No, the actor that played Dr. Fredrick Chilton in The Silence of the Lambs was Anthony Heald ([www.imdb.com]).

Rule number 2: The Double Tap

I don't know if the broadcast was all due to Gary and his Alpha ability. He says something as he's handing the pen/camera/transmitter to Rosen near the end. Sounds something like "... straight from Klaus Works" or something like that.

I don't think there was any figuring. It likely was a mutation and one that could be passed to descending generations. The beetles that laid the shield eggs in addition to the normal eggs had a greater survivability, so their offspring carrying the same mutation were able to breed and continue the mutation. Who knows…

Firefly seems to have been the Joss Whedon show that was almost fully realized from the beginning. His other programs (Buffy, Angel, and Dollhouse) took a while to really get settled in what they wanted to be. I've never felt this way with Firefly. It's hard to tell how the plots would have developed if the show had…

It comes close to Russel Edgington's spine-ripping scene last season.

I thought she called him a "honky tonk".

"Festival Massacre a Tragic Mistake" says Suspect

Or the fact that Amy never referenced the Doctor coming to aid her in her own fears (the crack in the wall). I was waiting the whole episode for that connection to be made, or maybe to have Amy share some sympathy with the boy.

The Twilight Zone

Am I the only one that liked the Bellefleur intervention? It just proves how awesome Terry is as a character - he's crazy as a loon and he knows it, but he still tries so hard to do the right thing. I thought it was a great scene grounded in reality surrounded by all the batshit craziness going on elsewhere. It shows…

I'm actually a big fan of natural burials: [en.wikipedia.org]

Doesn't sound like a remake since the BBC show was called Jekyll. And the premise is completely different. Sounds like they're going back to the original source material...

YES! It's like the directors have just let her go absolutely nuts with a crazy character and it is so wonderful!

It helps that F&SF is already designed in a format that can easily make the transition. It's closer to the design of paperbacks than what most people would recognize as a magazine

Anyone else catch the "Throw Mama from the Train" vibe when Kilmer was trying to figure out the starting sentence? I loved "The night was humid."

This was also a good point to show how relatively weak Bill is compared to the other vamps around him. His power comes from the fact that he's king, but if there was a drag through the mud, knuckles-to-fangs fight, he'd likely lose. All the other vamps around him in power seem much older. Eric literally tore into Bill…

If these things are so super fertile, why aren't we looking at ways to make biofuels from them? Instead of, you know, one of the world's major food crops? I remember seeing something a couple years ago about scientists looking into using kudzu for biofuels too - whatever happened to that?

I think they're referring to two separate events that are likely related. The Spanish Massacre is probably a very specific event where some crazy-powerful necromancer went all nuts on the vampires. The Spanish Inquisition was a period of time where the Catholic Church and its Inquisitors pretty much had their way with…

I realized something that may be playing a factor in this. Next year the Summer Olympics are to be hosted in London. It could be possible that BBC is looking to focus more of its resources in that direction, meaning a lower budget for Doctor Who. It could be that they decided to work with a half budget and do better…
