Programming Note: Zero Hour Returns Saturday, But Not With the Pilot

14 June 2013 7:00 AM, PDT | ScifiMafia | See recent ScifiMafia news »

I was a big fan of ABC‘s Zero Hour when I previewed the pilot last summer, and was disappointed that they were holding it until midseason. When they finally did air it, they had made a few changes with a few scenes, but it was still the cool Indiana Jones-feeling, Nazi hating, twisty fun mysterious show I remembered, complete with creepy baby.

Of course I was horribly disappointed when ABC canceled the series after airing just three episodes, but over-the-moon happy when they announced that they would air all 13 episodes this summer.

Well that happy day is now finally nearly upon us, as Zero Hour returns Saturday at 8/7c with a two-hour premiere. But… it isn’t the pilot. In fact, they are picking up where they left off, and will be airing episodes four and five on Saturday. If you didn’t see the first three episodes when »

13 June 2013 2:28 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

MGM's planned reboot of the Tomb Raider movie franchise has taken a step closer to becoming  reality with the news that the studio has appointed screenwriter Marti Noxon to write the script for the video game adaptation, which is said to follow "archaeologist Lara Croft as she sets off on one of her international adventures."

Noxon is best known for her TV work, having written for the likes of Buffy the Vampire SlayerAngel, Prison Break, Grey's Anatomy, Mad Men and Glee, as well as penning the screenplays for the feature films Fright Night and I Am Number Four.

Lara Croft has featured in two movies to date, with Angelina Jolie starring in 2001's Lara Croft: Tomb Raider and the 2003 sequel Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life. While the second feature scraped enough in box office receipts for original studio Paramount to give the go ahead to a third, »

Greatest TV Pilots: Prison Break, series begins at a tenacious pace

8 June 2013 11:10 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »

Prison Break, Season 1, “Pilot”

Directed by Brett Ratner

Written by Paul Scheuring

Originally aired: August 29, 2005

This is a grand age of serialized TV drama where networks don’t shy away from airing shows with complex arcs. There’s a downside to this extended story line, however. Creators may plan out multiple seasons for their characters, but they slow the pace down to a crawl. The episodes feel their length, and the audience is just waiting for the rare moments when something happens. Glacially paced series like Flash Forward and The Killing had a good start but became nearly unbearable by mid-season. Thankfully, there are amazing shows that dive into the action like every episode is their last. Even long-running classic shows like Battlestar Galactica and Lost didn’t waste any time and delivered remarkable drama from the start. Another intriguing example is Prison Break, which premiered on Fox on August »

Stallone And Schwarzenegger Are Locked Up In New Escape Plan Poster

7 June 2013 5:56 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

We're a nostalgic bunch, aren't we? I'm speaking of movie geeks in general, but I suppose, more specifically, those of us who were around decades ago to worship action heroes like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone when they were in their prime. Predator. Rambo. The Terminator. Cliffhanger. Total Racall. Rocky - not action, ok, but still tough-guy Stallone so it counts - and much more recently, The Expendables. And because, why not? Over the Top and Kindergarten Cop. With those films in mind, Escape Plan has its own nostalgic draw, taking two iconic action stars and setting them up in a Prison Break-like scenario. Above is the new poster for the film, which shows stars Schwarzenegger and Stallone in separate cells, their backs to one another while they're locked up in "the most secure prison ever built," where "no one breaks out alone."

Robert De Niro and Al Pacino gave William Fichtner's career 'Heat'

3 June 2013 12:57 PM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »

William Fichtner knew what he was getting into when he signed up for the movie that first put Robert De Niro and Al Pacino together.

The Oscar-winning acting icons had been in different portions of "The Godfather Part II" -- which Fichtner cites as one of his favorite films -- but they shared space and dialogue in "Heat," writer-director Michael Mann's widely praised 1995 crime drama.

Fichtner was just starting a screen career that would come to include "The Perfect Storm," "Armageddon" and this summer's "The Lone Ranger" and "Elysium" ... but he has strong memories of being in "Heat" as a traitor tracked down by a vengeful career crook (De Niro).

"I had done a handful of movies, if that," he tells Zap2it, "and it wasn't lost on me that this was Pacino and De Niro's first time on screen together. What I remember about reading the script was »

Unaired Episodes of 666 Park Avenue Join Zero Hour This Summer

23 May 2013 4:00 PM, PDT | ScifiMafia | See recent ScifiMafia news »

We were so disappointed that Zero Hour wasn’t given more time to gain an audience, but at least were pleased when ABC announced that the entire first season would air this summer, including the first three episodes that aired in the winter.

Happily, ABC has now paired those episodes with unaired episodes from another gone-too-soon show from earlier this season, 666 Park Avenue, according to Deadline. As you know from the SciFiMafia.com Spring and Summer Primetime TV Schedule and the SciFiMafia.com Calendar, Zero Hour premieres Saturday, June 15 at 8/7c. 666 Park Avenue will join Zero Hour on June 22, following it at 9/8c and continuing weekly for three more weeks.

20 May 2013 7:46 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

Welcome to the "Arrested Development" Rewatch. Leading up to the release of Season 4, Zap2it will be taking a look back at the 53 episodes that made the show one of our most beloved TV comedies. We continue with episode 7 of Season 3, "Prison Break-In," which first aired Dec. 12, 2005. Watch the first three seasons of "Arrested Development" on Netflix. 

In "Prison Break-In," the Bluth Foundation plans its annual fundraising gala, this time in honor of graft-versus-host disorder. Not coincidentally, Tobias (David Cross) is suffering from the disease, thanks to his hair plants. Meanwhile, either Lucille (Jessica Walter) or Warden Gentiles (James Lipton) is working very hard to seduce the other. This is naturally all tied-up in yet another George Sr. (Jeffrey Tambor) escape attempt. Also, Buster (Tony Hale) has a turtle that eats pot and dies.
