Exclusive Interview: Katee Sackhoff on Sexy Evil Genius
4-9-2013
Is there anyone you’re hoping they can get for that?
Oh my god, yeah, there’s a slew. There’s such a slew. I’m such a few fan of Milla [Jovovich]. I’m a huge fan of Kate Beckinsale. Sigourney Weaver gets me excited. Angelina Jolie… There’s just so many women that do tough really well. Actually, there’s not so many, there’s a handful, but I think that if we can get that handful we’re going to have a great movie.

Exclusive: Battlestar's Michael Trucco Reunites With Tricia Helfer on ABC's Killer Women Pilot
3-8-2013
Based on the Argentine series Mujeres Asesinas, the project follows Molly Parker, the only woman among the notoriously male Texas Rangers. Described as a ballsy, beautiful badass, Molly knows how to get to the truth and isn’t afraid to ruffle a few feathers to do so.Trucco will play Molly’s older brother, Billy, who is married to her BFF Nessa (played by Marta Milans). The actor’s recent TV credits include arcs on Revenge, How I Met Your Mother and Castle, and a co-starring role on USA Network’s Fairly Legal.

Listen to Edward James Olmos awesomely perform the original Battlestar Galactica’s closing narration...1-25-2013
One thing show creator Ron Moore didn't bring over from the original Battlestar Galactica TV series to his critically acclaimed Syfy remake was the show's original ending narration. But clearly at one point he was thinking about including it, because the By Your Command Facebook page dug up this recording of Edward James Olmos, who of course played the hard-drinkin' Commander Adama, performing the dialogue. It was probably a bit too hokey for Moore's supremely dark vision of the show, but it's still fun to see. Er, hear.

Canada's Tricia Helfer is ready to soar...1-8-2013 
Helfer credits the Battlestar scripts for the show's success. "It was a smartly written show that tackled some pretty heavy subject matter."While fans associate her with the show, Helfer is happy casting directors don't. "I'm a lot different than Six. I made her more precise and slinky and talk a bit different than me. Slower and more calculated," she recalled. "I was making a character. So when I walk into a room to read for [a part as] a lawyer, it's not like they're looking at Six."Having experienced the demands of working on a TV series, Helfer is anxious to try a big studio movie. "In many ways, the fast and furious can be exhilarating and forces you to go with your gut more, but I would like the liberty of having the time prepping," she explained. "Sitcom hours are silly easy compared to drama. Whenever an actor on a sitcom complains, I feel like smacking them!"

WATCH: Tricia Helfer Calls Seal Hunt ‘Asinine and Barbaric’\
12-20-2012
Actress Tricia Helfer took some time on the red carpet at the HSUS gala to chat with us about her animal rescue work, plans for building an eco dream home, almost vegetarian diet and feelings as a Canadian about the annual the seal hunt.We particularly loved her strong words about the highly controversial seal hunt that takes place in her home country each year. Helfer had never publicly commented on the subject before, but was perfectly happy to make her position clear. She told us, “I do think it’s completely asinine and barbaric and, and in this day and age there is no reason for it. So I have no problem saying I’m against it.”

11-12-2012
Dynamite Entertainment announced a number of new titles prior to and during New York Comic Con, helmed by heavyweights like Mark Waid, Rick Remender, Garth Ennis and Andy Diggle, but the publisher went out of this world to tap talent for the renewal of its classic "Battlestar Galactica" series.

Battlestar's Helfer and Sackhoff team up for sexy charity calendar
10-31-2012
I know we all miss the awesome sci-fi action and intrigue from Ron Moore's critically acclaimed reboot of Battlestar Galactica. But some viewers are also surely missing a few of the lovely actresses who called the series home. Not to worry, Battlestar junkies—Tricia Helfer and Katee Sackhoff are here to help, thanks to a sexy new charity calendar.The calendar idea came about as a way to raise money for Acting Outlaws, with profits going to a variety of charities that Helfer and Sackhoff support.It seems like a great project, and anything to raise money for charity is a good thing. Plus, considering the fan boy-love that already exists for these two from their roles in BSG, you'd have to think this project will do pretty well.
The calendar is available to order right here. In case you still need convincing, here are a few of the tasteful shots that are included (just a heads-up, some of these could be considered NSFW). Also, I'd be willing to bet all the cash in my bank account that the motorcycle driver below did stop for those hitchhikers

Abnett, Lanning board 'Battlestar Galactica' revival
10-10-2012
 Dust off your old-school Cylon action figures. Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning are bringing the original Battlestar Galactica backThe two comic-book scribes, whose sci-fi bona fides include Legion of Super-Heroes, Guardians of the Galaxy and the current Hypernaturals series, have signed on with Dynamite Entertainment to do an all-new book next year based on the original-recipe Battlestar Galactica from 1978. BSG was rebooted as a popular series in the 2000s, but Abnett and Lanning are focusing on the old ABC show that featured Apollo (Richard Hatch), Starbuck (Dirk Benedict), Adama (Lorne Greene) and the rest of the crew of the starship Galactica as it ventures toward Earth and avoids the evil alien cyborgs known as Cylons that are at war with the human colonies.

Katee Sackhoff Cast in The Female Expendables...10-7-2012 
The Female Expendables, sometimes called "The Expenda-Belles" in certain circles, is moving forward very, very quickly. The counterpoint to Sylvester Stallone's boy's club action franchise was only officially announced on August 20, with no director attached and a screenplay being developed by relative newcomer Dutch Southern, but casting is heavily underway with Gina Carano already attached and now joined by Katee Sackhoff, the woman who overcame fan stigma when she took on...

Tricia Helfer Bikini Twit Pic
Despite what some of you might think, I’m not much of a nerd, I’ve touched a woman before, but I know that this Tricia Helfer chick is best known for playing some sort of cyborg hottie on Battlestar Galactica and she’s probably got a whole weird fan club just waiting for sexy shots of her so I had to post this one for them. It’s only one shot, but she’s showing off her quality bikini body on the beach so that should be good enough. I wouldn’t mind defragging her hard drive.

If you’re a Battlestar fan with $100 to blow on a completely ridiculous item, head on over to Suptertrone’s Etsy shop to pick up this Cylon toilet paper holder. As you will see in the demo video after the break, it features working LED eyes. That’s right, this Cylon is watching you poop.
