Just a quick note – Television Zombies was nominated and selected as a finalist for the annual Parsec Awards. Out of 38 shows that were nominees, TVZ is one of the five finalists.

There’s an independent panel of judges that will vote on the winner which will be announced at Dragon*Con (September 3-6) in Atlanta. Pretty cool.

Check out the list of finalists here: http://parsecawards.com/2010finalists We’re happy to be nominated because it leads to some extra attention, so that’s pretty swell.

Caprica – Official Trailer for Season 1.5

chrispiers — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 13:41:46 +0000

Why call it season 1.5? It isn’t airing until January, one full year from when the show started. That says “season two” to me, but what do I know? I still really like this show. I hope it doesn’t lose any momentum.
