SDCC2011: Missing Lost Clip Revealed At Comic-Con

Despite the bold steps that Lost took in redefining what was possible in primetime storytelling, there were always some doubts as to whether the events on the island were playing out according to the master plans of the writers, or whether they were just making stuff up as they go along.

Finally, over a year after the end of the series, Lost creators Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse revealed a lost Lost clip from the first season of the series during a panel at Comic-Con on Friday. Read More to see just how far back the plot goes…

TV Review: Torchwood: Miracle Day – “A New World” (Season Premiere)


by Matt Sernaker, Senior Editor

 

Miracles really do come true as Torchwood returns to television tonight with the premiere of Torchwood: Miracle Day. This newest incarnation of the Torchwood series is brought to us thanks to a new partnership between BBC and Starz.

 

Taking place after the incredible Children of Earth story, Torchwood’s existence has been wiped away without a trace. Gwen Cooper and her family have gone into hiding with the hopes of living a normal life. Captain Jack Harkness was last seen leaving the planet and heading out into space looking for a new direction and purpose after the incident with the 456.

Movie Review: Horrible Bosses

by Gary Sernaker, Reporter

Horrible Bosses is not a horrible comedy, it’s just a horrible example of how comedies are hobbled together today.  There are some yuks, but not enough to sustain the laugh-out-loud quotient that should have been an easy mark to obtain, considering this movie’s all-star cast.
