Scoop: Have we lost 'Faith'?


Its Jossverse Week everybody! You're probably wondering what happened to all the Jossverse shows this fall, well finally I have some answers; some exciting news, some great news, and some bad news. Lets start with the network's very first Jossverse series: Faith the Vampire Slayer!

"Its been a real struggle getting back onto the project," Malone claimed, "the episode guide has been staring at me for months now but I just can't seem to get an episode done." Our we about to lose our Faith here? After just two seasons of the series? Creator Jack Malone told us not to worry!

"I have a huge third season planned and I'm not going to throw that away."
In fact, the Network has come to the decision to cut back a few episodes to see that the second season can end this year with the third starting sooner rather than later. "I believe there will now be about 15 episodes, possibly 16, but we've decided to cut the season short."

Malone concluded with saying he'll be changing it up a bit for the final few episodes, and on the subject of Oz's return (which was hyped throughout the whole season after he departed the show), he said, and I quote, "we'll bring him back first episode in the season's return."

So that's it for Faith the Vampire Slayer, everybody. We haven't lost our bad ass biatch yet!

Scoop: Checkmate, Deadshot, Plus More!


"It was so fun getting to kick some ass..."

Spoilers for the upcoming episode "Deadshot" ( the episode that introduces a new DC Comics Character into the universe) have been hitting the web like crazy. And the most talked about concept of the episode that has the fans going wild is Chloe Sullivan as the new Green Arrow!

"Well she's not the new Green Arrow," actress Allison Mack laughed, "she's just stepping out into the field a bit more in this episode, and taking on the big bad herself - without the use of computers!" Mack went on to say that the episode was a blast to do, and she really had fun working with ABC's Lost star Terry O'Quinn. "He was fantastic! Such an inspiration, and he really sunk his teeth into the character."

"I like to say the episode tells three different stories. The first involves Chloe and Oliver, which constantly develops softly throughout the course of the episode, but being the main point of Chloe's actions," Mack explained, "the second story, of course, involves Deadshot - Floyd Lawton. His background is shared to the audience, lightly, without saying too much to detract from the story at hand, which with him, involves mainly Chloe and Emil."

"The final story that runs through this episode is the amazing Perry and Mia duo, that I loved so much when reading," she continued, "it involves Checkmate, blackmail, kidnapping, so much going on there. And I know Michael was fun to really show a more macho side to his character!"

Scoop: 'The Emerald Archer' Justin Hartley!


Justin Hartley, actor on the VPN's most acclaimed series Watchtower, was wonderful enough to talk about this extraordinary new series, in which he plays DC Comics Character Oliver Queen (The Green Arrow), and several arcs that will be running throughout the first half.

"I'm really excited to carry out this character's story in a way that doesn't have to be put to the side to limelight Superman," Hartley told VPtoday, "and with him being a central character of the show, its been fun exploring the new stories told with Oliver Queen." The actor went on to say that he's loving the feedback from the premiere and can't wait for the fans to really see the show unravel itself, and lead into the mid-season finale.

"There's a lot planned in this first half. The key points it hits on is relationships, and what kind of relationships Chloe shares with each character; and how they develop and build up so that by the time the war between them and Emil starts, everyone has been established to have some sort of relationship with Chloe Sullivan," he revealed. Asking him about the juicy tidbit that was revealed yesterday by series creator Jack Malone, Hartley told VPtoday that in the fourth episode, and I quote, "the Chlollie relationship really hits its high point!"

And how does he view this iconic relationship?

"I think Chloe really grounds him, and sets him straight," he answered, "we all know Oliver to be a playboy, and the majority of the time he puts his identity as Green Arrow ahead of everything else, which is what ruined his relationship with Lois back on Smallville. But this time, Chloe and Oliver can really connect and they understand each other," he continued. "Each and every script we've been receiving has made me love the two as a couple more and more, and from what I've been told by the producers, there's a lot more between the two on its way that even carries out in the second half of the season!"

So, what's your thoughts on the Chlollie relationship? Do you think Chloe's a keeper for our favourite bachelour playboy? Head on over to the Spoilers & Speculation thread of 'Watchtower' and discuss the news!

Scoop: 'Eyes Only' on 'Watchtower'!


This May, Chloe Sullivan makes her transition into her very own virtual series, taking place after the hit CW Series 'Smallville'. With only a few more weeks left before its premiere, we've been bombarded with questions that now we'll be taking the time to answer! Are you ready for this 'Eyes Only' scoop on Watchtower?

Question: I've always loved Chloe when she was at the Daily Planet! Now she's at Gotham Daily do we get our classic reporter gal back?

Great Question! My very reliable source tells me that you'll be seeing Chloe crack down on a big story in the series premiere, this may 24th! Not only that, but "we've just finished cracking down a story in the second half of the season which really digs into Chloe's journalistic roots."

Question: I'm a huge Chlollie fan but I've always loved reading fanfiction on the idea of Chloe and Bruce Wayne. Can we expect any Chruce, even just a slight touch of it?

"With all good superhero shows there's got to be angst," reveals executive producer Chris Davis, "and Watchtower will have its very own between Chloe, Oliver and Bruce that will stir up some trouble." So look like you'll not only get some Chruce, but a whole triangle seems to be forming between the three. Intrigued, you should be!

Question: Ack, I am so sick of seeing Chloe resort to running away from the big bad of the episode on Smallville. Please tell me Oliver teaches her a few moves! Please!

Having a sneak peek at the premiere myself I can tell you that Chloe will not only be behind the computer, but out in the field getting down and dirty like all heroes should be. "Chloe's spent years in a town where she was constantly put in danger, and has picked up on a few moves along the way," Jack [Malone] reveals, "however, she's nowhere near trained or ready to take on a threat by herself, but we hope to explore that as the series goes on."

Question: Is Emil really evil? He was so funny on Smallville, and I have a bit of crush on the guy.

"Emil has a different view on the world," executive producers Chris Davis and Jack Malone told VPtoday, "and although the season begins exploring his darker roots, as the smoke slowly clears between Chloe and her arch nemesis, we'll begin to see that he's not as bad as we thought." They continued by informing me that he's not planning to destroy the entire planet, but he wants to change the world for the better; however we all know those never go as planned. "He may be viewed as a tragic hero, or a tragic villain, either way he's trying to leave his legacy on the world as many scientists have, only with Chloe in the way he has to resort to some villainous actions."

Question: Can you confirm the DC Comic villain showing up in the fourth episode, still untitled.

I can. The episode is called "Deadshot" and the villain is of the same name -- should look him up. He'll be played by Terry O'Quinn from ABC's Lost.

Question: Will Mia take up the identity of Speedy?

"Mia has a long journey ahead of her," creator Jack Malone revealed, "and this first season really dives deep into her story and origins as best as possible." Questioned on the suit and title, they were very quiet, pulling an 'anything's possible' quote on us. Be sure to expect more spoilers on Mia and her persona 'Speedy' as the season goes on, and hopefully we'll get some good news.

Question: In Season Seven of Smallville, Chloe had meteor powers, that of a healer. Will those powers resurface?

Thanks for asking! Wonderful question! "So far, we're leaving that to the Smallville producers," executived producers Chris Davis and Jack Malone revealed, "but given the right story we might delve into that again, just don't know how exactly to mould that into this season." In other news, I've been given a confirmation that a series regular will fall victim to Emil's experiments, becoming a metahuman with powers. Who? I can't say, so you'll just have to wait and see. Which brings us to our final question...

Question: Not to rush you guys or anything, but we've been dying to see him on Smallville, and with news of him being on Watchtower, I have to ask -- will we see Batman this season!

"Unfortunately, no," producers revealed, "but you will see Bruce hitting several milestones leading him to becoming the Caped Crusader." Another reliable source told me they have it on good authority that the mid season finale will contain many cliffhangers, one of which involves Bruce that will tie the character closer to the mythology, and prepare him further to becoming Batman.

So thats it for this month's Q&A. Next month we'll be exploring 'Trinity' and the questions flooding in on that fantastic show!
