BREAKING NEWS today about the cancellation of "Stargate: Universe" by Syfy. It's sad news for fans of the show, but not really surprising to others who were watching ratings. Alpha Waves Radio comes to you LIVE with host Michael Hinman beginning at 9:30 p.m. ET to talk about the cancellation, what's next for the Stargate franchise, and see what's remaining for genre fans.

The biggest question on everyone's mind is who will play a young William Adama in the upcoming Syfy spinoff series 'Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome.' One of the role's top candidates (according to Mark Stern) joins Michael Hinman to talk about it on Alpha Waves Radio. Then stay tuned afterward for the live Alpha Waves Rewind with Tony Tellado!

Wednesday's news that Syfy would cancel its "Battlestar Galactica" spinoff series "Caprica" was not so shocking, but it has still rippled through the genre fandom in a negative way. We talk to some of the people who covered, loved or hated the show, and what this might mean for Battlestar fans now. And we're LIVE!

Although Time Magazine called Alpha Waves Radio the most boring show on the planet, you our devoted (and brainwashed) listeners don't think so. At least we hope not.

The fall season is here, so when you want to take a break from watching some of the new shows, come and hear some of the funny things we've done on Alpha Waves Radio over the years (or at least what we thought was funny), and hear host Michael Hinman from some other radio appearances as well. You don't want to miss it!

Michael Hinman travels to Seattle for a visit to the set of "Judas Kiss," the new independent film currently in production from J.T. Tepnapa and Carlos Pedraza. This show will feature many of the people involved with the film, including Richard Harmon and Genevieve Buechner ("Caprica"), Timo DesCamps, Charlie David, Ron Boyd, Tim Foutch as well as J.T. himself.
