This week: We take some air time to round up some of the awesome TV we’ve been watching over the last couple of months including Caprica, Chuck, Big Bang Theory, and Sanctuary. We wrap up the fantasy sci-fi challenge with an awards ceremony. And we take some sweet listener calls. And we run down the week in geek, including new news on the Riddick sequel front, Daft Punk’s who-else-could-possibly-do-this-as-well tap for the Tron Legacy soundtrack, new release dates for Spiderman 4 and Trek 12 (or 2, depending on how you look at it), and a movie release battle you’ll probably never see.

We tackle fantasy sci-fi challenge number two with another round of, um, unique solutions to an age old problem. And we take in 1953′s War of the Worlds in our continuing classic sci-fi arc. We also run down the week in geek, including new Halo Reach details, Sean’s take on the in-game sword-wielding dominatrix Bayonetta, NPH’s Big Gay Battle win, and Twilight’s affect on dog owners.
