Betwixt is now Changelings / Review of pilot episode
Betwixt Name Change
THE CW have changed the title of the tv show BETWIXT to CHANGELINGS.
As you may remember, Aaron played Detective Jim Frakes in the pilot episode and we are just waiting to hear if THE CW is going to pick it up to become a series. Apparently the announcement will be made on the morning of May 20th, 2010.

If you know anything about me, you know that my interest is always piqued when there’s something supernatural afoot in a TV show. Just so we’re clear.
There are some interesting character turns and cliffhangers presented at the end of the draft of the pilot I read, as well as love triangle set up. So I see the series… and I’m incredibly interested in seeing what happens next on Betwixt, though I’m not sure how long that interest will remain. The pilot is one of those things that seems to do too much and give too much away and progress the plot too quickly. That kind of thing can be AWESOME for a pilot and can lead to a really lame series that spins its wheels too much, can lead to an AWESOME first season and then the story feels played and burnt out… or the writers can rise above and keep the series going strong. Or the pilot can come in incredibly confusing / long / in need of cuts and fixes.

THE BRIDGE: Email CTV for a 2nd season
Aaron wrote the below on his autograph table at the Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo.
I know it doesn’t even have an air date for the USA yet but could everyone please help out and email CTV (programming@ctv.ca ) and ask them to pickup The Bridge for a second season? When emailing CTV we want them to think we’re Canadian viewers so don’t mention you’re in the USA (if you are) and ask when it will air on CBS because CTV have no control over that.

THE BRIDGE: airing December 2010 on CBS (???)
On April 18th 2010, CBS posted a link to a synopsis for THE BRIDGE. When you click on that link it reads December 2010 above the synopsis. Hopefully this doesn’t mean anything. FOX, NBC, ABC have already released their summer schedules. Now we just have to wait for CBS to release theirs and pray to the Lords of Kobol we don’t have to wait until December 2010 to watch The Bridge :(
UPDATE (April 26th): Hmmmmm, now the date reads December 2009.
THE BRIDGE: writer John McFetridge
This is kinda OT but I wanted to share some news about one of the writers from THE BRIDGE.
LET IT RIDE, the third book by ‘The Bridge’ writer John McFetridge is featured this week on the Barnes and Noble Book Club blog. John wrote 1×04: The Unguarded Moment and tonight’s episode 1×09: Painted Ladies.
Barnes & Noble Book Club – Maple Leaf Crime
NOTE: John’s book is titled LET IT RIDE in the USA. In CANADA it is titled SWAP.
