Season 1 of “Heroes” is coming to an end soon with only four more episodes to air. It comes to no surprise that NBC has already ordered a full second Season of its #1 series! Yattaaa! [ press release ]

Primeval
A new series called “Primeval” premiered on ITV1. Abhorrent script, ludicrous effects and abysmal acting set in some small suburbian town in England with a magnetic anomaly that allows dinosaurs from the past to enter Dean Forest and terrorize the clueless townsfolk. Seriously, cancel this show now…
Battlestar Galactica Mid Season Finale
With so many shows already on hiatus BSG now also takes a break after its mid season finale “The Eye of the Jupiter”. The series will return on January 21st 2007 but will be moved to Sunday nights. BSG is currently my favorite show and seeing it moved to another time slot plus pausing it for four weeks cannot possibly be good for ratings, which are already slightly down from the previous season. I just hope we are still good for a Season 4. Speaking of Season Finales… Dexter also comes to an end this Sunday!
The Lost Room (mini) premieres on SciFi
“The Lost Room” mini series premieres its pilot “The Key and the Clock” tomorrow, Monday 10th Dec. on SciFi, starring Peter Krause (Six Feet Under) as Detective Joe Miller searching for his daughter trying to uncover what mysteries Room Number 10 at the Sunshine Motel on Route 66 holds. It does sound like a creepily interesting piece of mystery SciFi worth checking out.
Aquaman sinks
Despite what you might think Aquaman is not Patrick Duffy although he is from Atlantis. There was a series in the 70s and this one is not a remake of it. Aquaman “A.C.” (Justin Hartley) is based on the DC Comics hero, he is the lost prince of Atlantis and the wicked Sirens are after him. All he has to do is shoot them right between the eyes to kill them. Sounds easy but Sirens do what Sirens do, they bewitch men.
Does this series bewitch its viewers and lure them in to want more? Not really. It’s nice to watch, alright, sunny beaches, makes you wish you were there, surfing. But as far as super heroes go Aquaman comes off as being a teenage surfer dude who can swim as fast as a jet plane and look silly while doing so and don’t get me started on the dialogue…
The newly created CW network already decided not to pick it up and I can’t blame them. However, you can download the unaired pilot of “Aquaman” over at itunes for $1.99.
