Battlestar Galactica's Tricia Helfer Is The Black Cat!
The promo frenzy for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull kicks into high gear this week, with Shia LaBoeuf appearing all over the airwaves to explain his Fonzie-esque character Mutt, plus a new Sci Fi Channel special about the real-life crystal skulls. But if you're not obsessing about Indy and his skulls, there's also the season finale of Smallville, which sees the departure of half the show's cast and creators in a hopefully explosive conclusion. And if that doesn't make you want to jump on your TiVo, then how about Battlestar Galactica's Tricia Helfer playing the Black Cat, Spider-Man's baddest girlfriend? More »

Play "Spot The Star Trek Actor" On This Week's Shows
It's when times are lean that you need a really good tracker — someone who can scout through the barren underbrush of the TV schedule and forage for programs worth watching.

We have two preview clips from Thursday's all-new Lost episode, plus looks ahead at new episodes of Smallville, Doctor Who, Sarah Jane, Spectacular Spider-Man, Transformers and Ben 10. Plus the Sci Fi Channel finally breaks the cheese-ometer. Listings, with minor spoilers only, below the fold. More »

Latest by fluxfire: Is Big Bang Theory Science Fiction? Maybe in the same ways the British comedy Spaced was. No it's not technically scifi, but there is a love and appreciation for all things scifi in it. more »

What Happens After The Oceanic Six Get Home?
Every day, we scan through reams of spoilers for Gossip Girl (someone's gay) and Grey's Anatomy (someone is having a relationship, or not) just to find a few precious nuggets of scifi spoilerage. Today's results include a ton of details on the filming of the end of Lost season four, plus two new clips and some new stills. We found out what to expect from the second and third movies in the Iron Man trilogy (yes, already.) We have some minor spoilers for X-Files 2 and Battlestar Galactica. There are tons of pics from Indiana Jones and Spectacular Spider-Man. Plus, if you've actually been watching Kyle XY (like I have) there's a spoiler that will make you blow some fuses.

The Color That Scares Spider-Man
Are you an obsessive compulsive Spider-Man fan who's read every Spider-comic ten times — even the gothy MacFarlane issues? Rest assured that Victor Cook, producer of the Spectacular Spider-Man Saturday morning cartoon, has still obsessed about Spider-Man more than you have. In a new interview, he shows off a detail-oriented focus on the art and mythos of the classic Spidey comics that will either make you excited to view his handiwork — or flee in terror. More »

Battlestar Galactica Is Back... And We Have A Plan
There's pretty much only one big science fiction show on the schedule for this week: the long-awaited return of Battlestar Galactica on Sci Fi. And the other big news of the week is Spike's huge Star Wars marathon, including the first time one of the prequels has ever been televised. But there's some other worthwhile stuff going on, including a decent Torchwood, the end of Legion of Superheroes, and a major turning point for the animated Transformers. Oh, and you can learn how to live to be 150. What can television not do for us? Minor spoilers ahead. More »

TV This Week: Chief Tyrol Invades Smallville
It's your last chance to get to know Kyle XY this week, and your second-to-last chance to discover Jericho before it goes away, maybe forever. Those both happen to be shows that I really disliked when they started, and they've both grown on me a lot. Meanwhile, Smallville features Chief Tyrol in full crazoid mode, and Lost has a script co-written by Brian K. Vaughan (Y: The Last Man). Click through for clips and full listings. More »
