Great New Sci-fi


I checked out that new science fiction show on Fox, Terra Nova. I'm hooked. So far, it's the top of my list of this year's new shows. The show centers on the Shannons, an ordinary family from 2149 when the planet is dying who are transported back 85 million years to prehistoric Earth where they join Terra Nova, a colony of humans with a second chance to build a civilization.

I love the concept and it's actually keeping my interest. I sat down to watch and work on some models at the same time and I found myself putting my work aside to focus on the show. I guess you could say the 21st century's answer to the old Land of the Lost franchise, but a lot less cheesy. Great characters, decent special effects and with Spielberg behind the scenes and Brannon Braga, involved - how can you go wrong?!

Sci Fi Couch Potato


I've noticed that there has been a lack of quality science fiction on television (or in the movies) of late. I think the last sci fi film that I saw was the most recent Predators. I'm a true sci fi fan in the sense, that I like almost everything that is sci fi related. So anyway, I've been jones-in' for some good sci fi, so I decided to start re-watching the Stargate Atlantis series. Now there was entertainment. I'm just sorry it only lasted five seasons. But I need to get my fix somehow, so I think I'll pull a late-nighter and watch a few episodes.

Stargate Universe


I've been tuning into the new Stargate Universe show on Syfy. It's definitely different than it's predecessors. Much darker and more serious than the others. While it's taking some getting used to, I do like what I've seen so far. Although, they can use a little more action. Anybody else see the show yet? I did find tonight's episode, 'Light' pretty intense. Well written.

Wow - Friday AGAIN!



Okay, this one's for all of the old timers out there. I remember being in 7th and 8th grade, circa 1978-1979. I was completely addicted to Battlestar Galactica. This, my friends, is one of the reasons why. I had such a crush on Maren Jensen, it wasn't even funny. My fondest wish was to be squeezed into a Viper cockpit with this honey. In my mind, one of the true classic beauties of Sci Fi. Enjoy!

Man, I love Fridays!


I was never a follower of Dr. Who - but now I think I may watch a few episodes.

Happy Friday!

Okay, so I've been really, really, really busy, but this weekend - for sure I'll have something up. Promise. But until then, take a gander at Brandy Ledford from Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda series.

Another Friday, Another Sci-fi Hot Chick


Crap, I almost forgot that it was Friday. Well, you know what that means....

This week is Tricia Helfer, from Sci-fi's Battlestar Galactica. It really sucks that they're about half a dozen episodes left.

Sci Fi Chick Friday


It's Friday and it's time to honor the beautiful women of sci fi, so I'm introducing a new series here at Kantor Base, call Sci Fi Chick Friday. And to start it all off and to honor what I hope will be a new era for this great nation, we'll start off with one of my personal favorites. Enjoy!

End of an era


This past weekend was a dark day in my life. Friday night, I recorded the Series Finale of Stargate Atlantis. Atlantis was the last pure science fiction series still airing on television. After 5 seasons, the show is being canceled. Spinoff of the longest running Sci-Fi show in history (Stargate: SG-1), a legend in Sci-Fi has come to an end. Man, am I bummed. Friday nights won't be the same.
