Link: Writer unveils some mysteries about Murdoch

You learn a lot of stuff you didn’t know and it’s a pleasurable activity in and of itself. Getting into embedded links is a great way to spend a chunk of your day.” Continue reading.

The market for home improvement shows might seem as cramped as a big-city studio apartment, but a Dartmouth production company looks like it has assembled something unique.

Enrico Colantoni joins Season 2 of Showcase’s Travelers

From a media release:

Showcase announced today that Enrico Colantoni (Remedy, Person of Interest) will join Season 2 of the time-travelling sci-fi drama series Travelers. Colantoni will play the character Vincent, a mysterious individual who may or may not be a friend of the travelers. Production now underway in Vancouver, Colantoni broke the news from the Travelers set with series star Eric McCormack. Stephen Lobo (Continuum) will appear as a recurring character and Amanda Tapping (Sanctuary) will return to direct multiple episodes and guest star.

Travelers follows a group of people from the future who have discovered how to send consciousness back through time, directly into people in the 21st century. These “travelers” assumed the lives of seemingly random people, while secretly working as teams to perform high-stakes missions in order to save the world from a terrible future. Season 2 picks up on the group’s haunting realization that their missions may have altered the future in ways they did not predict, and will air exclusively on Showcase in Canada in Fall 2017.

As previously announced, series writer and creator Brad Wright returns, along with leads Eric McCormack as FBI Special Agent Grant MacLaren, Jared Abrahamson as Trevor, Nesta Cooper as Carly, Reilly Dolman as Philip, Patrick Gilmore as David, and MacKenzie Porter as Marcy.
