Yay, Chromophobia will be screening at the Bath Film Festival in the UK on November 3rd! Click here for more info!
Click here and here for more from Variety and the Hollywood Reporter on NBC’c order of 3 additional scripts of Life. It’s not quite a “back nine” order to complete a full 22 episode season (the initial order was for 13 episodes), but it’s still very encouraging! Of course, it helps that there’s an impending writer’s strike and the networks want to secure a couple more finished scripts to prevent an interruption in production!
E!’s Kristin lists Life under “Likely a Keeper” in her Which New Series Are Most Likely to Survive article saying it’s “not quite a breakout, but it has all the makings of one. Though it was originally overlooked and underpromoted, we’re rooting for it to become fall’s sleeper hit!”
More Life notes: NBC.com has updated its gallery, video and recap sections, and conspiracy wall; Click here at Capslock community for a quick and easy download of Episode 3 screencaps; Check out this positive review of Life from the tv and pop culture blog South Dakota Dark.

The Baker
directed by Gareth Lewis and starring Damian Lewis will be released on
DVD (Region 2) on October 16th in Hungary! Xpress.hu and
NetPiac both appear to offer the DVD. One problem: Both of these sites are in Hungarian and none of us here read Hungarian! Is it being
offered for sale or just rent? It looks like
it’ll be available in English. Is there anyone out there who can read Hungarian and help us out? Contact us here.
Spoilers! NBC has posted a synopsis of Powerless (episode 6 of Life) which should air on October 31st. Spoilerfix.com also has a synopsis of A Civil War (episode 7).

Ann reported that a recent episode of The 411 show on the TV Guide Channel featured interviews with Damian Lewis and Sarah Shahi on the red carpet at the September 26th party for the US premiere of Life! Damian talked about his role as Detective Charlie Crews and then spoke about living in California saying:

“It’s changed my life entirely. I’m here with my young family – my wife and my baby girl. I can walk to the beach in five minutes in the middle of winter and surf, and I get on my bicycle, and I go to the farmers market. I’m a citizen of the world.”

Ryan has posted 280 screen shots from Tear Assunder (episode 2 of Life) on his Life Media site.

The song played during the pool scene in Tear Assunder is John 2:14 by Shivaree and the song at the end of the program was Hunted By a Freak by Mogwai.
