From Kelly Townsend of The TV Junkies:

Link: Dark Matter: Joseph Mallozzi talks “Isn’t That a Paradox?”
“I don’t know what it is about the comedy. I don’t know if I could write a comedy, but I enjoy writing comic episodes within a non-comic series. It’s just fun putting characters in those situations. As I mentioned, it was an episode I had to write because the planned episode was not going to fly, but it came easily enough.” Continue reading.

From Dana Gee of The Province:

Link: Workaholic Vancouver native Kelly McCormack embraces digital weirdness
McCormack joined the cast of the hit Space/Syfy series Killjoys. She is on board for new Comedy Central/CBC series Crawford, directed by Mike Clattenburg (Trailer Park Boys). She is in the digital original series How to Buy a Baby (CBC), and is back for season three of the digital series That’s My DJ.

At this very moment you can go online and see her in action in the hilariously weird CBC digital series The Neddeaus of Duqesne Island. McCormack also produces the series under her Floyder Films banner. Continue reading.

From Molly Freeman of Screenrant:

Link: How Wynonna Earp Became One of the Most Feminist Sci-Fi Shows on TV
Midway through its second season, Wynonna Earp is tackling a storyline that action-based series – let alone any based on comic books – rarely showcase: the titular heroine getting pregnant, dealing with it, and still kicking butt. Now, showrunner and executive producer Andras discusses the series’ feminist leanings. Continue reading. 

From Morgan Glennon of Buddy TV:

Link: ‘Wynonna Earp’ Interviews: Melanie Scrofano and Emily Andras Talk Creating a Pregnant Heroine
“We see a woman that’s like, ‘Don’t tell me what I can and can’t do. I will let you know what I can and can’t do. I think you get to see that from me, Melanie, but also from Wynonna. She’s like ‘I will tell you when I’m done, don’t take this away from me. I’ve got this.'” Continue reading.

From Rebecca Murray of Showbiz Junkies:

Link: ‘Wynonna Earp’ Season 2: Dominique Provost-Chalkley and Katherine Barrell Talk Wayhaught and the Baby
“I think definitely with the addition of our new Earper baby on the way, things are just getting a lot more dangerous. I think there’s a sense among all the characters that the stakes got so high so fast, especially now that we all know. So, there’s this sense of when you’re caring for yourself and grownups it’s one thing, but when you’re caring for an unborn child and the safety of that child it’s another. I feel like the last final half of the second season just got super high stakes, super dangerous and everyone’s kind of on hyper hyper alert.” Continue reading.

From Kat Jetson of The Hollywood Reporter:

Link: How Syfy’s ‘Wynonna Earp’ Is Paying Homage to ‘Buffy’
When I was pitching Wynonna Earp I said that it was Buffy meets Justified. I truly believe Buffy is the beloved cult hit because it deserves to be. It speaks volumes that 20 years have gone by and we’re still talking about that show. People see it for what it was, which is groundbreaking. I can’t even pretend that Buffy didn’t influence me, but I don’t want to say Wynonna is derivative. I hope it’s not. Joss really taught me what an action heroine could be, which is a completely three-dimensional girl or woman with all those complications who can also kick butt. Continue reading.

Link: Killjoys’ Mayko Nguyen on what makes Delle Seyah the perfect ally for Aneela

From Bridget Liszewski of The TV Junkies:

Link: Killjoys’ Mayko Nguyen on what makes Delle Seyah the perfect ally for Aneela
” I think Aneela has been alone a lot of her life, and as much as she’s got this insanity about her, she’s very vulnerable and I think a bit lost. From Delle Seyah’s vantage point Aneela’s very lonely and, while she has people around her, they are all her minions, and she has no one she can be friends with. Delle Seyah is a bit more on her level and my guess is that she just needs a friend. Delle Seyah is somebody who is a similar creature.” Continue reading.

Link: The Baronesses Are Coming! And Filling a Comedy Gender Gap

From Karina Onstad of The New York Times:

Link: The Baronesses Are Coming! And Filling a Comedy Gender Gap
At home, “Baroness Von Sketch Show” has cleaned up at the Canadian Screen Awards and earned comparisons to Canada’s last big sketch comedy export, the 1990s series “The Kids in the Hall.” One major difference: “Baroness” is created by women (not men who often dress up as women) and almost entirely written and directed by women, too. Continue reading.
