Alessandra Torresani and Sasha Roiz in Warehouse 13, Husbands premiere, Sanctuary trailer, and a new project for Genevieve Buechner

Just a heads-up before I start: now you can get updates from Caprica TV on Facebook, too, at Facebook.com/CapricaTV.

First off, big congrats to at Esai Morales on winning an award for Best Actor in a Feature Film at FilmOut San Diego's LGBT Film Festival, where Gun Hill Road also picked up the award for Best First Narrative Feature, and Judas Kiss won for Best Screenwriting.

Also congrats to Callum Keith Rennie on nabbing a Gemini for Best Performance by an Actor in a Continuing Leading Dramatic Role for Shattered, and to the Blackstone team on winning two awards this year. Carmen Moore posted a few photos from the event on Facebook.

And congratulations to David Weddle, Bradley Thompson and everyone else working on Alphas on getting picked up for a second season! No word yet if John Pyper-Ferguson will be recurring in season two, but he will appear as the leader of the rebel faction in the season finale (Sept. 26). From the casting sides for "Original Sin," yes, there is definitely a scene with him and David Strathairn to look forward to.

Last reminder: Luke Camilleri guests in this Monday's episode of Eureka (8 pm) and Alessandra Torresani and Sasha Roiz both appear in Warehouse 13 (9 pm). From Syfy's press release:
Caprica star Alessandra Torresani will guest star on Syfy’s hit series Warehouse 13, portraying a young girl with devastating hidden powers, on Monday, September 12 at 9PM (ET/PT).

In Monday’s episode “Shadows,” Megan’s (Torresani) destructive power seems to violently incinerate those around her. In trying to deal with this ability, Megan finds an unexpected confidante and friend in Claudia (Allison Scagliotti).

Anthony Michael Hall (“Sykes”), Sasha Roiz (“Marcus”) and Kate Mulgrew (“Jane”) also return to the Warehouse on September 12.

Jane Espenson did a bunch of interviews this week. She talked about Husbands, Once Upon a Time and Torchwood to VeryAware.com (more at the link):
There are other shows that get lauded for the fact that they prominently feature openly gay characters and yet we see them hide from actual same-sex intimacy. You’ve said that HUSBANDS is “ready for television, but television is not ready for it”. Is Husbands built to change that?
JE: Television may have changed since I said that. TV executives can be pretty good at reading the public and I’m seeing signs that they may be readier now. We certainly hoped that HUSBANDS would help bring about that change by demonstrating that there is an audience for this kind of story. But if that change is already happening, then that’s even better! (...)
