Imagine a warehouse in a remote part of America, which contains very special artifacts that can cause major damage if used in the wrong hands.
Now imagine two federal agents who suddenly find themselves working there, and being tasked with finding other powerful artifacts.
That’s the premise of Warehouse 13, a new show that may be Syfy’s next big thing.
A year ago, people got excited about Joss Whedon’s return to TV with Dollhouse, about a woman who can be anyone except herself.
When Joss came back for this year’s Comic-Con, the excitement was still there, and not just for the show.
It was for Dr. Horrible, the Buffy and Angel comic books, and everything he’s done for the past 12 years.
However, Joss showed he was excited, too "There’s never been a time," he said, "when the public can make its voice heard, like now."
He means how the public overrode the ratings, thanks to Twitter, MySpace, internet postings, and most importantly TiVo. All of that gave Echo and the Dollhouse a second season. However, Joss joked that it also ruined his summer vacation…and got a few apologies from the crowd. He’s now busy making the first few episodes for season two, starting with "Vows" on September 25th.

Also, thousands of people filled Ballroom 20 to see the U-S premiere of "Epitaph One", the episode Fox decided not to air. Some who got the DVD set already saw the episode, and discovered it’s a very different story. Soon, the crowd would find out, too.
Michael Westen is a spy without a job.
Naturally, he wants to get back in the game.
His girlfriend doesn’t want him to, because she thinks it will make things worse.
This, in a nutshell, is the rest of the summer season of Burn Notice, USA’s spy show that has gotten a big following. It’s so big, it took a spot at Comic-Con in 2009.
Somewhere, there is at least one Guild fan who wonders how the show’s logo would look like it it were really Felicia Day, Vincent Caso (Bladezz), Jeff Lewis (Vork), Amy Okuda (Tink), Sandeep Parikh (Zaboo), and Robin Thorson (Clara) instead of their cartoon selves.
