Harwood to debate the finer points of the last of Season 3's standalone episodes. Pusher, Teso Dos Bichos, Hell Money, Jose Chung's From Outer Space, Avatar, Quagmire and Wetwired are dissected and debated, all from a rock in the middle of Heuvelmans Lake. In the quiz portion test your knowledge of Pusher, Big Blue, Lord Kinbote and all the other crazy things these episodes have to offer.

As informed today in various media outlets, NBC has moved Hannibal and Aquarius to Saturday nights. For those not versed in TV programming trends, this slot is not very popular, and definitely not coveted spaces to please large audiences.
This move was not surprising in the case of Hannibal, which has been cancelled after it's third season. But it does come as a surprise for Aquarius, which has been renewed for a second season, despite very low ratings.
The new timeslot for these series would be: 9-10PM for Aquarius, and 10-11PM for Hannibal.
David Duchovny's seventies cop show was premiered with an online release very much like Netflix and Amazon Prime' strategies, offering all episodes at once, and claiming that the show would find a stronger audience on the Internet. Whether NBC plans to release those numbers or not to confirm the success of this strategy, the recent move doesn't improve the chances for other audiences to find the Charles Manson drama.
Hannibal hasn't had luck at finding a new home, with Bryan Fuller announcing that Netflix and Amazon had passed on the negotiations. Their panel at San Diego Comic Con didn't bring new news, but the last known report was that there's still hope that another network, including a couple of notorious cable channels, could take the gamble and pick up the stylized and ambitious story.
We had the incredible experience to sit down and talk to Writer/Director/Producer and fandom favorite, Mr. Frank Spotnitz. He's in San Diego Comic Con to promote his upcoming show at Amazon, The Man in the High Castle. Hope that you enjoy the interview, as our own Roileigh Ollson discusses with him all the aspects that went into this production and his own take on fandom and the upcoming X-Files Revival.
Stay tuned to our coverage of The Man in the High Castle at SDCC '15 and much more!
