True Blood: Soon to be a True Classic?


OMAHA, NE – True Blood has been scaring up a nice chunk of America since its first episode on HBO in 2007. The Vampire Drama is loosely based on a series of books written by Charlaine Harris and produced by Alan Ball for HBO.  Earlier this month, HBO announced the upcoming 7th Season of True Blood will be its last.

During the course of True Blood’s run  it picked up numerous reviews and several awards. The show also explores several contemporary social issues, including discrimination and violence against minorities, including women and gays,  power of religion, the influence of the media, the importance of family and the search for an identity.

True Blood has built up a number of memorable characters and scenes over the course of its run.  This article has numerous wonderful scenes you should be sure and check out. My favorite is the Hoyt being glamored scene. And you know any scene with Rob Kazinksy is going to be a hot one!!!

While no one knows for sure what will happen in True Blood’s Seventh and final season, members of the cast dish out some possibilities in several interviews posted across the internet.  Here’s another article with some possible spoilers.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Still Chosen.


OMAHA, NE – Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Still Chosen after all these years! Buffy, created by Joss Whedon, had some of the best stories, fight scenes and acting during its run on UPN and The WB. Buffy had some of the best villains ever created! As a Buffy fan, you enjoyed the BIG BAD for an entire season, BIG BADS like Spike and Drusilla, Glory, The Mayor and The First.  Buffy also scored with great writing, some really memorable episodes and characters as well. Who can forget the timid and nerdy Willow growing into a powerful witch, and even one season’s BIG BAD!  Or Xander and his loyal friendship to the Scoobies?  During the course of the Buffy TV series, the show was cited as one of the best TV show of all time repeatedly, including eventually being named on  TV Guide’s Top Cult Show Ever. The show never won any nomination which angered fans and media critics year after year, after the show went off the air, the TV academy aimed to make things up to its cast and crew by staging a tribute event at its headquarters in North Hollywood, but Buffy herself, Sarah Michelle Gellar, didn’t show up.   I don’t blame her.  Buffy will always be tops in my mind, and millions of fans, too!

Buffy’s House was the location of many great scenes in the series, including falling in love with Angel, to building a base to fight The First.

Below, the unaired original Buffy pilot. Many fans don’t like it. I find it kind of endearing.  😀

How SuperNatural Stays SuperHot!!!


OMAHA, NE – Supernatural has become one of the hottest TV shows ever created in the mega-genre of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror.  And I’m not even referring to the hotness that is the show two stars, Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki. Supernatural was created to tackle some of America’s urban legends and has grown to be a powerhouse of a show in its own right, with some very rich storytelling of its own.  That growth continued through Season 8 which also opened some new doors for storytelling in Season 9. The following paragraphs and videos contain some spoilers from Season 8  and some spoilers of what is to come in Season 9.

Supernatural is still generating excitement as fans eagerly await for the show’s Season 9 premiere on Tuesday, October 9th, 2013.  An Enstarz article hints (spoilers) at some more story about the mysterious Men of Letters organization.  Its interesting to note how the show has kept up its signature habit of hiring fresh faced men to play various members of the Winchester family, with the latest addition of Gil McKinney as Henry Winchester, Sam and Dean Winchester‘s grandfather, from Season 8.

Supernatural buzz was highlighted throughout this year’s Comic Con Convention season. Some anticipation for the new season created when it was hinted a major rift between the brothers Winchester will emerge in the new Season 9 premiere. *I’m crossing my fingers that Dean’s gay.  😉 *

Welcome to The Sci-Fi Dominion!


Welcome to The Sci-Fi Dominion!  This blog will cover a broad genre, science fiction as well as fantasy and horror. It will attempt to keep up with current science fiction in tv and movies while reminiscing on wonderful shows from the past.  A few years ago I ran my own website, it was niche search engine for science fiction that had over 1600 websites in its directory, making it the 3rd largest scifi directory in existence at the time. Google was also getting into its groove at the time and my sci-fi directory was ranked #1 in its category.  I was very proud of it, but couldn’t keep up with all the work needed to maintain it.  It was huge undertaking for something that was supposed to be just a hobby so I had to let it go.  I have always wanted to get back into it though and I think this blog will be a nice, workable way of doing that.  😀  Especially with so much going in science fiction right now, the Star Trek reboot, Star Wars is about do another set of movies. I wish this blog had been around for Farscape, Babylon 5 and the re-imagined BattleStar Galactica, too!  Well, it will be around for the next big things to come up!! And don’t forget to like our Sci-Fi Dominion FaceBook Page!

Science Fiction, More Real Than Most Religions.
