$21,000!! That’s how much Amanda Brugel’s Brug’s Army raised for their first ever charity event. The monies will go to the Blooview Children’s Hospital, which is just brilliant. But just as important for the fans who gave their money, they had a wonderful evening chatting and laughing with some of Canada’s best and brightest. Sue,…

Brug’s Army presents: Mingle For a Mission
Sue and I know how fortunate we are getting to meet some amazing people and then being able to call them our friends. One of them, the amazing Amanda Brugel, who has now been on our show 3 times(!) has created a non-profit organization dedicated to raising money for charities that have a strong focus…
Captain Canuck Webseries Indiegogo Launch!
The Great Hall, a gorgeous theater, sits in the west end of Toronto, only a couple of blocks from my own apartment. Members of the cast and the crew of the new animated webseries that will put Canadian superhero Captain Canuck on to the internet, including Lost Girl favorite Paul Amos, are present for…
Lost Girl S03E03 – Confaegion
James Thorpe pens this weeks episode, which may be my fave episode of the season, and probably in my top 5 of the series. Confaegion sees the return of the Morrigan (Emmanuelle Vaugier), she’s still determined to get Bo (Anna Silk) out-of-the-way once and for all, and has a plan which sees her recruiting Vex (Paul…
Lost Girl S03E02 – Subterrfaenean
Steve Cochrane pens the second episode of the season which sees Bo confronting two legends, one urban, and one storybook. But before I go any further, can I just ask if I can get the Fae phone network that Bo (Anna Silk) and Trick (Rick Howland) use? It works underground in forgotten tunnels! – Not that…
Sex After Kids – Cast & Crew Screening
I loved The Untitled Work of Paul Shepard, both Sue and I have made no secret of our love for that film. We both ranked it as one of our favorite films of 2011, but my friend Jeremy LaLonde, with his latest creation, Sex After Kids, has made a film that is leaps and bounds ahead…
Lost Girl S03E01 – Caged Fae
Lost Girl roared back on to our screens last night with a fun, and sexy, season premiere, called Caged Fae, or Lost Girl Meets Caged Heat. After waiting, seemingly interminable months, we finally get to rejoin our Fae friends, and it doesn’t seem like too much time has passed, Kenzi’s (Ksenia Solo) rash is still…
Current TV Shows I Most Enjoy – Part I
I was going to try and come up with a clever title or gimmick for this, like Sue’s Top 12 of 2012, or something. But I didn’t want to restrict myself with a number, and the fact is, one of the reasons we started the Mind Reels was because we felt that things we loved…
Happy 1st Birthday for The Mind Reels!
When I was younger, physically and chronologically, not mentally, I often thought about talking and working with people in the entertainment industry. I also thought about being a starship captain like James T. Kirk or walking with dinosaurs, but hey, one dream at a time. Growing up, I was not necessarily an outsider, but I…
Sex After Kids – Set Visit
“Let the chaos begin,” director Jeremy Lalonde says, repositioning his trademark hat as he returns to his station at the monitor. “Action.” And the scene comes to life before my eyes. It’s mid-afternoon on the set of Sex After Kids and he’s watching an establishing shot of a party in the park. On the…
