      EXCERPT: IT'S hero time! Cartoon fans might recognise that refrain as the catchcry of animated superhero Ben 10, but it is also an apt description for this weekend's Supanova Pop Culture Expo in Brisbane.

        HBO CANADA PRESENTS LIVING IN YOUR CAR, ONE MAN’S KARMIC FALL FROM THE HIGH LIFE TO THE HIGHWAY


        Created and written by George F. Walker, Dani Romain and Joseph Kay

        Directed and executive produced by legendary Canadian comedic talent David Steinberg

        New Canadian original series from Movie Central and The Movie Network premieres Friday, May 7 at 9:30 p.m. ET/MT on HBO Canada

        Online audiences get a sneak peek when www.hbocanada.com hosts the first episode for two-weeks starting Friday, April 23

        (Toronto, Canada) – Steve Unger had it all – money, a beautiful wife, a mansion, and a great kid – until greed got in the way. Premiering Friday, May 7 at 9:30 p.m. ET/MT on HBO Canada, a multiplex channel of Corus Entertainment’s Movie Central (Western Canada) and Astral Media’s The Movie Network (Eastern Canada), Living In Your Car is the offbeat story of one corrupt business mogul’s fall from grace and his faltering and often pathetic attempts to regain the life he lost.

        “With Living In Your Car’s timely and poignant theme, we are thrilled to give our viewers another great Canadian produced series on our HBO Canada service,” said Erica Benson, Vice President Programming, Movie Central. “This show has given us another opportunity to work with the powerhouse team of George Walker and Dani Romain, and having the superbly talented David Steinberg on board only adds to the great calibre of Canadian talent working in homegrown pay TV.”

        “Living in Your Car comes from one of the most insightful, creative teams working anywhere in television, and also has the distinction of being the project that lured the inimitable talents of David Steinberg back to Canada,” said Diane Boehme, Director, Canadian Independent Productions, Astral Television Networks. “We’re proud to facilitate the love/hate relationship Canadians are sure to develop with Steve Unger.”

        With the unstable economy as a backdrop, Living In Your Car follows the winding karmic adventures of Steve Unger (John Ralston), a fallen corporate executive whose rule of the financial world comes to an abrupt halt when he is arrested and charged with fraud, obstruction and racketeering. After cutting a deal to get out of prison, Steve quickly realizes his old life no longer exists: his former colleagues shun him, his wife and daughter don’t want to live with him, and even his own parents refuse to help him. As he clings desperately to the last vestige of his former self – a luxury sedan – Steve finds himself under court order to teach an ethics class, forbidden from working in any position that involves other people’s money, and making a new home for himself in his car.

        Along for the tumultuous and often comedic ride are soon-to-be ex-wife Lori (Ingrid Kavelaars), daughter Kate (Mariah Horner), lawyer Neil Stiles (Colin Cunningham), and quirky “neighbour” Carol (Lucia Moniz).

        Living In Your Car is a 13-part, half-hour series from The Nightingale Company (The Line, Chicks with Sticks, Lipstick & Dynamite) and Walker/Romain Productions, created by George F. Walker, Dani Romain (This Is Wonderland, The Line) and Joseph Kay, and written by Walker, Romain, Kay and Courtney Jane Walker. The series is directed and executive produced by David Steinberg (Curb Your Enthusiasm, Weeds, Mad About You). The series is developed and produced with the financial participation of The Movie Network, Movie Central, the Canadian Television Fund and Rogers Cable Fund in association with BeActive.

        The series will premiere as part of the Friday night comedy line-up on HBO Canada with Less Than Kind at 8:30 p.m., The Ricky Gervais Show at 9 p.m. and followed by Real Time with Bill Maher at 10 p.m. and Funny or Die Presents at midnight.

        Living In Your Car will be simulcast on HBO Canada HD, and will be available on demand. The first episode will be available online at www.hbocanada.com for a two-week sneak peek starting Friday, April 23, and also on The Movie Network OnLine with Bell TV following its network premiere.

                2. THIS YEAR'S WORKSHOPS PART I: "SHIFT YOUR PERSPECTIVE; EXPERIENCE THE DIFFERENCE" - HOSTED BY LINDSAY WAGNER

                Polaris 24 is pleased to announce that on top of her regular appearances (onstage, Blastoff Party, autographs & photo sessions), our actor guest Lindsay Wagner will also be hosting her own special Meditation Workshop at Polaris 24, entitled "Shift Your Perspective; Experience The Difference". Here is a description of the workshop in Lindsay's own words:

                "We will be exploring one of the most empowering realizations I've had in my life. That is, our experience of any life circumstance is a function of personal perspective, more than the circumstance itself; that as our perspective changes so does our experience. There will be relaxation techniques, the Oneness Meditation - opening to the natural peace and joy from within and beautiful music."

                Please note that there is a $25 charge to attend this workshop, and that all workshop participants must be 18 years of age or older.

                -------------------------------------------------------

                3. THIS YEAR'S WORKSHOPS PART II: THE WRITERS WORKSHOP - HOSTED BY KELLEY ARMSTRONG

                "You Gotta Have Character" -- Writers Workshop By Author Guest Of Honour Kelley Armstrong

                A good plot is wonderful, but there's no sense putting your characters in physical, emotional or psychological danger if the reader doesn't care what happens to them. That's the professional feedback Author Guest of Honour Kelley Armstrong got about her first (and still unpublished) novel. So she threw herself into studying the art of character building. Today she has 16 books published in three New York Times bestselling series, and readers tell her it's her characters that keep them coming back for more. Want to know her secrets? Come to this workshop and find out! Limited space may be available at the convention, but to guarantee your spot, pre-register on our website at http://membership.tcon.ca

                Please note that all workshop participants must be 18 years of age or older.

                -------------------------------------------------------

                4. THIS YEAR'S WORKSHOPS PART III: HORROR MAKEUP WORKSHOP

                Do you agree that no zombie costume is complete without some authentic rotting flesh? Do you have a desire to fake all sorts of nasty-looking bites, bruises, and gashes to scare your friends and neighbours with? Want to see how the film industry makes it all look so cool and realistic?

                Then you want to come to our horror makeup workshop, where you can learn how to design some terrifyingly awesome effects for costuming, Halloween, or even stage and film! Conducted by Emily Schooley, who has over three years of experience in horror makeup artistry for film productions and ten years in theatre and special events, you will learn how to create realistic-looking cuts, burns, claw marks, rotting flesh, and more in this hands-on workshop. No previous makeup experience is necessary.

                There will be a $25 charge, to cover the cost of supplies, and all workshop participants must be 18 years of age or older. Visit the Pre-Registration page on our website (http://membership.tcon.ca) to sign up! Or, if you have already pre-registered and would like to add the Horror Makeup Workshop to your membership, please contact our Pre-Registration department at [email protected].

                -------------------------------------------------------

                5. THIS YEAR'S WORKSHOPS PART IV: IMPROV WORKSHOP

                Ever watch "Whose Line is it Anyway?" and think you could be funnier than Colin? Feel the need to ride the subway pantsless to see what people would do? Think that one or both of these sounds like a great idea? This introduction to the world of improv (or, spontaneous, unscripted performance) is a perfect place to develop your quick-thinking skills while having fun and playing a variety of games designed to get you moving and laughing.

                The workshop will be led by Emily Schooley, who has over twelve years of improv experience and who will be taking additional training with the Impatient Theatre Company starting in April 2010. Take this opportunity to explore your silly side and get to know some of your fellow congoers in a free-spirited and creative environment.

                Space is limited, so be sure to select "Improv Workshop" when you fill in your online registration - or contact Programming at [email protected] to reserve your spot! Please note that all workshop participants must be 18 years of age or older.

                          SG1 - Total SciFi Online: Morena Baccarin Interview:

                          At Total SciFi Online:

                          (Please follow the link for the complete interview.)

                          Wednesday 07 April 2010

                          Morena Baccarin: "People are really in for a thrill…"


                          Rio-born actress Morena Baccarin is no stranger to sci-fi, having played iconic roles in Firefly (as Inara Serra) and Stargate SG-1 (as the villainous Adria). Her latest role is Anna, the beautiful alien leader in the US remake of V. She took time out to speak to Abbie Bernstein on the Warner Brothers lot in Burbank, where the show is filmed…


                          Were you a fan of the original V series?

                          MB: "I was a big fan of it when I was growing up. It was really, really creepy!"

                          You're playing a version of the Diana character that Jane Badler played in the original, but your character's called Anna…

                          MB: "Yep. It's supposed to be just a re-imagining of the old series."


                          How does Anna differ from Diana?

                          MB: "I have a different take on the character, because I haven't seen the original show since I was six years old and this is a whole other show. It's similar in the sense we're both aliens, I guess, but I think Anna is seen more as a world leader – the leader of her nation and her people, a diplomat –
                          whereas I think that Diana was more strictly evil. I have big shoes to fill as being the face of what people want to see [Anna has made her appearance appealing to humans].

                          There's no way to prepare how to play an alien. I did some research, but there's not a lot out there [laughs]. So I just am trying my best to be as trustworthy as I can be and to be what I would like somebody to be like if they were to come down to Earth.

                          I think there's an aspect of a politician in that, because you need to embody what everybody of every nationality and persuasion wants to see, and at the same time you have your own agenda..."



                          ... V is currently airing on ABC in the US. It begins airing on the Sci Fi
                          Channel on 13 April 2010 in the UK.

                                http://www2.canada.com/surreynow/new...6-dfc21b25a547

No doubt about it, Hyslop is one of Canada's biggest musical theatre stars. And he can tap dance. In fact, he is this year's honoree as well as performer. Other performers featured in Simply Tap are Brock Jellison (Olympic opening ceremonies soloist, Tap Dogs), Joel Hanna (Riverdance, Revolution-The Show), Heather Cornell (Manhattan Tap), Keri Minty, Shelley Stewart-Hunt, MacKenzie Greenwell, Danny Nielsen, Michael Boston, Lindsay Sterk (Olympic opening ceremonies), Jennifer Bishop, Vancouver Tap Ensemble, Jim Hibbard (BC Entertainment Hall of Fame) and Teryl Rothery (Stargate). Add about a dozen of the best amateur groups from Metro Vancouver, and there you have a show. Tickets are $24 for seniors, students and West Coast Tap Dance Collective members; all others, $29 at vancouvertix.com, or call 604-629-8849. A limited number of tickets are available at DanceCraft, #103-12827 76th Ave., Surrey
