Don't miss Once upon a Time in Wonderland, coming Thursdays to ABC!
In Victorian England, the young and beautiful Alice (Sophie Lowe) tells a tale of a strange new land that exists on the other side of a rabbit hole. An invisible cat, a hookah smoking caterpillar and playing-cards that talk are just some of the fantastic things she's seen during this impossible adventure. Surely this troubled girl must be insane, and her doctors aim to cure her with a treatment that will make her forget everything. Alice seems ready to put it all behind her, especially the painful memory of the genie she fell in love with and lost forever -- the handsome and mysterious Cyrus (Peter Gadiot). But deep down Alice knows this world is real, and just in the nick of time the sardonic Knave of Hearts (Michael Socha) and the irrepressible White Rabbit (John Lithgow) arrive to save her from a doomed fate. Together the trio will take a tumble down the rabbit hole to this Wonderland where nothing is impossible.

SCIFI AND TV TALK: Coming of Age: Interview with Defiance's Nicole Munoz
05/14/2013
by Steve Eramo
Although she is not quite yet 20 years old, Nicole Munoz is already a seasoned acting pro. Since 2004, the Vancouver native has amassed a diverse and impressive list of feature film and TV roles, but long before that, the talented young woman was already performing in front of the camera. Between the ages of four and eight, Munoz appeared in over 50 TV commercials, and back then, she thought that that was business as usual for everyone her age.
“I remember going to elementary school and thinking that every other child was an actor. I missed a lot of school because of acting, and I’d be like, ‘Why are you guys in school today? Don’t you have a shoot?’ I thought it was normal, but clearly it wasn’t,” says Munoz with a laugh.
“I carried on acting all throughout high school and loved it. I was always taught to pursue my dreams, so when I turned 16 that’s when I really decided that acting was what I wanted to do for a living. I’m very serious about it and, fortunately, it’s paying off. Like most people, though, I dreamt of doing other things while growing up. At one point I wanted to be a teacher, and then an interior designer, but If I wasn’t an actor, I think I’d study history and become a history teacher.”
Nowadays, the actress is experiencing life in a brave new world as Christie McCawley in the new hit Syfy TV series Defiance. Her character is among the survivors of a war between humankind and a group of seven alien species known collectively as Votans. These extraterrestrials originally came to Earth looking for a new world to settle after their star system was destroyed. Their desire for more and more living space eventually led to a conflict that culminated in the terraforming of Earth. Christie and her family now live in a settlement called Defiance (which was built on the remains of St. Louis, Missouri) alongside other humans as well as Votans...

SLEEPY HOLLOW - FOX VIDEO: NEW SERIES TRAILER - PREMIERES FALL 2013
Ichabod Crane wakes up from the throes of death 250 years in the future to find the world on the brink of destruction and learn he is humanity's only hope.
From co-creators/executive producers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci (the "Star Trek" and "Transformers" franchises, "Fringe") comes the adventure thriller SLEEPY HOLLOW. In this modern-day retelling of Washington Irving's classic, ICHABOD CRANE (Tom Mison, "Salmon Fishing in the Yemen") is resurrected and pulled two and a half centuries through time to find that the world is on the brink of destruction and that he is humanity's last hope, forcing him to team up with a contemporary police officer (Nicole Beharie, "Shame," "American Violet") to unravel a mystery that dates back to the founding fathers.

From co-creators/executive producers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci (the "Star Trek" and "Transformers" franchises, "Fringe") comes the adventure thriller SLEEPY HOLLOW. In this modern-day retelling of Washington Irving's classic, ICHABOD CRANE (Tom Mison, "Salmon Fishing in the Yemen") is resurrected and pulled two and a half centuries through time to find that the world is on the brink of destruction and that he is humanity's last hope, forcing him to team up with a contemporary police officer (Nicole Beharie, "Shame," "American Violet") to unravel a mystery that dates back to the founding fathers...
What if you suddenly woke up from the throes of death 250 years in the future to find the world is on the brink of destruction, caused by unimaginable events, and you are humanity's last hope?
... In this modern-day retelling of Washington Irving's classic, ICHABOD CRANE is resurrected and pulled two and a half centuries through time to unravel a mystery that dates all the way back to the founding fathers. Revived alongside Ichabod is the infamous Headless Horseman who is on a murderous rampage in present-day Sleepy Hollow. Bound to the Headless Horseman by a blood spell cast on the battlefield of the American Revolution, Ichabod quickly realizes that stopping Headless is just the beginning, as the resurrected rider is but the first of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
As this re-invented Ichabod finds himself in present-day Sleepy Hollow, he discovers a town and a world he no longer recognizes. All that is brutally familiar are Headless and Ichabod's determination to annihilate this immortal being. It's a mission he must complete quickly, as Headless already has viciously slain Sheriff AUGUST CORBIN (guest star Clancy Brown, "Cowboys & Aliens," "Carnivale"). Grey served both as mentor and father figure to Detective ABBIE MILLS (Nicole Beharie), a young cop whose own supernatural experiences help her form an unlikely bond with Ichabod. But Sleepy Hollow's head of police, Captain FRANK IRVING (Orlando Jones, "The Chicago 8," "Drumline"), isn't buying any of this.
In fact, the only person who is on Abbie's side is Ichabod. His extensive first-hand knowledge of our secret American history, coupled with her superior profiling and modern threat assessment skills, will make them a formidable duo as they work together to triumph over evil. The complex pasts of Ichabod and Abbie, from Ichabod's inclusion in the powerful and secretive Freemasons Society and the ghostly appearance of his late wife, KATRINA (Katia Winter, "Dexter"), to Abbie's childhood visions, will help them solve the intricate puzzles of Sleepy Hollow in order to protect its future.
As history repeats itself, the oddly-linked pair will draw on the real stories and hallowed secrets this nation was founded on in their quest to stop an increasingly vicious cycle of evil...
The search for stolen nuclear weapons is on after an explosion in the Pacific that has some aftershocks for the NCIS team. Hetty (Linda Hunt) assigns Callen and Kensi (Chris O'Donnell, Daniela Ruah) to investigate overseas, while Sam (LL Cool J) works stateside with Deeks (Eric Christian Olsen) in the season finale, "Descent."
