Two months after the premiere of its second season, DC Universe has announced a season 3 for the superhero series.
The show’s second season kicked off with Dick Grayson reviving the team – Gar/Beast Boy, Rachel/Raven, and Jason Todd/Robin – and moving them to San Francisco. The Titans’ resurrection also brought Slade Wilson/Deathstroke out of retirement with one goal – destroying the team.
New episodes of Titans are available every Friday on DC Universe. The third season is expected to debut in fall 2020.

HBO Orders Game of Thrones Prequel

10/30/2019

HBO has ordered a 10 episode season of a new series, 'House of the Dragon.' This Game of Thrones prequel takes place 300 years before the original series, and will focus on “the beginning of the end for House Targaryen.”
‘House of the Dragon’ was co-created by Martin and Ryan J. Condal (‘Colony’), based on a rejected spin-off proposal from ‘GoT’ producer Bryan Cogman. (He has since moved over to Amazon’s ‘Lord of the Rings’ series.) Martin’s book ‘Fire & Blood’ serves as the blueprint.

Happy 32nd Anniversary RISFC!

9/28/2019

Today marks the 32nd Anniversary of the Rhode Island Science Fiction Club. On this day in 1987, a merry bunch of SF fans gathered in a friend's home to watch the premiere of Star Trek:The Next Generation. Cable TV was just getting popular, flat screens were nowhere to be found, so we huddled around the TV set and were awed by the adventures of Captain Picard and his new Enterprise crew.
So Congratulations to the RISFC, and ST:TNG, as we celebrate 32 years of Sci-Fi fun!
