Final Two Episodes of Season 3

Why the delay until January for the final two episodes of Haven? Well, the Friday, December 14th episode of Haven that was slated to air contained scenes of fictitious violence in a high school setting and in light of the recent tragedy, we decided to reschedule it along with the series' season three finale. The final two episodes of season three will now air back-to-back on Thursday, January 17th from 8-10 PM (ET/PT) to maintain the integrity of the series' serialized nature and make sure the audience doesn't miss a moment.

Fringe season 4

TV GUIDE: THE BEST PERFORMANCES OF 2012

The cast of Fringe

Before Fringe says farewell, the cast is making sure to give it all they’ve got in this final season. Whether it's John Noble's emotional turn as a father scared to revert to his dastardly ways, to Joshua Jackson’s joyride as an Observer, the cast has never been this good. But the women of Fox’s sci-fi drama have been the unsung heroes this year, with Anna Torv never more believable as a mother whose lost her child not once, but twice, while Jasika Nicole has finally grown comfortable in Astrid’s skin — a feat considering she was once the character at the center of the most fun drinking game.

TV GUIDE: Matt Roush's TV Top 10 of 2012

Dec 17, 2012
by Matt Roush

In selecting a top-10 list for this year in TV, I found myself focusing on shows that made noise. Not every show on this list is a niche critic's darling, although a few certainly are. Some have a more populist appeal, not that there's anything wrong with that. This may also help explain why there's no new representation from the dismal fall season we just endured. (I like Elementary, Nashville and The New Normal, and will miss Last Resort, but none jumped out as being particularly significant.)

If I had a second 10, I might have included a few reality favorites: The Glee Project, Face Off, the durable Survivor. I'm sorry I didn't find room this year for Parenthood, Person of Interest, Justified, Community and a handful of other underdogs. And what would TV be without guilty pleasures like The Vampire Diaries, Grey's Anatomy and the berserk Scandal (which when it's on fire is the show Revenge would like to still be)? That said, the following 10-plus shows are the ones that personally and professionally brought me the most pleasure — or at least made me sit up and take notice — in 2012...


... 10. The Big Bang Theory

Success hasn't spoiled this geek-chic sitcom, a smash in syndication and cable while still dominating its weekly Thursday time slot on CBS. More important, Big Bang is funnier than ever, with a riotous ensemble finding infinite new variables in that most desirable formula: the essence of classic comedy.

The BiG Bang Theory airs Thursday at 8/7C on CBS.

BIG FINISH: Stargate, Doctor Who and the Briggs Family (December 2012 #2)

12 December 2012

This week, executive producer Nick Briggs is at home - and very much in demand. So we've made his life a little easier by just asking for links on this week's podcast, which features a slice of intrigue from the opening story of the new Stargate SG-1: Series Three - Part Two box set and episode one of this month's Doctor Who release 1001 Nights.

Stargate SG-1: Excision finds erstwhile archaeologist Daniel Jackson (Michael Shanks) and his friend and colleague Vala Mal Doran (Claudia Black) kidnapped by some rather dodgy former associates of Vala's who want to investigate - and plunder - a very strange object.

Abducted by some less than savoury characters, Daniel Jackson and Vala Mal Doran are caught up in the investigation of a strange object in space. What does it do, who created it and why does it seem so familiar?

As they discover more about the object, Daniel and Vala realise that they’re taking on an enormously technologically advanced threat bent on rewriting the very foundations of the universe. Can they stop the disaster that’s about to occur, or is life as they know it about to change forever?

Written By: Peter Evans, Richard Dinnick, Sharon Gosling
Directed By: Lisa Bowerman and Jason Haigh-Ellery

Cast includes Michael Shanks (Daniel Jackson), Claudia Black (Vala Mal Doran), Andrew Collins (Keto), Andrew Whipp (Zoder), Regina Reagan (Wellan), John Banks (Surtr/Vey/Lop/Mansu), Regina Reagan (Skadi/Ratatosk), Anna Tolputt (Geror), Stephen Hogan (Olssen), Harry Myers (Soric), Ken Bones (Lerat), Lisa Bowerman (Ranne), Paul Hyu (Lt Colonel Yin)

Meanwhile, Nyssa (Sarah Sutton) is forced to tell stories to a malevolent Sultan (Alexander Siddig) in order to keep the Doctor (Peter Davison) alive in part one of 1001 Nights.

You can download or stream the podcast containing these two tales right now - and you can also discover if Nick can convince his son Ben to speak! If you have any comments for the podcast team, who will be back in force next week, please e-mail podcast@bigfinish.com
