Ringer continues to move towards its first season endgame. With ‘That Woman’s Never Been A Victim Her Entire Life’, the show delivers a surprisingly solid episode – albeit slightly less exciting – episode that begins to tie events together. It’s still Ringer, though, so there remains some truly aggravating moments.

On Wednesday, March 14, I was invited, along with a host of other journalists/bloggers, to speak with Lost Girl stars Anna Silk (Bo), Kris Holden-Ried (Dyson) and Ksenia Solo (Kenzi) about the amazing reception the series has received around the world, the benefits and drawbacks of working in science-fiction and how Silk spent her birthday naked and covered in blood.

In recent years Disney hasn’t had a big role to play in the live-action, big-budget feature film business.
