Continuum (Canada) - SciFi and TV Talk: Tony Amendola Interview

SCIFI AND TV TALK: Follow The Leader - Interview with Continuum's Tony Amendola


By Steve Eramo
06/09/2012


"Twenty years ago when the corporations bailed out our failed governments, they sold it to us as salvation. Now we see that we have paid for that rescue with our freedoms. We have awakened to the truth. We have become slaves to the corporate congress. Today all that changes. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that we have passed the torch to a new generation unwilling to permit the undoing of human rights and dignities. And let every corporation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price in order to assure the survival and success of liberty."



These are the words spoken by Edouard Kagame in the opening teaser of A Stitch in Time, the first episode of the hit Canadian Sci-Fi/Police Drama Continuum. No sooner does he finish making this announcement to the outside world, when a CPS (City Protective Services) team, led by Officer Kiera Cameron, bursts into his office to arrest him. They may have their man, but are still too late in one regard. Kagame’s words have lit the proverbial blue touch paper and sparked off a revolt against corporate control in 2077. For veteran stage and screen actor Tony Amendola, taking on the Kagame role was a true gift in more ways than one.

“When the script for this project first came across my desk I thought, ‘How wonderful,’” recalls Amendola. “It was a sort of an interesting road back to Vancouver, a place I love, and the opportunity to work with Jon Cassar, who directed the first two episodes of Continuum. So I had the initial audition, and then a couple of weeks later I had a second one. The [casting] process extended into the holiday season and, in fact, I heard that I got the job two days before Christmas [2011]. My agent called and said, ‘Merry Christmas.’ I said to him, ‘Merry Christmas to you too, Greg,’ and he said again, ‘No, no, no, Merry Christmas.’ It then dawned on me what he was talking about..."


Continuum airs Sunday at 9/8C on Showcase in Canada. Cast includes Rachel Nichols, Victor Webster, Erik Knudsen, Stephen Lobo, Richard Harmon, Tony Amendola, Brian Markinson and Stargate Universe's Jennifer Spence.

ASSIGNMENT X: Exclusive Interview: LONGMIRE producers John Coveny and Hunt Baldwin talk about A&E’s new mystery western


Fans of Craig Johnson's books will not be disappointed by the spectacular treatment the producers promise


By SEAN ELLIOTT
Posted: June 2nd, 2012


Airing Sunday at 10/9C on A&E is the new western series LONGMIRE, based on the best-selling novels by Wyoming author Craig Johnson. The show comes to television from executive producers and writers John Coveny and Hunt Baldwin whose previous series THE CLOSER was a critically acclaimed success for six seasons.

Coveny and Baldwin are re-teaming with CLOSER producer Greer Shephard and are hoping that this modern day western mystery series will go for at least ten seasons.

LONGMIRE follows the life and cases of Walt Longmire (Robert Taylor) who is the sheriff of a small town called Durant in Absaroka County, Wyoming. The series promises to capture the characters and the feel of the books that so many readers have grown to love and the producers promise to bring in more elements to broaden the world of Longmire even more.

ASSIGNMENT X recently spoke with the producing and writing team of Coveny and Baldwin as they took time out from a day of shooting on location to share with us what to expect from LONGMIRE, how they hope fans of the books will react to seeing their favorite characters come to life for the first time, and casting the perfect man to play Walt Longmire...


... ASSIGNMENT X: How did you gentlemen come to LONGMIRE and want to produce and write it as a television series?

JOHN COVENY: "The kooky thing is that the Hollywood Process actually worked in a sort of cliché way. We had talked to our agent over the years about our love of trying to do a modern day western. I was a big fan of BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID. Hunt’s family has been and lives currently in Wyoming."

HUNT BALDWIN: "My mom and dad retired in 1992, and they moved to Wyoming about a year later. So it’s become a big part of my life."

COVENY: "It was in both of our bloodstreams. We had talked to our agent and he said that they represented a writer name Craig Johnson for CAA. His books were about Wyoming and it was a modern day western. He said it fit with our sensibilities and has some humor, and with our procedural knowledge we had gotten on THE CLOSER for six seasons. He put the book down in front of us. We read THE COLD DISH and about ten pages in we knew it was something we wanted to develop..."

BOSTON HERALD: ‘Longmire’ winding road for A&E star Sackhoff

By Amy Amatangelo
Sunday, June 3, 2012


People always chase Katee Sackhoff down and offer to buy her a Starbucks coffee.

The 32-year-old actress is best known for playing Starbuck in “Battlestar Galactica,” the critically acclaimed, much beloved Syfy series that ended in 2009.

“We created something pretty amazing,” Sackhoff said of the series in a recent telephone interview from New Mexico. “I know that it will be a job that I’m always remembered for, but I do hope that there will be more on top of it. ... I do hope there’s a long career of characters that are just as impressive and iconic...”



... Perhaps Vic Moretti, the character she plays in the new drama “Longmire,” ... which airs Sunday at 10/9C on A&E, could be one of them.

“One of the reasons I took the role is because it was so different from anything I’ve done, while at the same time still staying in my wheelhouse,” she said. “This is the closest I’ve ever played to myself, because she’s actually normal. This is the first person I’ve ever played that wasn’t insane to some extent, so it’s kind of nice...”

ASSIGNMENT X: Exclusive Interview: EUREKA co-creator Jamie Paglia looks back and forward – Part 1

The series co-creator/exec producer talks about the series coming to the end

By ABBIE BERNSTEIN
June 4th, 2012


EUREKA is Syfy’s much-loved and successful series about a town full of good-hearted geniuses working on secret science projects that accidentally almost destroy the world every week or so. The show, starring Colin Ferguson as regular-guy town sheriff Jack Carter, Salli Richardson-Whitfield as Jack’s love Dr. Allison Blake, Erica Cerra as deputy-turned-chief of security for town science hub Global Dynamics Jo Lupo, Neil Grayston as GD chief Douglas Fargo and Joe Morton as eccentric engineer Henry Deacon, is in its fifth and final season Monday nights.

Jaime Paglia, who co-created EUREKA with Andrew Cosby, and remains as one of its executive producers and show runners, sits down at a lovely pond-side location for this two-part exclusive interview...


... AX: Were there concerns about the “butterfly effect” – one small change in the past could affect everything in the future – with the Season Four reset, when Jack, Allison, Jo, Fargo and Henry get sent back to 1942 and find the present somewhat altered when they return?

PAGLIA: "Honestly, I think that we were so excited by the potential of what that was going to give us in terms of taking our same town and our same people, but putting them into these unknown roles and giving each of them basically an upside and a downside to [coming back to a changed town], it was going to be such a rich opportunity to tell new stories with them, that it was going to be worth the risk. And when we went in, my co-show runner Bruce Miller and I went in to pitch this to the network, what we were going to do for the season. We said, “We go back in time and there’s a reset, we come back and Henry’s married to a woman he’s only met, Tess [Carter’s ex-girlfriend played by Jaime Ray Newman] never left, so Carter and Allison can’t be together, and Jo is now the head of security and Zane [Niall Matter] never proposed to Jo, so there’s an upside and a downside, Allison’s son doesn’t have autism any more and Fargo is running Global Dynamics.” They just danced in their chairs. But after everybody was so excited about this, they said, “So when are you going to make it all go back to normal?” And we said, 'We’re not...'"

Eureka season five airs Monday at 9/8C on Syfy.

Longmire - TV Guide: Cassidy Freeman Interview

TV GUIDE: Move Over, Superman! Longmire's Cassidy Freeman Has a New Man in Her Life

Jun 8, 2012
by Natalie Abrams


Cassidy Freeman is no longer Superman's one-time enemy-turned-ally nor is she a centuries-old vampire anymore. She's left those sci-fi/fantasy roles behind to play the no-nonsense daughter of the dedicated and unflappable sheriff of Absaroka County, Wyoming, Walt Longmire (Robert Taylor).

In the new A&E series Longmire, Freeman's Cady had dreams of the big city, but after the death of her mother, she took it upon herself to help her father Walt get back on his feet, much to his chagrin and to her own frustrations. Little does her father know that she's been keeping secrets, the least of which is that she's dating someone already very familiar to him. To get the scoop on Longmire's father-daughter relationship, TVGuide.com turned to Freeman, who also discusses her transition from sci-fi to Western and more:



... Q: Because you and Katee Sackhoff have similar sci-fi backgrounds, have you guys discussed now doing the polar opposite of before?

Freeman: "Yeah. We chuckle about it. We'll talk about conventions together. We have this knowledge that maybe other people on the show don't have. Like, I'm going to Superman Celebration this weekend. She went to a sci-fi one in Canada like three or four weeks ago. She'll be like, "Oh my God, I'm so exhausted." I'll be like, "Why?" She's like, "Convention." I'm like, "I get you." You're sitting there giving so much of yourself. So, we have that commonality. But I think we both were excited to try something new and different. We're the two on set tweeting all the time, and Lou Diamond Phillips is kind of an obsessive Tweeter, but we're proud of him for it..."

Longmire cast includes Robert Taylor, Katee Sackhoff, Lou Diamond Phillips, Bailey Chase, Cassidy Freeman and Adam Bartley. Airs Sunday at 10/9C on A&E TV.

HANNAH'S LAW - NEW YORK TIMES: HAS GUNS, WEARS DRESS, SEEKS JUSTICE - PREMIERES SATURDAY, JUNE 9, 2012 AT 8/7C ON THE HALLMARK MOVIE CHANNEL

By NEIL GENZLINGER
Published: June 8, 2012


“Revenge” is between seasons, and “Dog the Bounty Hunter” is on its last legs. What’s a fan of revenge-and-bounty-hunting-themed television to do? On Saturday night the Hallmark Movie Channel steps forward with relief: “Hannah’s Law,” a tasty western tale that seems just right for a weekend in June.

Like Amanda Clarke on ABC’s “Revenge,” Hannah Beaumont (Sara Canning of “The Vampire Diaries”) saw her world shattered when she was young and vows to make those who did the shattering pay. The story begins in 1866 in Abilene, Tex., with a stark scene in which outlaws unceremoniously kill Hannah’s parents and — perhaps; it’s not entirely clear — her brother while she watches from a hiding place.

When we next meet Hannah, she is a grown woman and in the bounty-hunting business, taking a particular interest, of course, in the gang members who made her an orphan. But unlike some of her competitors, she likes to bring the miscreants in alive so they can face justice...
