Keep in mind that this should have been the mid-season finale, until baseball threw off the schedule. It’s an episode filled with reveals and action that should have kept you on the edge of your seat for weeks. Fortunately you only have to wait one. This week we begin with Peter (Joshua Jac ...

Moore, NBC had a chance to pick up a police procedural in a world that was very different from ours. Where magic is the norm and science is a fringe myt ...

ReviewPreview: Syfy Makes Peter Pan Much More Interesting

Miniseries debuts Dec. 4 on the cable channel

Sure, the same people who brought us an excellent retelling of "The Wizard of Oz" as well as a so-so exploration into "Alice in Wonderlan ...

At San Diego Comic-Con this past July, I had the pleasure of meeting a tall, muscular and seemingly talented young actor named Cody Deal.

You might think it's borrowed a bit from "Heroes" or even "The X-Men." But if you think "Alphas" is going to be something you've seen before, think again. Even if you don't believe me, don't let that deter you from watching "Alphas," especially if you're someone who likes characters. And that' ...
