As for things you can actually watch right now, Renee O'Connor (from Xena, duh) is currently starring in a new, wonderfully creepy sci-fi webseries called Ark .

The show features some of the creepiest, most intriguing action this side of the original Alien and The Matrix. Here's what O'Connor herself had to say about it:

It's about this woman who wakes up, and she finds herself on this "ark," and she's in space and she has to figure out how to get home. And there's a really strange ending where you're not really sure if it's a set-up, or if it's part of a higher conspiracy... It has an Alien-esque feel to it. It's very dark and moody.

I09 talks to Renee at the recent Entertainment Weekly / Syfy Party at Comic Con about the web series “Ark”

It’s about this woman who wakes up, and she finds herself on this “ark,” and she’s in space and she has to figure out how to get home. And there’s a really strange ending where you’re not really sure if it’s a set-up, or if it’s part of a higher conspiracy… It has an Alien-esque feel to it. It’s very dark and moody.

A child’s voice call out “Mom, wake up.” Connie obliges, slowly regaining consciousness after a deep sleep. But she doesn’t wake up in her bed. She is not in a bed of any kind. Consumed with panic, Connie screams and pounds against the glass of the coffin-like pod in which she is mysteriously confined. But the relief that comes with escape is only replaced by fear and confusion unlike any Connie has ever experienced. Because Connie is not in her bed. Connie is not on this planet.
