Cynthiab

I have been a TV fangirl since I was a young teen but now I'm a freelance entertainment reporter, which means I can chase down TV stars for a living instead of just for fun. A true TV junkie, I love the process as much as the finished product and I made my own primetime TV debut in a (tiny) role on Blue Collar TV.

When forced to narrow down my TV faves, most of them fall in the SciFi / Horror realm. From the early days of Lost in Space to Supernatural and Stargate Atlantis, I've got it bad for all things that go bump in the night and in space. (And in space, no one can hear you scream)

I am the author of three TV books including The Official Buffy the Vampire Slayer Pop Quiz Book. My other works include entertainment features for magazines such as Inside Kung Fu, Star Trek Magazine, Cult Times, Young Rider, and I was a staff writer for the Official Buffy the Vampire Slayer Magazine in both the US and UK.

Now I blog! I cover SF for SFUniverse.com, TV for Sheknows.com and I have my own site TVoftheAbsurd.com. I hope you'll visit and read my "Absurd" interviews with TV and Film stars.
