It's that time of the year again for the upcoming Dragon Con 2008 weekend (Aug. 29 - Sept. 1)

The schedule is finally up.

Go to the Daily Dragon to download the printable pocket program (I will probably just print out page 48-60 and start marking down all the conflicts that will inevitably occur).

There are also daily changes that happen after the schedule was sent to the printers, so check out the "programming changes" link as well.

Here's the main Dragon*Con webpage that has the guests list on the front page.

Any other HTFers coming down to Hotlanta for Dragon Con this coming weekend?

The Firefly/Serenity contingent features Nathan Fillion, Alan Tudyk, Morena Baccarin, and Jewel Staite. Nathan and Alan were late additions which have perked up Browncoat interest to a much higher level. Shindig starts up on Saturday 10:00 p.m. at the Sheraton.

Other shows:
Buffy/Angel - James Marsters
Babylon 5 - No one
Battlestar Galactica - Edward James Olmos, Richard Hatch, Aaron Douglas, Tahmoh Penikett, James Callis
Batman - Adam West
Heroes - James Kyson Lee, Hayden Panetierre
Smallville - Michael Rosembaum
Star Trek - Avery Brooks, Michael Dorn, Walter Koenig, George Takei, Robert Picardo, Tim Russ, James Cawley
Buck Rogers - Erin Gray
Andromeda - Kevin Sorbo, Laura Bertram
Farscape - Virginia Hey, David Franklin, Gigi Edgley
Star Wars - Jake Lloyd, Daniel Logan, David Prowse, Peter Mayhew, Ray Park, Jeremy Bulloch
Harry Potter - Matthew Lewis
TAPS - Grant Wilson, Jason Hawes
Alien/Millenium - Lance Hendriksen
Stargate - Torri Higginson, Rainbow Sun Francks

Eye Candy and notables - Ami Dolenz and Mickey Dolenz, Sean Astin, Gail Kim, Beau Bridges, James Hong, Linda Blair, Lou Ferrigno, Brad Dourif, James Randi, Robert Englund, Traci Brooks

Overall, a large contingent of Star Trek/Star Wars guests, not too much eye candy, but anyhow, it's a 24/7 convention, and a lot of fun if you are into any of the 30+ programming tracks.

Notable cancellations:

Adam Baldwin (must be nice to be working on "Chuck")
Erica Durance (Smallville) and her hubby David Palffy (Stargate SG-1)
Katie Sackhoff (Battlestar Galactica)
Jamie Bamber (Battlestar Galactica)
Steve Gonsalves (Ghosthunters)
Leah Cairns (Battlestar Galactica and Kyle XY)
Devon Murray (Harry Potter films)

NBC/Universal, in their infinite wisdom, has cancelled all the Heroes-related panels for the Heroes-related guests at D*C next week, so they are pretty much stuck at their tables in the Walk of Fame area for the weekend. The supposition is that NBC/Universal doesn't want the Heroes cast members to give away inadvertent spoilers before season 3 episodes are aired.
