Medical dramas come with their own set of challenges. The professional jargon can bog down their overall dramatic impact. However, if made well, they can make us resonate with their pathos. The same happens with the 2024 New Zealand medical drama “A Mistake.” Based on Carl Shuker’s book of the same name, the film revolves around a fatal mistake that turns the lives of some medical professionals upside down. The film stars Elizabeth Banks in the lead role as medical surgeon Elizabeth Taylor. Besides her, the central cast includes Richard Crouchley, Simon McBurney, and Mickey Sumner.

Power Rangers Beast Morphers Episode 22

At this point Power Rangers holiday episodes aggressively exist. They’re there to fill the apparent requirement for holiday programming. They tie together some flashbacks, an original fight, and maybe a bunch of Sentai footage they had leftover. They’ve even been taking place after big finales recently, which while not always used to their full potential at least provide a unique look (for Power Rangers) into what happens after a usual season ends.

They also give us some time to reflect on the season that came before. In Beast Morphers case we get a fun adventure starring the Beast Bots and Steel. On the surface this doesn...

Last Thursday’s 40th Annual Saturn Awards was a big night for genre filmmaking. Career achievement awards went to Bryan Fuller, Malcolm McDowell, Greg Nicotero and author Mac Cushman and new categories, including Best Performance by a Younger Actor in a Television Series and Best Comic-to-Film Motion Picture took the stage for the first time. Collider was on the scene, hitting the red carpet to chat with established stars and up-and-comers alike. Our coverage continues with a triptych of interviews. First up is X-Men: Days of Future Past’s Colossus, Daniel Cudmore, who’s pushing The Legacy Virus as a sequel plot. Next up is Emmett Skilton, star of SyFy’s The Almighty Johnsons, who tells us about getting naked for the premiere episode. Finally, Seth Gabel explains why Salem is about misogyny and not an example of the same. Hit the jump for the full interviews and key quotes.

Syfy has scored two bonafide hits over the past few years with its acquired scripted series, Lost Girl and Continuum. It was also great that they acquired and aired Primeval: New World even though it was a one-season series, along with similarly-situated Sinbad.

Now Syfy has added another series to its list of acquireds, with the New Zealand series The Almighty Johnsons, about four modern-day brothers who have inherited the powers of Norse gods. It’s said to be a “compelling blend of fantasy and comedy” and “quirky”. I love ”quirky” but I reserve judgment as to whether or not this will qualify until I see it. I’ll definitely check them it out, but don’t we all kinda wish they could change the name?

Hang on, he’s in The Hobbit! The one on the left, that’s Dean O’Gorman, he’s Fili, one of the good looking dwarves!

“The Johnson brothers are back, and their quest to find Frigg and gain their full God powers continues. Along the way, several new and exciting variations will be explored and Axl will find himself on a more personal quest – to become Odin, he must first ‘become’ Odin… “

The Almighty Johnsons is a comedy-drama series about four brothers, raised in heartland New Zealand, who also happen to be the living incarnations of Norse Gods. They even have their own super-God-powers. Sort of – it’s just that their powers aren’t actually all that powerful. Putting Norse Gods right where they don’t want to be: in the bodies of a bunch of New Zealand lads saddled with a distinct lack of heroism and all the faults, flaws and desires of ordinary mortals,...

Remember Charmed? The Us television show about three sisters who were also witches? Well this is the male equivalent from Down Under.
