JASON O'MARA IS
GEORGE WASHINGTON IN 'SONS OF LIBERTY' HISTORICAL SERIES
TV news for you today, people, starting with hunky TERRA NOVA star Jason O'Mara who has just joined the cast of historical mini series SONS OF LIBERTY in which he will play George Washington! I've told you recently that History's six part series will chronicle the American Revolution from the Boston Tea Party to the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Set to play the army general who later on becomes the president of USA, O'Mara joins Dean Norris as Benjamin Franklin, Ben Barnes as Sam Adams, Henry Thomas as John Adams, Marton Csokas as general Gage, and Rafe Spall as John Hancock!
'Z NATION' ZOMBIE SHOW
CAST HAS BEEN REVEALED!
The worldwide success of THE WALKING DEAD zombie show has influenced the trend of other apocalyptic series of that kind, and I have informed you before that SyFy is preparing their own zombie show Z NATION and now the cast for the new drama has been announced! To start airing later this Autumn the 13 episode series depicts the epic struggle to save humanity after a zombie apocalypse. Three years have passed since the zombie virus has gutted the country, and a team of everyday heroes must transport the only known survivor of the plague from New York to California, where the last functioning viral lab waits for his blood. Although the antibodies he carries are the world’s last, best hope for a vaccine, he hides a dark secret that threatens them all. With humankind’s survival at stake, the ragtag band embarks on a journey of survival across three thousand miles of rusted-out post apocalyptic America. Harold Perrineau (OZ, LOST) will play Hammond, the leader of the group headed west! Tom Everett Scott is Garnett, his second in command, while DJ Qualls plays the role of Citizen Z, a computer hacker who joins the team and helps them navigate the zombie infested terrain. TWILIGHT's Michael Welch and Kellita Smith are two disparate wanderers drawn to the team – and to each other – by a shared goal: survival. The ensemble also includes Anastasia Baranova (The Darkness II), Russell Hodgkinson (Big Fish) and Keith Allan (Rise Of The Zombies)!

I hope SONS OF LIBERTY will be both entertaining and educational. Sounds like a good cast.
