Absolute Justice aired in the US last night. It was a 2hr Smallville TV movie to do with the JSA. Pretty good episode I say. It had a few twists too.

Pretty sure he'd be in his mid twenties considering the actors ages were around 14 at the start of season 1.

They are going to keep renewing until it becomes Supergeriatric.

The flying slows down, he can't always remember where the emergency is, and no-one wants to be stood below him.

The Americans are still waiting for episodes 5 & 6 (30th March I think they restart) as it suddenly stopped after episode 4, but then again they did have major production problems

Yes, I'd say it's worth a look if you have access to the remaining broadcast episodes. They started to introduce a couple of interesting variations on the original story. ;)

Sadly, it would appear that the excellent series, Legend of the Seeker has been cancelled. Series two will reach its finale in a couple of weeks.

I actually thought season 1 of Caprica had finished, not just the first half...

A few months ago, the Syfy network commissioned an online series called 'Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome,' a chronicle of the war experiences of young William Adama.

The network liked Michael Taylor's script for the project so much that Syfy will air 'Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome' on the network as the pilot for a possible young Adama TV series.

Mark Stern, Syfy's executive vice president of original programming and the co-head of original content for Universal Cable Productions, said the network hoped to begin production on the pilot in Vancouver in early 2011.

"When we read Michael's script, it was so clearly a full-blown pilot for a series," Stern said in a Thursday interview. "The scope is fantastic and bigger, I think, than anticipated, so we said, 'Let's do it as a 2-hour backdoor pilot.' ... We're trying to get up and running as soon as possible."

'Blood & Chrome' won't air until the fourth quarter of 2011 at the earliest, Stern said, but an early 2012 debut sounds more likely, especially if the network decides to go forward with a full series. Given the project's origins as an online project, expect lots of Web extras as well.

Fans missing the Battlestar Galactica itself -- the valiant old ship that housed Adama, Starbuck, Apollo and the rest -- will get to see it once again, or a version of it, in the new show. High-resolution digital scans were made of all the 'Battlestar Galactica' sets before they were torn down, and those scans will be used in the new project, which, like Syfy's 'Sanctuary,' will employ cutting-edge computer effects to supply virtual sets.

"It's an opportunity to 'see them before they were famous,'" Stern said of 'Blood & Chrome,' which takes place roughly 20 years after the events of 'Caprica' and about 40 years before the events of 'BSG.' "Here's the Battlestar Galactica as a brand-new, shiny ship -- well, not shiny, but as a new ship that had just been commissioned. What was that like?"

(snip)

Ronald D. Moore, 'BSG's' executive producer, was "in the room" when the 'Blood & Chrome' story was conceived; Stern called him the "godfather" of the project. However at this time, Moore, who has a deal with Sony and is developing projects like 'The Wild, Wild West' there, has no official role on 'Blood & Chrome.'

Given that a full-blown series, if one is ordered, might not go into production for a year, Stern said the hope is that Moore might be able to come on board if 'Blood & Chrome' goes forward beyond the pilot. David Eick and Taylor are executive producers and Bradley Thompson and David Weddle are producers on 'Blood & Chrome'; all are veterans of 'BSG.'

(snip)

Asked if 'BSG' composer Bear McCreary would do the music for 'Blood & Chrome,' Stern said no deal had been struck be he "couldn't imagine" the project without a McCreary score.

I'd say with one family member being a scientist, there's a similarity to the Fantastic 4.

Interestingly, the character of 'Jim' seems to have the exact same powers as Michael Chiklis' Ben/Thing character in the recent Fantastic 4 films, minus the CGI disfigurement. :D

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but the BBC have ordered 14 episodes of Doctor Who for [New] Series 7 - to be split between 2012, and the shows 50th anniversary in 2013. Plus there is the usual Christmas Special (2011).
