Con Man Screen_Shot_2015-09-16_at_9.38.49_AM-77de8511e9c2efe7495232ff56accf93NEW YORK (September 30, 2015) – Con Man premieres exclusively on Vimeo On Demand today. Three new episodes of the series will premiere every Wednesday for four weeks.Con Man is now available to rent for $14.99 at Vimeo.com/OnDemand/ConMan.

Con Man centers on the post-show life of Wray Nerely (Alan Tudyk) the co-star of “Spectrum,” a sci-fi series, which was canceled before its time and went on to become a cult classic beloved by fans. Wray’s good friend, Jack Moore (Nathan Fillion) starred as the series Captain and has gone on to become a major celebrity, while Wray (Tudyk) hasn’t found his desired level of stardom. Wray is the begrudging guest of sci-fi conventions, comic book store appearances, and different pop culture events; however, everything is not as it seems from the outside.The series will explore these events and all the weird and crazy things that happen to them along the way.

Con Man also features a plethora of Sci-Fi’s biggest personalities including: Tricia Helfer (Battlestar Galactica), Amy Acker (Person of Interest), Gina Torres (Firefly, Suits), Sean Maher (Firelfly, Eastsiders), Felicia Day (Buffy The Vampire Slayer), Seth Green (Family Guy/Austin Powers), Mindy Sterling (Austin Powers), Jewel Staite, (Firefly), Summer Glau (Firefly, Terminator: SCC), Sean Astin (Lord of The Rings), James Gunn and Joss Whedon.

Con Man was funded via Indiegogo, resulting in a record-breaking 3.2 million dollar campaign. With the support of over 46,000 fans from around the world, Con Man now stands as the third highest funded film campaign on any crowdfunding platform ever.

Con Man is executive produced by PJ Haarsma, Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion

#Blindspot

A body covered in meaningful, and useful to the plot, tattoos is not a first… think Prison Break.  But there are significant differences.  In Blindspot they are on a woman who has no memory, a person who is rediscovering herself — and it is likely a safe assumption each week she will uncover the meaning of another one of the marks on her body.

In the first episode not 1 but 3 of the tattoos were revealed to have meaning, we also discovered that there was a particularly heavily inked area that was covering up a tattoo she had before… whatever life-changing event happened to leave her with no memory and a body covered like a treasure map full of clues.

With the “back 9” episodes having been ordered to script, it looks like we can safely hope for a complete first season of Blindspot, which hopefully means a satisfying arc, with a few answers along the way.

The cast includes Jaimie Alexander (“Thor: The Dark World,” “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”), Sullivan Stapleton (“300: Rise of an Empire,” “Strike Back”), Marianne Jean-Baptiste (“Broadchurch,” “Without a Trace”), Rob Brown (“Treme”), Audrey Esparza (“Black Box”), Ukweli Roach (“The Royals”) and Ashley Johnson (“Much Ado About Nothing”).

Twelve Monkeys (1995)

John Mayo, of ComicBookPage, and Kay Kellam, of PopArtsPlace, have a spoilers filled discussion about the Twelve Monkeys movie from 1995.  With Syfy having finished a season of the tv show 12 Monkeys, based on the premise of this movie, we decided it was time we sat down to not only watch the original film, but speculate on how it could evolve into a show we are looking forward to binge watching.

For those who have not yet seen the movie, and have a Hulu subscription, with the Showtime Add-on, you can stream Twelve Monkeys through your Hulu account.

The first season of SyFy’s 12 Monkeys is also available on Hulu.
