Machinima has posted episodes 3 and 4 of Blood and Chrome. You can watch them below or on the Machinima Prime YouTube Channel. Episode 1 has had 1,773,800 views so far and episode 2, only 517,234. Some high-traffic sites didn't embed both episodes last week, so if you haven't seen ep 2, you should probably catch up first.

And a slight correction: Machinima has released the full schedule for the show, and the final two episodes will be posted on December 7, not November 30, which makes more sense since they are being released in pairs.

David Eick will be answering questions about the show on YouTube any minute now, so if you have an account, you can head over there.

Nerdist has a new interview with Eick. Here is a snippet that probably isn't a surprise to the conspiracists among us (the part about those plans for a B&C TV show not being what they were cracked...

We are loving the webisodes of Battlestar Galactica: Blood and Chrome. It’s fun, if mildly frustrating, to watch them in serialized form like they did back in the ol’ days in the movie theaters, but we admit we’re also looking forward to getting that Blu-ray in February!

Please note that the final episode will be going live on December 7, not November 30 as we were told originally. Also note that, if you’re seeing this in time, showrunner David Eick will reportedly be live commenting on the Machinima Prime video at 1pm Pacific time today.

Otherwise, feel free to watch episodes 3 and 4 right here and now, below the press release (and please note that the episodes 3 and 4 are presented as one continuous episode).

Dallas Roberts ("The Good Wife," "Rubicon") is joining "The Walking Dead" as Milton, who, unlike most of the characters inspired by Robert Kirkman's comics, is wholly original to the TV series. "Milton is the details guy," Kirkman tells EW, "[who] works with the Governor...He's not exactly a scientist, but he's a smart guy that is trying to find out how zombies behave. Watching him do his little experiments is going to be a lot of fun." [EW]

Geoff Johns’ highly anticipated episode of Smallville featuring two iconic DC legends has finally cast its superheroes. Jaren Brandt Bartlett and Eric Martsolf will play Blue Beetle and Booster Gold, respectively.

Martsolf is best known as the recovering drug addict millionaire Brady Black on CBS’s long-running daytime soap opera Days of our Lives, while Bartlett – a relative newcomer – may be best known as the lunch money-stealing bully Alejandro on Nickelodeon’s monster hunting series The Troop.

The episode, entitled “Booster”, is set to air in April and will show the origins of Jaime Reyes, the third incarnation of Blue Beetle. Also appearing in the episode will be the second Blue Beetle, Ted Kord, played by Sebastian Spence (Battlestar Galactica). Kord Industries will also play a part in the episode.

We won’t presume if and when we might see Tom Welling’s Clark Kent don his birthright duds and become the big “S” on the final season of "Smallville,” but that doesn’t mean we can’t guess that actually seeing Superman might be, if anything, a grand finale to CW’s record-breaking series.

To plump up the ice cream sundae under this (hopefully) inevitable cherry, two more DC heroes are soon to land in Superman’s hometown. According to EW blog Inside TV, Booster Gold and Blue Beetle have been cast in “Smallville.”

"Days of Our Lives" actor Eric Martsolf (pictured) has sealed the part of Booster Gold, while newcomer Jaren Brandt Bartlett has been cast as Jaime Reyes, the Blue Beetle. Both will star in the season’s Geoff Johns-directed 17th episode, entitled “Booster.”

Exciting news, Smallville fans! The CW show has just cast the roles of two more superheroes from the DC universe: Blue Beetle and Booster Gold. Taking the character of Blue Beetle to the small screen are Sebastian Spence (Camelot, BSG, First Wave) and Jaren Brandt Bartlett (The Troop).

Spence (pictured above, middle) will play Ted Kord, an inventor-turned-superhero who inherited the mantle of original Blue Beetle. Bartlett (pictured above, left) will play Jaime Reyes, the third Blue Beetle who was chosen by the scarab artifact.

Both will appear in Smallville’s seventeenth episode of this final season entitled “Booster”, written by Geoff Johns. According to executive producer Brian Peterson, this episode will team Blue Beetle up with Booster Gold:

“We meet Ted Kord as a captain of industry who has lost a valuable weapon…the scarab. He’ll cross paths with Booster Gold, Jaime Reyes, and, of course, Clark.”

Who...

More DC heroes are destined to meet the Last Son of Krypton on the CW’s superhero drama Smallville. It has been announced that Jaren Brandt Bartlett has been cast as Jaime Reyes/Blue Beetle in the 17th episode of Smallville, titled "Booster". Further leaks reveal Eric Martsolf (Days of Our Lives) is set to play Booster Gold, and Sebastian Spence has been cast to play inventor-turned-superhero Ted Kord. The script for the episode has been written by Geoff Johns, a frequent Smallville writer with a number of episodes already under his belt. Furthermore, Johns has written for Justice League Unlimited, as well as previous experience with both Marvel and DC Comics.

For those of you that don’t follow comics, Booster Gold is Michael Jon Carter, a young man from 25th century Gotham City who steals various superhero artifacts from a museum and travels back to the present to be a famous crimefighter.

Two guest actors have signed up to appear in a future episode of Smallville. TV Guide reports that Sebastian Spence and Jaren Brandt Bartlett will play two different incarnations of superhero The Blue Beetle in 'Booster'. Battlestar Galactica actor Spence will play Ted Kord, while The Troop star Bartlett will portray his protege Jaime Reyes. Executive producer Brian Peterson explained: (more)...
