’m a little mad about it. How dare we get only a precious few minutes with Tiny Barry™, the ideal form of so many forms taken by Archer’s one-time rival agent, turned villainous cyborg, turned computerized consciousness who was living inside the office refrigerator to start the series finale? How dare he not get a full season to stretch out those tiny little legs, with a special episode told from Tiny Barry’s doll-sized point of view? How dare Krieger (Lucky Yates) keep a “sentient robot in defiance of god” under wraps all these years, when it’s this teensy and this adorable and has...

Plot: With the Un voting to outlaw independent spy agencies, Archer and the gang have to work outside the law to save the world from an unlikely duo in this epic series finale event.
Review: Back in October, the eighth and final episode of Archer’s fourteenth season debuted, seemingly bringing the animated series to a close. But, at the end of the episode, it was revealed that a three-part series finale subtitled Into The Cold would premiere in December. As a movie-length closer to the long-running espionage comedy, Archer: Into the Cold is a fitting wrap-up to the adventures of the private spy agency known for mucking up international affairs for over a decade. With the return of some characters from prior years and delivering a goodbye for the main ensemble, Archer: Into The Cold is a far more satisfying end to the series than we got just a couple of months ago.

The creative forces behind Come to Daddy clearly take delight in shocking their audience. The film, a mix of comedy, horror, and thriller, seeks to upend expectations at all turns. Sometimes they succeed, while at other times, they fall a little bit short. The end result is a unique little movie, one that aims high with its genre ambitions. If it doesn’t quite reach the intended heights, there’s still a devilish streak of wit throughout that makes it more than just a garden variety independent flick. Having been on the festival circuit for nearly a year (beginning last April at the Tribeca Film Festival), it’s finally hitting screens this weekend and is worth a look. The movie is a mix, as mentioned above, of comedy, horror, and thriller. For Norval Greenwood (Elijah Wood), life has been one full of privilege, but ultimately one lacking in happiness. Deep...

For his feature film directorial debut, long-time producer Ant Timpson explores the themes of generational division and the dangers of family secrets with his madcap caper Come to Daddy that fits perfectly in Timpson’s quirktastic oeuvre of projects.
Starring Elijah Wood, Come to Daddy is centered around 30-something man-child Norval (Wood), who was beckoned to the home of his estranged father (Stephen McHattie) by letter, unsure of just why his absentee pops has decided to reach out now after all these years. Once he arrives, his father proves himself to be a callous and insensitive lush, which directly conflicts with Norval’s own emotionally driven tendencies. Things come to a head between the father and son, which is where Come to Daddy’s narrative takes a surprising left turn, and to say more about the story would be a huge disservice to the film. But essentially, what it all...

Fans of Archer don't have to worry about their TV show being cancelled for awhile. It was renewed for a seventh season back in March 2014. Will the ratings for this animated comedy rise in season six or, will they fall? Could it get another early renewal? Stay tuned.

The sitcom also features the voices of Aisha Tyler, Jessica Walter, Chris Parnell, Judy Greer, Amber Nash, Lucky Yates, Adam Reed, George Coe, and Ona Grauer.

It's me, Tom Foster, we worked together at Nasa.
Everybody has their skills. This family has more than their share. Or should I say, almost-family. Tom (Esai Morales) is an ex-nasa scientist with a specialty in chemistry and he’s engaged to Lt. Cmdr. Emma Peterson (Ona Grauer), the Navy liaison to the Disaster Management Agency. Tom has moved to Seattle with his son Wyatt (Jared Abrahamson) to be with her, but Wyatt is constantly fighting with Emma’s daughter Chloe (MacKenzie Porter) and might scupper the whole thing. Then an unidentified object, falling from the sky begins to hurtle towards Seattle. Shot down by a interceptor missile, two pieces of debris still hit Seattle causing some odd phenomena. That brings in the Dma, led by Jacob Stinson (Martin Cummins), who has some serious power issues with Bob Jefroe (Matty Finochio) as second-in-command. Smoke coming from the landing sites sparks...

Remember how many disaster flicks there were back in 2012 due to that whole Mayan thing? Well, one of them, Seattle Superstorm, is hitting VOD and DVD on August 27, 2013, and we have its new official trailer right here.
The film, which aired on Syfy in March of 2012, was directed by Jason Bourque and written by David Ray and Jeff Renfroe.
Synopsis:
A suspicious object is shot down over the waters of the Pacific Northwest, causing strong turbulence and ominous clouds that turn violently into a massive storm. As the heavy rains and hurricane-force winds wreak havoc in the city of Seattle, Major Emma Peterson (Ona Grauer; "V," "Stargate Universe") is handed the task of identifying the threat and securing the city, while trying to keep her own kids safe.
As the weather turns even more deadly, she and her fiancé, scientist Tom Reynolds (Esai Morales; "Caprica," "24"), must work together to rescue...

Here’s your first look at Sharlto Copley in “Elysium”. He plays the film’s bad guy Kruger, and from the looks of him, Kruger is one man you don’t wanna mess with in a dark alley. Then again, with a name like Kruger, I guess he better be dangerous looking. Wouldn’t it be ironic if there was a really sweet, nice guy name Kruger? Blow your mind, right? Anyways. First look at Copley, reuniting with his “District 9″ writer/director Neill Blomkamp in the Matt Damon-fronted “Elysium”, due out later next year. Also starring odie Foster, William Fichtner, Michael Shanks, Diego Luna, Alice Braga, Faran Tahir, Carly Pope, Talisa Soto, Ona Grauer, and Terry Chen.

A trio of sci-fi movie goodness for you this post-Christmas Day. The first features our first look at Sharlto Copley in Neill Blomkamp’s latest sci-fi-as-allegory flick “Elysium”, this time taking on the whole “the 1% have everything, while the 99% have nothing” angle. Having read the script, this thing is like getting hit in the face with a sledgehammer. It is not exactly subtle stuff. Here’s Copley playing the film’s villain, an evil looking fellow by the name of Kruger. Matt Damon, of course, stars as our oppressed hero. Also starring Jodie Foster, William Fichtner, Michael Shanks, Diego Luna, Alice Braga, Faran Tahir, Carly Pope, Talisa Soto, Ona Grauer, and Terry Chen, “Elysium” arrives August 9, 2013. Meanwhile, here are four new looks at the main men of J.J. Abrams’ “Star Trek Into Darkness”, featuring Benedict Cumberbatch and Chris Pine as Empire Magazine’s latest cover boys and a new pic...

Matt Damon continues to be ready for battle in a new pic from his upcoming sci-fi epic “Elysium”, directed by “District 9′s” Neill Blomkamp. It looks like a variation of an earlier official shot of Damon from the movie taht we’ve already seen earlier. Set in the year 2159, where the very wealthy lives on a man-made space station while the rest of population reside on a ruined Earth, a man takes on a mission that could bring equality to the polarized worlds. The movie co-stars Jodie Foster, William Fichtner, Michael Shanks, Diego Luna, Sharlto Copley, Alice Braga, Faran Tahir, Carly Pope, Talisa Soto, Ona Grauer, Terry Chen, and saves the world of inequality August 9,...

Esai Morales stars in Seattle Superstorm, which airs tonight at 9 pm on Syfy. Sci Fi Talk has a Q&A with him and his cast mates:
What’s it like for you these days to step into a movie like this, like a fun movie, as compared to the seriousness of a world like Caprica?
Esai Morales: Yes, well you know I enjoyed my time with the folks at Syfy and I felt I was safe enough there. So yes, it’s a different animal. I mean Caprica was, one episode was probably more than the budget of this whole piece. Again, I don’t know, but it’s just a different scale. So what you have to do is you play with your imagination. You literally have fun. I mean for me the fact that Caprica isn’t there anymore and the fact that I have a young child,...

Just a few updates to end the week.
Blood and Chrome trailer was shown at the BSG panel at WonderCon this weekend. Hero Complex has a report from the panel with Kevin Grazier. Here is a description of the trailer (no, it's not available anywhere yet):
At the end of his talk, Grazier screened a trailer for the upcoming “Battlestar Galactica: Blood and Chrome,” a two-hour television film which is set in the 10th year of the First Cylon War. Edited at rapid-cutting pace to Trent Reznor and Karen O’s cover of “Immigrant Song” for “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” – which was actually quite fitting with images of ice-covered planets and (space)ships – the trailer ended with title cards flashing the words “It’s time for a SyFy game-changer.”Still no official word on what Blood and Chrome is (a TV film or a pilot) even though...

Just when you couldn’t hate Barry (Dave Willis), the psychotic Kgb cyborg soiled the offices of Isis again, but this time he might have gone too far. Sterling (H. Jon Benjamin) got a surprise of mammoth proportions and once that was revealed, everything got derailed.
Sterling: I hate surprises, except surprise fellatio, that I like–the non-Midnight Cowboy kind.
Who knows what Kreiger (Lucky Yates) did to resurrect Sterling’s fallen Katya (Ona Grauer)– Do we really want to know? That’s a rhetorical question. Please don’t answer that. When we got a brief and horrifying tour of Krieger’s place, some sick part of me wanted to spend the entire episode there (don’t judge me). I know I’ve probably watched Se7en too much but “Skin Game” got off to a terrific start. From the room decorated in air fresheners to a stupidly funny...

When ABC opted to give "V" a short season this year, execs promised us that each episode would be packed with quality action -- and they were right. With only one episode left in Season 2, we've all got one question on our minds: Will there be a Season 3?
Series star Scott Wolf stopped by Ktla Studios and he says that the team behind the show believes chances are very good. "Ultimately there are questions that will be answered in the finale, but it is not serving as a series end," he says. "Our story is not complete. We are anticipating a third season of the show."
Unfortunately, Wolf confirms that even with a potential Season 3, we won't be seeing one of our favorite characters next year. "There are huge goings-on, huge reversals of fortune for most of the main characters, and like i said, at least one main character who...

This news doesn't come as a surprise. CBS has pulled their new Saturday night drama, The Bridge, after just three episodes. Though it's been cancelled in the Us, the TV show will continue.
The Bridge follows Frank Leo (Aaron Douglas), a charismatic cop who's voted unanimously to become the leader of the police union. He ends up fighting crime on the streets while also battling corruption on the force. The series features Douglas, Frank Cassini, Michael Murphy, Ona Grauer, Paul Popowich, and Theresa Joy.
The TV show debuted on Saturday, July 10th with two episodes. Per the overnights, the first episode attracted a tiny 0.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic and just 2.98 million viewers. It was easily beaten by repeats of Cops and America's Funniest Home Videos.
The second episode of The Bridge drew a 0.5 rating in the demo...

Chicago – CBS found success with the Canadian import “Flashpoint” in 2008 and they’ve opened international trading routes again in an attempt to replicate it with the dark cop drama “The Bridge,” debuting tonight, July 10th, 2010 at 7pm Cst. It’s a better show than “Flashpoint” that still suffers from a weak supporting cast and cliched dialogue, but its flaws are not deep enough to dissuade viewers in a season when there’s not a lot of competition.
TV Rating: 3.0/5.0
“The Bridge” is one of those cop shows where the drama within the police department is more of the focus than crime on the street not unlike “The Shield” or “The Wire” (although this show isn’t nearly as sophisticated as either of those modern classics). Internal investigations, power struggles, police unions, corrupt cops — “The Bridge” wants you to care about the men (and women) with the badges more than the...

As it revealed its 2010 fall primetime line-up essentially constituted of American TV series and reality shows (shame!), CTV, a Canadian private TV network, announced that it will renew its five original TV series for another season. As a matter of fact, the crime TV series The Bridge will get a second season.
The TV series is based on the experience of Craig Bromell, the controversial former head of the Toronto Police’s union. We follow Frank Leo (Aaron Douglas), a street cop, is elected by his colleagues as the head of the police union. As he fights criminals, Frank tries to eliminate the corruption within the Toronto police department from top to bottom. He does that in order to protect his colleagues and the society.

After a Canadian premiere on the TV network CTV, the Canadian TV series The Bridge will finally arrive in the USA. In fact, the show will premiere July 10 on CBS, an American TV network, at 8 Pm.
The TV series is loosely based on the experience of Craig Bromell, the former head of the Toronto Police union. We follow Frank Leo (Aaron Douglas), a street cop who is tired to see that the union's bark is worse than its bite while facing "the brass". Because his colleague finds him charismatic and that he organized a massive walk-out, Frank is elected as the head of the police's union.
As a head of the union, Frank promises that the union will always be there for the cops and that the whole police force will be cleaned from the top to the bottom. In his quest, Frank will be helped by Abby St-James (Ona Grauer), a beautiful lawyer,...

Although The Bridge was supposed to be simulcasted on CTV (in Canada) and CBS (in the USA), CTV decided to go on its own. As a result of that, this one-hour drama will have a two-hour premiere after the Vancouver Olympic Games on March 5, 2010 at 9 Pm. Afterwards, The Bridge will move to its regular timeslot at 10 Pm on March 12.
After the rank and file unanimously vote tough and dedicated street cop Frank Leo (Aaron Douglas) into office as the police union’s dynamic leader, he begins his quest to put street cops first and clean up the force from the ground up as he battles criminals on the street, police department brass and corruption in the ranks. But the old boys’ network running the police force and the city’s self-serving politicians are not about to sit idly by while a former street cop makes up his own rules. Frank...
