TV Talk:
Most of all the new SF shows for the fall have now debuted and some have done so with pretty fair ratings. The biggest challenge for viewers is how the networks have pitted their competing shows against one another. Some are showing as many as 3 at the same time and with some favorites from last year returning, even owning a DVR won’t help catch them all. That being said, while the ratings have been fair to good — only a couple are clear winners and we share all the latest standings with you.
Interview: Mike and Summer talk with comic book writer/creator Jimmy Palmiotti, one of the main writers behind the “Dead Space” video game. Jimmy also has an impressive resume, writing for such TV shows like “Painkiller Jane” and “Speed Racer: The Next Generation.” He also wrote for video games such as “Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe,” “Ghost Rider” and “Punisher.” Besides the “Dead Space” video game and the upcoming animated made-for-DVD film based on the game, Jimmy also talks about some of his future projects and the prospect of doing a live-action Dead Space movie.

Wait.. Did you say “puppets” and “Happy Time”?
And someone mentioned Joss Whedon doing it?
Well.. He did! “Happy Time” was the name of a sinister, puppet-led children’s program that played in Angel. This is the infamous puppet episode of Angel, in which the title character is transformed into a “wee little puppet”, as Spike puts it..

I don’t understand why you guys aren’t talking about “The Big Bang Theory” TV show more often. Ok, it is on in the same timeslot as “Heroes”, but that’s why you own a TIVO/DVDR, right? If you haven’t seen the show yet, check out season 2, episode 4 and you’ll be hooked!
