GOLD DERBY: Sci-fi staple Christopher Heyerdahl goes back in time on 'Hell on Wheels'

By Daniel Montgomery
Jun 11 2012

Christopher Heyerdahl is not a household name, but if you've watched television in recent years, chances are you've seen him, especially if you're a fan of science fiction and fantasy. The Canadian actor's resume includes roles on "Supernatural," "Caprica," and "Sanctuary." He now stars on AMC's western "Hell on Wheels" as a mysterious enforcer known as "the Swede" to other characters who fail to recognize that he's actually Norwegian...

Hell on Wheels season two premieres Sunday, August 12, 2012 at 10/9C on AMC. Cast includes Anson Mount, Common, Colm Meaney, Dominique McElligott, Christopher Heyerdahl, Tom Noonan and Eddie Spears.

... Question: For the last couple of years, I have cursed Fox for how they handled certain shows, often canceling them without any warning or under-promoting them. In the past they have shown episodes out of order like Sliders and Firefly or have under-promoted others. Which brings me to Fringe. I believe they have done a pretty good job on handling this show. Other shows with such low ratings would have been canceled without fanfare. But Fox has held on to Fringe for dear life. Their only real misstep was moving it around from good time slots to the dead zone which is Friday. They did show one episode out of order, but nothing to mess up the flow of the series. If Fox didn't care, this show would have been gone a season ago. It is one of my favorite shows and to me is one of the best shows on Fox, but I have to ask why has Fox kept pushing for Fringe when it has given up on so many in the past? — Mike K

Matt Roush: It's a fair question, but I'd like to think some shows are just too good and too special to be thrown on the trash heap without a fight, and Fringe is one of those. (Community is another, but after three seasons of anarchic bliss, that may be a case where it might have been better for the network and studio to just let it go.) With Fringe, the network always stood behind it creatively, even when it became clear it was never going to play it safe in an attempt to gain a larger audience. In a smaller way, it was Fox's Lost, and letting Fringe continue to its natural end point in its fifth season is a rare achievement, made possible by what seems to be extraordinary cooperation between network, studio and production team. Sometimes it's best not to ask "why," and just enjoy the miracle while you can...

... Question: Linda Hunt leaving NCIS: LA will destroy it. It was suffering from the Deeks character and the juvenile dialogue written for him. With the loss of Hetty, little will be left to attract an audience. Miguel Ferrer has destroyed every series he has been a part of. With a deadpan delivery and zombie-like acting, it makes for painful watching. So long Kensi, G and Sam. It was nice knowing you. — BK


Matt Roush: I'm not sure Miguel Ferrer deserves to be branded a show-killer, but I agree that losing Linda Hunt could be a deal-breaker for many fans. I assume this rant is in response to our reporting in our recent "Burning Questions Answered" issue. Here's how executive producer Shane Brennan addressed the situation: "Hetty's resigned. We'll see her in the opener, but she's no longer with NCIS. She's retired." And we also report that Assistant Director Granger (Ferrer) will take over in her absence. My reaction to this: We've seen Hetty quit before, and nothing in that item convinces me she's gone for good. This is the kind of game shows like this play between seasons to keep viewers interested, even at the risk of agitating them. So the best I can say for now (as is often the case) is: Stay tuned. (And if it does turn out Hunt is leaving: Bon voyage, Hetty. It's been grand...)

... Question: I read the number of episodes for Warehouse 13 in this season was increased from 13 to 20. Does that mean it will be 10 this summer and then 10 next summer? It didn't work out with Eureka when Syfy aired season 4.0 one summer and then season 4.5 the next summer. If there is such a long break between each half of a season, it'd be better if they kept the season order to 13 episodes per summer. Announcing an increase in episodes sounds good, but it actually can be a lot worse. It'd be better if they went back to airing 10 episodes in the summer and then another 10 in the winter. It was great with the Stargate shows. — Ryan

Matt Roush: Syfy will split the new season of Warehouse into two batches of 10 — the first half will air from July 23 to Oct. 1 — and while it hasn't yet been decided when the back half will air, I'm betting it will be closer to the Stargate model (airing both halves within a year) than what happened to Eureka, which never should have been kept off the air so long between partial seasons. Warehouse 13 is doing very well for Syfy, which is why they expanded its episode order. I would be very surprised if they didn't try to maximize their investment by airing the back half during winter or early spring...

Warehouse 13 season four premieres Monday, July 23, 2012 at 9/8C on Syfy.
