Warehouse 13 - Duped : Episode 108
Episode Detail:
Myka gets accidentally trapped in author Lewis Carroll's mirror --
unleashing the malevolent entity that was trapped inside.
From the trailer,I think it could be bodyswap.
By the way,new "Myka" looks so sexy!!

Ooooh see how malevolent she is with her tousled hair and little
black dress!
A sexualized woman! She must be possessed by the devil!
Do you suppose that there is so much bad plastic surgery in TV
Actor Land that Joanne Kelly's puffy and weirdly immobile lips look
normal to the producers of this show?
I liked the original much better than this remake. Chris Wiggins
was a remarkably overwrought actor and stagey actor, but he seemed
like he was committing to the role. Saul Rubinek seems like he is
phoning in his performances from a soundstage far, far, away from
the site of principle photography...oh wait. And Robey was a little
strange looking, but at least she could smile without looking like
she was going to pop her stitches.

I assume this means you're not a fan of the show? :-)

Dale - I've only watched the first two episodes, and those I
watched over the top of my laptop screen. It is, plainly, a rip-off
of FT13th:TS, and not nearly as interesting as the show it
plagiarizes. The writing is formulaic, tedious, and predictable.
The actors are generic (with the exception of C.C.H. Pounder, who
must have tax trouble or have lost a bet or something to have
gotten involved in this nonsense). The production values are very
poor, the photography and editing are barely competent, and the
effects came in a big white box labeled "SPECIAL FX".

I persoanlly like the show. But I agree that it is more than
somewhat like friday the 13th ( Which I also liked) Though 13 was
susposedly inspired by those great scenes in Indiana Jones movies -
especially the last scene in Raiders, It has SF eliments as well as
suprenatural ones. I find the male agent's character to be rather
obnoxious ( this from me!) but the woman is charming. I am a fan of
Saul R & the new teenage girl is both cute & clever so for a TV I
htink it is well above average. My favorite show so far was burnout
- that had real power.

I've seen bits and pieces of it myself, but no full eps. Always had
other stuff going on I guess. It's funny you mentioned Raiders,
Eric, as that was what the description of the show reminded me of.
I agree with Uri that it is also reminiscient of Friday The 13th.
My brother, who is not a sci-fi/fantasy fan, likes it and has
recommended it to me. So, I'll try to watch this ep and make my
judgment then.

The new "Myka" looks like she loves to use tesla gun to shoot men.
What a malevolent woman she is!

Well, I saw it. Here's my judgment:
It was an actual TF, not a body swap or possession, with a female
psychopath (Alice) trapped in the mirror for years escaping in the
female lead's (Micah?) form while she ends up trapped in the mirror
in her place. The male lead (Paul?) sees the imposter's reflection
in another mirror and it changes into Alice's true image for a
moment.
Liked: Joanne Kelly did a good job portraying both Micah and Alice.
She's not bad to look at either, so that helps. There are some nice
touches with music, like when they play 'White Rabbit' when Alice
is plotting to smash the mirror.
Didn't like: The plot is your standard 'evil twin/imposter'
scenario, and the writer(s) do nothing original with it. And the
other characters seem kind of flat to me, but this is the first
time I've seen it, so maybe if I watch other eps, it'll get better.
I'd give it 3 out of 5. An enjoyable way to pass an hour, but not
much else.

A bit off topic... just a reminder that Saul Rubinek was Dr. Munger
in Synapse.
Now back on topic...
hmmm... Nope, I pretty much agree with Dale on this episode. Though
I still have hope for this series. IMO - it's doing a decent job of
being entertaining... especially for the SyFy channel. I've even
been able to get a couple of non-SciFi friends interested in it.

Her name is spelled Myka. And the male lead is named Peter
Lattimer.

Thanks. It was the first time I saw the show so I wasn't sure.

To me, this series is like an 'X-files lite'.
I didn't care that much for it at first but it's beginning to grow
on me. It's pretty good.
I think I'll stay with it, not just because of it's TF/TG potential
but because it's a good show.

I too enjoyed seeing Myka dressed up in this ep, but the clunky
pumps ruined the look, they seemed like she must have borrowed them
from Mrs. Fred. In season 2, the fashion model / zoetrope ep we see
her in a much more flattering pair, so I wonder what they were
thinking.

I don't mean to be "that guy," but...
You woke up a 5-year old thread to tell us that?

The show definitely grows on you. I'm into the third season and
I've grown to appreciate the good qualities the show has to offer.
But what does bother me more than Myka's horrible acting is that
puffy horrible upper lip. Her mouth is suspiciously starting to
resemble a trouts : / I wish they could just replace her with
someone who can act and has a natural upper lip. Maybe something
"artifacty" is doing that to her lip.

I would agree with the lip :)
