The Sci-Fi Channel Promises 28 New Original Movies

How can we describe our love for the Sci-Fi Channel? Surely, no water has ever run as deep. Not only does the channel often air our beloved 1980s horror movies, it offers the most entertaining, unbelievably so-bad-it’s-good original programming on television. Once we viewed the quirkily titled Mansquito (the tale of a half-man/ half-mosquito, naturally) we were hooked.

Word is out: these three popular series will remain on NBC’s 2007 line-up. Oh, happy day! Medium will be back! Medium will be back! Sure, Las Vegas and Crossing Jordan are great too, but Medium is one of the absolute best shows (perhaps rivaled only by House, M.D.) on television today.

Lost’s Michelle Rodriguez Is Going To Jail

Perhaps she’s selfish. Or maybe she’s taking this ‘bad girl’ thing too far. Whatever the reason, Michelle Rodriguez, who plays tough chick and (ironically) ex-cop Ana Lucia on ABC’s Lost, has chosen jail over community service. Rodriguez was cited for drunk driving in December 2005, just minutes before her co-star Cynthia Watros (Libby) received the same treatment. After enjoying the bars together, the women were left to enjoy some breathalyzer tests. They both failed and …
