Today Entertainment Weekly posted an exclusive interview with Eric Johnson, star of the SciFi Channel’s new series, Flash Gordon. Some stills from the show are below:
From the interview:
Who do you think the show will appeal to the most?
I think it’s going to appeal to a lot of people. It’s been amazing, in my initial experiences talking about the show, how many men in their 40s into their 60s just light up when you mention Flash Gordon. And I don’t think there’s a 13-year-old boy in the world who isn’t going to think this is the coolest show ever. Frickin’ ray guns! How cool is that?
Read the entire interview here. Flash Gordon premieres on August 10th.

Lisa Fary's earliest influences are Princess Leia, Rainbow Bright, Astronaut Barbie, and her 6th grade teacher, Ms. Palmer. She's angry that it's 2011 and she still doesn't have a hovercraft, but will accept a jetpack as consolation. That jetpack had better be pink with a rhinestone monogram. 
Looking forward to it
i don’t know why but every time I hear about Flash Gordon the first thing tha pops into my head is the theme song from “Flash Beagle”….
