First Pics Of Starship Troopers' Armor And Heroes' Gun-Toting Ex-Blonde
There are a whole weekend's worth of spoilers to catch up on this morning, including some new pics of the filming of Heroes season three that include that gunshot we've heard so much about.

The Sci Fi Channel May Save Our Summer
We may mock the Sci Fi Channel, but its ratings are soaring — and soon, it'll be the only thing on television. The summer TV drought is almost upon us, even more unbearable than usual after a spring stunted by the writers' strike. So it's a good thing that Sci Fi just announced its summer schedule, including new episodes of Stargate: Atlantis (starting July 11) and Eureka (starting July 29). We'll do a summer TV guide later, but the other big highlight seems to be ABC Family's The Middle Man, which stars June 16. (And maybe new Kyle XY, but that hasn't been announced.) [MeeVee]
Eureka Avoids Dark Depression Trap of Shows Like "Full House"
Apparently fluffy Sci-Fi channel show Eureka, about a town of zany geniuses who do silly things, is just too dark. Even though every episode is packed with sappiness worthy of Full House, its creators have vowed to make it even "lighter" this season, packed with ultralite parodies of movies like Groundhog Day, according to Sci-Fi Wire (how do you parody a movie that is already a comedy?). Let this be a lesson to other scifi shows, such as Jericho, which could really have used a little lightening up. And how about 4400? Why not turn each episode of that into a "funny" parody of a movie like X-Men? That could have been both shows' tickets to renewal if only they'd known about this whole lightness thing. [Sci-Fi Wire]

Sex Secrets Of Hancock And Smallville's Clark Kent
Spoiler fiends are the truest afficionados of media SF. We're endlessly curious about everything: we actually care about drunken superhero Hancock's sex life, and exactly what Mulder and Scully's status is in X-Files 2. We pore over toy announcements to decipher the secret of Doctor Who's season finale, and read between the lines to dope out Smallville's next female villain. We scan every bit of new Speed Racer footage, and comb through hints about Heroes season three. We spy on Lost's finale shooting. We even pay attention to the reports about Eureka's next season and news about Star Wars books, that's how omnivorous we are. If it's a spoiler, we're interested. More »
Dark Swarm... Of B-List Actors
A swarm of deadly aliens has attacked the Earth and eaten up everyone and everything on the planet, except for a small group of survivors. What do you do? Make a B-movie of course. Dark Swarm is just that: a CGI alien-infested monster movie, complete with an infestation of B-grade scifi TV actors in its lone band of survivors. They include actors from Stargate, Babylon 5, and Eureka, which might just slate it for the direct to DVD shelves. At least Christopher Judge can finally play a role without having that giant thing that looks like an @ symbol branded onto his forehead. [IESB]
