From Bridget Liszewski of The TV Junkies:

“I just feel really proud of everyone to be honest. Everyone had a huge season this year. It wasn’t just one character or another, we all individually had a huge journey, and they all just mesh so nicely. Mel has had the biggest journey this season, and I almost see it as her season. The story we told was so beautiful and I’m just glad I could be by her side.” Continue reading.

Link: Killjoys: Kelly McCormack Brings Zeph To Energetic Life

From John Baker of Three If By Space:

Link: Killjoys: Kelly McCormack Brings Zeph To Energetic Life
“The writers and I talked about her being in a place where she’s a loner, probably ex-communicated from her upbringing in a way that hasn’t been established yet. Science is everything she has, she can trust it. Science has her back. Anything in the interpersonal realm is not really her forte. How does she trust these people above something that’s been a close friend to her?” Continue reading.

Killjoys: Hullen highjinks and pregnancy horrors

2 Comments

How will Dutch survive if she kills Aneela? That was the most pressing issue facing our heroes after last week’s instalment. “Heist, Heist, Baby” was one hells of a fun episode—Jelco was the best!—but things got serious when Dutch told D’avin about the situation involving Aneela and her fatal tie. D’avin says he’s cool with the plan, but we’re pretty sure he won’t keep her secret.

Which brings us to this week’s episode, “Reckoning Ball,” written by Adam Barken and directed by Peter Stebbings. Here’s what Space says about the main storylines:

John must confront his nemesis face-to-face when Delle Seyah suddenly arrives to set terms of war via parley. As D’avin and Dutch plan a counterattack, Alvis tries to ready everyone for war through the ritual of Reckoning.

And here are more goodies we can dole out after watching a screener.

Alvis is in the building
And he’s got one heck of a story to tell regarding the devil who came down to Arkyn. Some of his tale to an inquisitive young woman we’ve heard before, but Alvis reveals some key details and it’s always good to get a recap on the green, the Scarbacks’ role, and the legend of the 13 monks. The story is bookended in spectacular fashion in the closing moments of “Reckoning Ball.”

Delle Seyah pays a visit
Our heroic trio is shocked to find Delle Seyah alive (especially Johnny) and pregnant. Clearly, she’s there to fulfill the plan Aneela mentioned in “Heist, Heist, Baby,” but what does the parley involve? And who is in the most danger? And who or what is the father of her baby?

Zeph has an idea
And it just might give our team the win. You know, if it works.

Pippin Foster returns
Yup, Atticus Mitchell—who we haven’t seen since the Season 3 return, “Boondoggie”—is back. How the black market dealer factors into this week’s plot is as entertaining as it is ingenious. Pip’s scenes allow Barken to really skewer the sci-fi world to hilarious effect. Speaking of guest turns, a certain Hullen (and her abs) who got into Fancy’s head is back for more fun.

Fancy has a challenge for Turin
With war on the way, Fancy questions Turin’s loyalty to the cause.

Pree sings
And it’s friggin’ fantastic. (And about time, frankly.)

Killjoys airs Fridays at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on Space.

Link: Syfy’s Summer Series Are One Big, Gooey, Rollicking Good Time

From Alexis Gunderson of Paste:

Link: Syfy’s Summer Series Are One Big, Gooey, Rollicking Good Time
Lovretta has made the goo on Killjoys both extraterrestrial and sentient, a hyper-advanced, neurally-linked, nearly immortal parasitic alien organism that is slowly taking over what humanity exists in the series’ post-Earth world. Cold, calculating and singularly focused on their species’ dominance, the Hullen are the diametric opposite of the messy, loving human family at the series’ center: Dutch (Hannah John-Kamen), Johnny (Aaron Ashmore) and D’Avin (Luke Macfarlane).

Dark Matter: Is this the end?

1 Comment

If this is the series finale of Dark Matter, I’m going to be incredibly upset. Co-creators Joseph Mallozzi and Paul Mullie have created a wonderful world jam-packed with interesting characters with plenty of story still to tell. Mallozzi himself posted a blog entry stating Season 4 would be about aliens and androids, and I think that would be pretty bad-ass.

Alas, we’ve arrived at the Season 3 finale, “Nowhere to Go.” Written by Paul Mullie and directed by Ron Murphy, the Raza crew take their shot at ending the corporate war for good. But it won’t be easy. When is it ever easy with this group? Aside from revealing if Two executed Ryo or not, the instalment would, I hoped, catch up with Two, Five and Six reacting to what Ryo told them about their pasts (Two has a child! Five has a sister! Six was betrayed!). Three, meanwhile, doesn’t remember what Ryo told him—that Three was responsible for Sarah’s death—because his clone was killed and the knowledge died with it.

Here is Space’s official episode synopsis for “Nowhere to Go.”

The crew of the Raza unite Ferrous Corps’ enemies in an effort to end the corporate war.

And, as always, we’ve got a few non-spoiler treats to offer in advance.

Does Two execute Ryo?
Not telling. But you’ll find out less than two minutes into the broadcast.

The Raza amasses an army
It may be a little ragtag and not everyone trusts each other, but this motley crew could very well pull off the unthinkable. Right? Also, this episode features some truly incredible CGI.

Two’s attention strays
Remember when Boone kidnapped Two and took her to Ryo? Yeah, she does too and is itching to get a little revenge and has the opportunity. As usual, Three isn’t sure Two should be focusing on anything else aside from Ferrous Corp., especially when they make a major discovery about the galaxy’s bad guys. The discovery leads to a chat with Truffault, which means more airtime for Torri Higginson! Also guesting this week? Alexandra Ordolis in a key role and Ennis Esmer as “Beauty and Brains” Wexler. As for the mysterious Kryden, the Android finds a hard drive in the lock box Ryo talked about. The drive has a file named Kryden on it.

Who was in the photo Five was looking at last week?
We won’t ruin the surprise, but we’ve seen this person before. Also, Five delivers an impassioned plea to Six that had us dabbing our eyes.

The season finale of Dark Matter airs Friday at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT on Space.
