Flash! (ah-ahhhhh!) On Saturday's GOOD MORNING MULTIVERSE (https://youtu.be/RC5wvvlRh44) we reported on a brand new 4K restoration of the classic 1980 film FLASH GORDON (sadly only available in the UK at the moment). Tonight we talk about the movie, the kitsch, the soundtrack, the villain, and BRIAN BLESSED! Tip Jar: https://www.paypal.me/scifi4me SubscribeStar: http://www.subscribestar.com/scifi4...

Tonight, in honor of "May the Fourth", we're talking about STAR WARS, but not in the way you might expect from everyone else. We're going to look at the films and TV shows that took a few... liberties with their stories. Some of them more blatantly than others. ~ BATTLE OF THE PLANETS ~ JASON OF STAR COMMAND ~ BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (1978) ~ MESSAGE FROM SPACE ~ TURKISH STAR WARS ~ THE ICE PIRATES ~...

Tonight, we're talking about crowdfunding and the success of many projects on Indiegogo and Kickstarter.

The last three weeks, we made some recommendations on stories to enjoy (or not) during the zombie apocalypse. Now, we take a look at the end of the world. Invasion! Destruction!

This week, we flip the script. Instead of recommending stories to enjoy, we've got a handful of tales to maybe ... not.

More recommendations for your story consumption! Mr. Harvey has several suggestions for podcasts for you to try.

Tonight! We're talking about the pandemic, and what it's doing to life as we know it. From comicon cancellations and comic book shops closing, to Hollywood productions on hold, to streets empty of traffic, it's beginning to look like the Zombie Apocalypse is finally here, right? Well, it might not be AS bad as that, but it's still a time of great concern for everyone. We're taking some time to tal...

In the wake of Dan DiDio's dismissal from DC Comics after a long tenure, and following the comments from Jim Lee at C2E2, we take a look at the history -- and future -- of DC Comics.

Tonight: for those of you who are new to the channel, we thought we'd go through a little of our history as well as look forward into some of the things we have planned for 2020.

In the wake of "Mad" Mike Hughes dying in an attempt to prove the Earth is flat, we thought we'd take the opportunity to discuss some of the thinking behind this and other terrible theories -- and the bad science that goes with some of the best science fiction in the history of the genre.

On this Presidents Day 2020, we take a look at the many presidents and heads of state who have appeared in genre stories. From President Beck in DEEP IMPACT to President Scroob in SPACEBALLS and all points in between, there have been good ones and ... not-so-good ones.

Back to our regular schedule. Tonight, we discuss the Oscars -- who watched? -- and get into our picks for the best science fiction, fantasy, and horror films of 2019. What's on your "best of" list?

A special Thursday night edition with Mr. Harvey and Mrs. Boss! This time out, the discussion turns to a massive list of the genre productions that are (supposedly) coming to us in the next couple of years. But are they? Are they really? Some of the titles on this list have been in development hell for a very long time. Social Media: https://www.facebook.com/SciFi4MeSalaciousCrumbs/ http://www.ins...

We take a look at the new Nicolas Cage film, THE COLOR OUT OF SPACE, directed by Richard Stanley, along with other Lovecraftian things -- and then we'll present a special screening of our own short film, THE STATEMENT OF RANDOLPH CARTER!

We've seen a lot of this lately: movies and television shows that are now being described as "reimagined" versions of the originals. Are they better? Worse? Necessary? And it's not just in the filmed media. There are some literary examples as well.

We've been watching the fallout from the announcement that Collider Videos has cancelled a number of shows, fired a number of people, and received a number of complaints and criticisms.

This week, we take a closer look at the new GHOSTBUSTERS trailer and what it could mean for the franchise -- that is, IF there's a franchise. A lot could be riding on the success of this entry into the story universe.

Thanksgiving week! We appreciate a lot of things about getting to do what we do, and we talk about that a little this week. We also touch on the COPPA situation, plans for the holidays, and some of the things we enjoy about being genre fans. We even appreciate that one particular person who regularly gives us the thumbs down. Keep coming back! Social Media: http://www.facebook.com/scifi4me http://...

Here in Kansas City, a screening of GALAXY QUEST prompted us to look at the impact that movie's had on the STAR TREK community, and gives us an entry point into talking about how fandom has changed and grown over the years. Fandom has certainly changed since back in the days when we'd be ridiculed, berated, sometimes bullied. Now it's cool to be a fan of the band, and we take a look at how things...
