Did you miss your weekly dose of artifacts? Well, the Warehouse 13 crew is coming back next Monday with a kick ass premiere, brand new storylines and amazing casting. Daemon’s TV was lucky enough to catch up with the very talented Saul Rubinek, who plays Artie Nielsen, the smart but impatient leader of the Warehouse 13 team.
Mr. Rubinek opened up about what fans can expect from the new season, the joy of “schmacting” and the insidious dangers of acting. Check out what he had to say below and don’t forget to tune in for the premiere this coming Monday, July 11 on Syfy (9-10 p.m. ET)...

We have a joke on our show; we have three types of performing our show. Regular acting we call acting. Then we have schmacting, as in acting schmacting. Schmacting is when you’re working in front of a green screen. Then we have what they normally throw to me which is called facting. Facting is when they throw me exposition and I have to spout off very quickly and in as entertaining a way as possible what the hell these artifacts are, their history and what they do. Facting, schmacting and acting..."
