09:55 - Doug Jones Talks Falling Skies, The Strain, Crimson Peak, & Hellboy 3
Thanks to richard dower for the heads up.
CB: Falling Skies is hitting it’s final season, what can we expect from it? Any big moments you can share?
DJ: Cochise has now developed friendships, especially by Tom Mason and by Noah Wyle and he’s observing this family unit and how that ripple effect goes outward and effects everyone around him. He’s quite touched by this human emotions thing, because the Volm are very non-intellectual, very get the job done, and now he sees people who are getting the job done while caring about each other at the same time. So, hey! This is different! I think if Cochise was on his home planet again he would be the one sitting in the tree writing poetry. He’s discovered that part of himself by seeing these human emotions so he kind of wants to stay and in season four, it came out that he stayed against his father’s will.
So, I’ve been here on Earth, not with my father’s blessing. So, episode four, this coming season, which will be happening sometime mid to late July, you will see a very large story line for Cochise in that episode where we get to visit dad and those issues will come to a boiling head. It’s a turning point for Cochise and my whole allegiance thing. Am I here on Earth to stay? Am I going to be going back home with my Volm people? That’s gonna be maybe hinted at, you’ll get more of an idea of that by the end of that episode. The writers really knock it out of the park. You’re gonna laugh, you’re gonna cry, you’re gonna feel all kinds of things by watching Cochise’s story.
The writers did a great job of adding some humor this year with this cultural clash that happens all the time, and also a great job of getting my storyline involved with some other people now. I was legitimate leadership. It was basically, you’d see me interacting with Tom Mason and Will Patton’s Colonel Weaver, those are my two main points, now I have more interaction with Dingaan, played by Treva Etienene, he’s another smart guy on the show so us smart guys have to collaborate a lot on what’s gonna happen next, or you know, whatever. And then there’s also some heartfelt story with Maggie, played by Sarah Carter, and then a little more interaction with the little son on the show, Ben Mason played by Connor Jessup. So they kind of spread the love a little but more this year for Cochise.
Is there another alien race coming this season?
Oh, right! That was hinted at, wasn’t it?

09:50 - Rizzoli & Isles - Episode 6.08 - David Ogden Stiers Cast as Maura's Adoptive Father
Rizzoli & Isles is introducing an important member of Maura Isles' (Sasha Alexander) family this season.
MAS*H vet David Ogden Stiers has been cast as her adoptive father, Arthur, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Though viewers have met Maura's biological parents, Paddy Doyle (John Doman) and Hope Martin (Sharon Lawrence), as well her adoptive mother, Constance (Jacqueline Bisset), throughout the years, little is known about her adoptive father.
"We spent a lot of time talking about who that person is," showrunner Jan Nash told THR. "We've seen all of the rest of the characters, why have we not seen that one? It gave us a really interesting opportunity to bring some conflict into the show for the Maura Isles character."
Stiers will make his debut in the eighth episode of the upcoming sixth seaso
