Paranormal Witness is back with a twelve episode second season on Syfy. Executive Producer, Mark Lewis, spoke with Christiane Elin of SciFi Vision about the new season.

The second season trumps the first season according to Lewis. The stories are more varied, higher octane, and more terrifying. Mark conceded they learned a lot from the first season and about storytelling and the way the show should look. He feels Paranormal Witness has gone from strength to strength.

Paranormal Witness producers spent time listening to the fans and social media and they were overwhelmed by the fan reaction. It was clear to see what the audience liked the most, and they are catering season two to exactly that.

Falling Skies, which recently entered its second season on TNT, focuses on the lives of the survivors of an alien invasion, the Second Mass resistance group, made up of both soldiers and civilians. They are led by Captain Weaver (Will Patton) and unlikely leader Tom Mason (Noah Wyle), former college professor and father of three.

Last season the aliens kidnapped many of the children and "harnessed" them, putting them under their control. Some of the children who were harnessed, including Mason's middle son, Ben, were rescued. The harness, however, could not be completely removed from Ben's spine.

The actor who plays Ben Mason, Connor Jessup, recently talked to Jamie Ruby of SciFi Vision about season two in an exclusive interview.

This Sunday Falling Skies returns to TNT for a second season, kicking off with a two-hour premiere. The series follows a group of survivors after an alien invasion. At the end of season one, Tom Mason (Noah Wyle), professor and father of three, voluntarily boarded an alien spaceship. Tonight's episode takes place three months later. With Mason still gone, it's up his eldest son, Hal, played by Drew Roy, to step up.

Roy, who is known for his work in television on series such as Lincoln Heights and Hannah Montana, and on film in movies such as Costa Rican Summer and Secretariat, talked to Jamie Ruby in an exclusive interview about what is coming up this season for his character.

The show was a global hit when it premiered in 1982. It's been three decades, but the huggable Care Bears and their "belly badges" are back to celebrate their 30th anniversary with an all new television series. The show, which recently premiered on The Hub, is a 3-D animation that features everyone's favorite bears in the land of Care-a-lot, the high-above-the-earth home of the bears. The all new adventure series that comes from American Greetings will be different than the original, including new characters, and appeal to the whole family. Both children and their parents who remember the original from their own childhood can enjoy discovering, or rediscovering, the magical world.

Exclusive Interview with Caity Lotz of The Pact

If you’re looking for a good scare this summer, check out The Pact, the first feature-length film from writer/director Nicolas McCarthy. Based on McCarthy’s short film of the same name, The Pact takes the classic haunted house story and gives it a dark twist.

Caity Lotz stars as Annie, a young woman who has spent most of her life trying to forget an unhappy childhood. Summoned home, Annie arrives to find that her older sister has gone missing.

“She has basically been avoiding her past,” explains Lotz. “That’s been the goal of her life and now all of a sudden she has to go home to deal with [the death of her abusive mother].

“Once she gets home, things start getting really weird and her sister disappears. And all of a sudden there’s a ghost in her childhood home - who she thinks is her mom - and she tries to find her sister and figure out what happened.”

And that is when things take a very sinister turn. What might at first seem like standard fare – psychic, Ouija board, bumps in the night – soon gives way to a visually compelling, psychological thriller.

Tonight the highly anticipated fifth season of True Blood will premiere on HBO. The series, which boasts a blend of romance, suspense, mystery, and humor, takes place
in a world where vampires can survive on synthetic blood and have "come out of the coffin," so to speak, to live alongside humans.

This season the show welcomes some new faces, including Carolyn Hennesy as Texan Vampire Authority member Rosalyn Harris.

Hennesy, who many fans will know from shows such as General Hospital and Cougar Town, recently talked to Jamie Ruby of SciFi Vision in an exclusive interview to talk about her new role.

One of The Hub's newest series, Kaijudo: Rise of the Duel Masters, premiered this weekend. The new original animated series is a re-imagination of the Wizards of the Coast trading card game, Duel Masters.

The series follows the adventures of Ray, voiced by Scott Wolf, a fourteen year-old with the ability to tame and duel alongside fantastical creatures that come from a parallel universe. He is helped by his friends Allie (Kari Wahlgren) and Gabe (Phil LaMarr) to stop the evil forces, the Choten, that seek to capture and enslave the creatures, as well as to maintain the crumbling veil between the worlds and keep the creatures from Earth. To do so they must master the art of Kaijudo.

The new series also features multi-platform entertainment for the whole family, including an online game and a trading card game.
