I had the pleasure of being a panelist on the newest rewatch series from Dragon Con Urban Fantasy Track, Lost Girl Revisited. We chatted about season 1: Our favorite characters, favorite episodes, and so much more. Feel free to watch and leave a comment about what you thought of the season.
This was a fun Dragon Con Urban Fantasy panel about one of my favorite settings, the Buffyverse. We discussed the new Buffy the Vampire Slayer audio drama, Slayers. It was great hearing James Marsters voice back as Spike! With him and so many other returning actors (Charisma Carpenter, Anthony Head, Juliet Landau, Emma Caulfield Ford, Amber Benson, James Charles Leary, Danny Strong) it felt like a reunion. What did we love about Slayers? What did we think of a Buffyverse show in an audio drama format? What character arc did we like best? If we get a season 2, what would we love to see…I mean hear? Watch and find out.
This “scripted audio original picks up 10 years after the events of the final episode of ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer.’ Since then, Spike (James Marsters) has gone deep undercover in Los Angeles, convincing the forces of darkness that he’s back to his evil ways. When his cover is compromised by sixteen-year-old Indira Nunnally (Laya DeLeon Hayes), Spike finds himself on baby-slayer-sitting duty once more. While he attempts to track down a watcher for his eager new protégé, their paths collide with the veteran Slayer of a parallel reality where Buffy Summers never existed…a reality where Cordelia Chase (Charisma Carpenter) is the one-and-only Slayer. She needs Spike’s help with a classic big bad terrorizing her world…his old flame, Drusilla (Juliet Landau).”
Had a fun time on this ConTinual panel talking about the many other great comic books out there that aren’t Marvel or DC.
Marvel and DC have brought some of the most iconic characters to the page and screen, but they aren’t the only ones. Are you looking for ways to branch out in your comics reading? Join host Nancy Northcott and panelists John L. French, Emily Lavin Leverett, and Marx Pyle for a chat about Comics Beyond the Big Two.
Calling all Buffy aficionados! The moment you’ve been eagerly waiting for has arrived. Brace yourselves as we prepare to bid farewell to the iconic Buffy the Vampire Slayer series with our final episode of the Buffy rewatch on the Dragon Con Urban Fantasy Track YouTube channel.
I join fellow die-hard Bufy fans, as we dissect, discuss, and relive the spine-tingling moments that define this season.
The First Evil looms larger than ever, uber-vampires threaten to tip the balance, and the malevolent Caleb stirs up chaos. With new Slayers stepping into the limelight, the return of Spike and Faith, the mysterious Principal Wood, and the ever-resilient Scoobies, it is a roller coaster ride of a season building to that unforgettable series finale.
It’s time for another episode of SFP-Now TV Reviews. This time Ian and I are joined by special guest, Jeff Burns. We discuss the newest episodes of The Last of Us, Star Trek: Picard, Quantum Leap, and more!
SFP-NOW TV REVIEWS SHOW: The Gang Discuss The Last Airbender & Express Bitter Disappointment Over The New Season of Halo –
SciFiPulse Radio
Welcome to another episode of the SFP-NOW TV Reviews Show.
This month Ian, Marx and Jeff get their swashbuckling shoes on as they discuss a shedload of new shows that have launched on various platforms that cover the first two months of the year.
We kick off the show with my thoughts on the new season of Star Wars: The Bad Batch and how the third season is really leaning into the cloning story, which has fed through to The Mandalorian.
The second show we look at is the new Netflix take on The Last Airbender. Ian and Marx discuss their enjoyment of the show and like the fact that it has good representation for Asian and Indiginus peoples. Where Jeff, who also liked the show expresses his concerns that it maybe a little bit to much like the original animated series that the show is based on.
Other shows that get discussed include True Detective and Quantum Leap, which we will revisit in another show so that Jeff and I can discuss the finale. Also discussed is the latest take on Zorro in which Jeff gives myself and Marx a really strong review for the series.
We wrap things up with a discussion about how pretty much all of us are really cheesed off about the change in direction and storyline that has happened for the second season of Halo.
So tune in for some fun discussion and a good mixture of views on some of the latest genre shows on TV.

In this episode, Ian & Marx give their initial thoughts on the new CW series Gotham, which is a show set in a universe where Batman has been killed. Our initial thoughts are that the show is kind of meh and has room for improvement. So tune in to hear exactly what we have to say.
Moving on. We also give our first thoughts on School Spirits and focus on the show’s pilot episode ‘My So-Called Death’, which introduces us to the tone and characters of the series. In this discussion, Marx compares this show to ‘Dead Like Me’ only with less sarcasm.
Staying on the theme of supernatural series. We also discuss Wolf Pack and zoom in on the penultimate episode titled ‘Lion’s Breath’ which has a few big plot reveals when it comes to Ramsay and her true nature. We also discuss how gorgeous the show’s cinematography is when it comes to one shot in particular.
Moving into the realm of science fiction and fantasy. We discuss the new season of The Mandalorian and recap events from ‘The Mines of Mandalore’ and ‘The Convert’. We also briefly discuss a few shows from Star Wars past as well as touch on the infamous Holiday Special via a discussion about a new documentary film about that. So set your lightsabers to maim as many Ewoks were sacrificed to make this episode.
We close out this month’s show with a recap of Star Trek: Picard’s fifth episode ‘Imposters’, which not only saw the return of Ro Laren from TNG. But also used her character as a means to link the A and B plots together as more is revealed about The Changeling Plot to undermine Starfleet and The Federation. We also speculate somewhat as to where this could go and discuss how Paramount Plus could use this season of Picard as a Springboard for other series that could reintroduce characters from TNG, DS9 & Voyager as well as continue the adventures of some of the new characters such as Captain Shaw and Ensign Sydney LaForge.
So please tune in for another packed reviews episode and feel free to comment about any of the shows we cover or even suggest shows and movies you’d like us to discuss.

Recently, I’ve had the pleasure of taking part in some exciting new online actual play tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs), and one of my favorites has been Get Charlotte. This one is perfect for anyone who enjoys stories in the vein of Quentin Tarantino, or is curious about the innovative Everyday Heroes RPG that uses 5E. In Get Charlotte, I get to embody a tough ex-boxer who’s a Russian American (called The Hammer), wielding a sledgehammer to take on his enemies. If any of this sounds appealing, I recommend giving it a watch!
Episode Description: Beau Brownstone has a problem. His teenage daughter, Charlotte has been missing for three days, and a cryptic letter threatening his criminal empire has the whole family on edge. Beau scrambles to put together a Crew to Get Charlotte back. With no leads as to her whereabouts, Beau sends The Crew to an old friend, Nice Guy Eddie at an old junkyard called Monster Joe’s Truck and Tow to get the lowdown on what’s going on in the underbelly of LA’s underworld, hoping for a lead on what might have happened to Charlotte. When The Crew arrives, however, they stumble upon a robbery in progress. Will they win the day or make a mess of things? Find out in our premiere episode of our new ongoing campaign, Get Charlotte, set in the worlds of Quentin Tarantino, Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller!
It’s a brand-new Dreamslayer Studios campaign in a brand-new RPG format: Everyday Heroes RPG using the 5E Engine!
Get Charlotte is an Everyday Heroes RPG campaign set in the worlds of Quentin Tarantino, Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller. Beau Brownstone, a multi-national crime boss is desperately searching for his missing daughter, Charlotte. He quickly assembles a rag-tag Crew to find the missing teenager. Someone is threatening his family, and it could literally be anyone – Beau has made a lot of enemies in the decade he has been in charge of the Brownstone legacy. Follow the adventures of The Crew as they tear through the underbelly of the Los Angeles underworld in search of the heir to the Brownstone criminal empire. Featuring cameos from movies like Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Jackie Brown, Kill Bill, Desperado, Once Upon a Time in Mexico and a host of others with art inspired by Frank Miller’s Sin City.
