In tonight’s all-new episode of The Walking Dead, Yumiko, played by Eleanor Matsuura, was being forced by Pamela Milton (Laila Robins) to be the prosecutor in Eugene (Josh McDermitt)’s case, as he is being blamed for the events leading to her son’s death. However, at the eleventh hour, while speaking publicly to make the announcement, she instead says she will be defending him.

According to Matsuura, who recently spoke with SciFi Vision, the plan only occurred to Yumiko in the moment, and she loves that relentlessness. “I think for so much of the episode, Yumiko feels like her back's against the wall,” the actress told the site. “She really doesn't know what to do. Pamela has played a blinder. Whatever the chess move is, it's not quite checkmate, but it's not looking great…It's only once I've stood up on the podium that I realize that actually being in public is my biggest way to stay safe…I realize in that moment, Pamela is not going to stop me. I have free speech so I can be like, ‘actually, I'm going to turn this around.’”

The actress teased for fans to “be prepared to be surprised” for what is to come next and to “expect the unexpected.”

Note: I’m going to write this fairly spoiler free and leave out the big things, but if you want to stay completely spoiler free, read after it airs tonight.

Tonight, BBC America airs the new special “The Power of the Doctor,” which aired earlier today in the UK. The episode marks Jodie Whittaker’s final episode as the Doctor. In the feature-length episode, the Doctor battles not only her greatest enemies, but her arch nemesis, The Master (Sacha Dhawan).

If you’ve read my reviews, you know I love the series, and there is a lot to love about Chris Chibnall’s final episode. The episode has tons of shock and awe, but unfortunately, some people may think that’s all it is. “The Timeless Child” really split fans in a way an episode hadn’t in a long time, maybe ever, and while this episode doesn’t rewrite history or retcon anything (thankfully) it does feel a bit like Chibnall is throwing everything in to make an epic end. The problem is, it’s two-sided. It’s the centennial special, and not only his last episode, but Whittaker’s as well, so he should be pulling out the big guns and making a bang. The problem is, the Daleks, the Cybermen, and even more so, the Master, are huge villains in Doctor Who mythology, and they pack so much more of a punch when they are used sparingly, because they are something that as a fan you look forward to. The issue to me is they’ve been overused in the series so much lately that they don’t feel as special anymore. The episode doesn’t shine as much as it should, because that makes it feel a bit repetitive. That all being said, even though it does feel like a lot is packed in there, I personally really enjoyed this one. It does have a follow through and is vastly superior to the Flux storyline that a lot of people (at times myself included) picked apart. It has a beginning, middle, and end and doesn’t jump all over the place like the former.

The Emmy Award-winning series Ghostwriter returns today to Apple TV+ featuring a new cast and story. In season three, a ghost haunting the neighborhood book store releases fictional characters into the world, starting with characters inspired by L. Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Friends Nia (Princess Mapp), Charlie (Daire McLeod), and Samir (Nour Assaf) must work together to solve the mystery of the ghost’s unfinished business and put things right.

Today, Peacock released the second season of the series One of Us is Lying, based on the book by Karen M. McManus. In season one, a student, Simon (Mark McKenna), was killed during detention, and four students spent the season trying to find out what really happened and prove their innocence, culminating in another student’s death. Although season two is not about figuring out the killer, that doesn’t mean that it isn’t just as thrilling. “Season two is about a killing that they did commit,” explained creator and executive producer Erica Saleh in a recent interview with SciFi Vision. “So, it's a little darker. It's a little twistier. They're trying to cover that up, and they find out at the end of season one that someone knows what they did…The mystery is who knows and how far is this person going to push them, and how far will they go to cover up what they did?”

SciFi Vision also spoke with the stars of the series about their respective roles. 

At the end of season one, the students decided that to help hide their secret they couldn’t be seen hanging out together, which in season two is tough for Nate (Cooper van Grootel) and Bronwyn (Marianly Tejada) who developed feelings for each other. The two spoke to the trajectory of their relationship in season two.

***The following interview contains spoilers for 1.03***

Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire, which recently premiered on AMC and AMC+, is a contemporary reimagining of the gothic novel that tells the tragic love story between vampire Lestat de Lioncourt (Sam Reid) when he falls for and turns Louis de Pointe du Lac (Jacob Anderson). What follows is an epic and bloody tale that includes the turning of now forever fourteen-year-old Claudia (Bailey Bass), all told via flashbacks to journalist Daniel Molloy (Eric Bogosian).

In tonight’s all-new episode of the series, Louis goes to visit his human sister, played by Kalyne Coleman, even though he wasn’t invited to her twins’ birthday party. Having not visited for six months, his mother tells him he isn’t welcome, and Grace’s husband, Levi (Christian Robinson), attempts to make him leave. Angered, Louis kicks the door open, and it flies off the hinges, leaving everyone terrified.

Is that the last straw for Grace? According to Coleman, who recently spoke with SciFi Vision, what happens in episode three is a “big transition” for Grace. “I think that Grace now understands that the changes that are happening with Louis are becoming violent, are becoming unsafe for her family in a way that she can't be okay with anymore,” the actress told the site. “She's tried to keep the connection. She's tried to show him that there's still space here. And there's so much that you don't see as far as the many attempts she's made toward Louis to reach out and tell him, ‘Please, trust me. What's going on? I'm your sister. Be here for my family. I want to be there for you.’ So, I think in that episode is when she realizes there has to be a line drawn. She has to protect herself and her family, because something darker is now happening.”

Reboot, created by Steven Levitan, Hulu decides to bring back and update a sitcom from the early 2000’s, “Step Right Up,” bringing the dysfunctional cast back together. The cast have changed, as have the times, and the group has to navigate their new roles while still dealing with old hangups.

Recently, stars Judy Greer and Johnny Knoxville, who play the stars of the sitcom, Bree Marie Jensen and Clay, spoke with SciFi Vision about working on the series, connecting with their characters, crazy mishaps on sets from their past, what reboots they’d like to see, and more.

Tonight, the new Supernatural spinoff, The Winchesters, comes to The CW. The series is obviously a prequel, but the question remained if it would be made to be different than the original and feel like its own thing, or if it would be more of an extension and feel like the same exact world. The creative team knew that they couldn’t recreate the original and they didn’t want to undo the mythology that always exists either. According to executive producer Robbie Thompson, the balance was something they discussed from the beginning with executive producers Jensen and Danneel Ackles. “They had this idea about the love story between John and Mary,” Thompson told SciFi Vision during a recent panel promoting the series. “I think the extent of those first conversations were a lot of, ‘How do we do this and not undo anything and not rewrite or or anything like that?’…We can't recreate Supernatural…We had to find a way to kind of carve our own path.  We do have a plan for that. We're not going to totally reveal all of it today, but our plan is to sort of pull that curtain back in our thirteenth episode.”

Thompson also talked to the challenges of differentiating their show and using Better Caul Saul and Breaking Bad as an example. “[Better Caul Saul]’s a show that obviously predates the events of Breaking Bad, but it exists in its own little bubble, in its own little universe,” the producer told the site. “…Because we are a show that deals with the supernatural and paranormal, we have a few more tricks up our sleeves that we can kind of take advantage of, and we'll be hinting at that throughout the season, and then really pulling it all back in episode thirteen to really let the audience in on what we've done.”
