Cable Forum - General TV Show Snippets & General Information

Gutted, I was really looking forward to the new B5 mini movie if they still make it, looks like at least 50% of the comic relief and my third fav charactor will be missing now :(

Re: Science Fiction & Fantasy Snippets

There are strong rumours that K9 and Sarah Jane Smith will star in a new Dr Who spin off series after their revival in the New Series 2.
Also in Dr Who, Peter Kay will play the part of "Victor Kennedy" in (S2) Episode 10.
Meanwhile the Tardis is apparently set to land in Albert Square during one episode.
In the other DW spinoff (Torchwood), Gwen Cooper has been picked for the lead female role.
On the Star Trek front - the planned ST 11 film has now apparently been scrapped.
Charmed has not been renwed for a ninth series, and the possible spin off series staring "Billy" also now seems to be a non starter.
ITV is planning a pilot episode of (another) remake of the Avengers.
A film version of 24 is due to start filming after S5 is wrapped up.
Season 3 of Battlestar Galatica is going to be largely based on "New Caprica" and the occupation resistance. There will also be an ongoing Cylon story, with visits to the Cylon homeworld for the first time.
The spin off Star Wars series is still set to go ahead, with the first episodes in 2008.

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other Snippets

The planned ST 11 film may now happen after all - set as a prequel to the original series.
Keifer Sutherland has signed up for three more series of 24 (series 6, 7 & 8).
Agent Woolsey from Stargate is set to appear in 10 episodes of the sister series Atlantis (series 3).
Channel 4 has nipped in and secured the terrestrial rights to the last series of Charmed, ahead of Channel 5.

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other Snippets

Invasion has not been picked up for a second season, neither (as mentioned elsewhere) has Surface or Threshold.

Supernatural has been picked up for a another season, so has Bones, Lost, 24, the Unit and the Simpsons.

As mentioned before, Stargate SG1, Atlantis and Battlestar Galatica all return as well.

JJ Abrams of LOST fame has also been attached to write and direct. The rumour about it being a prequel pretty much dismissed though, because of Enterprise. Also based on what I've seen ratings DID improve quite dramatically for season 4, so why wasn't it renewed? The last episode with Riker etc was crap but other than that it was a solid season that would hold it's own against any other Trek...

Welcome to the club of the dispossessed,the club of the unfortunates, unlucky to get engaged with characters and plots of unfinished, abandoned storylines and doomed to always wonder how it all ends.:(

Well that will be pants.

I take it the budget has been slashed

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other Snippets

No idea, but the the man in charge was quoted as saying they will get "rescued" during the season - and even before then, the Galatica and Pegasus are still around, so there will be storylines on them.

At last! I've missed Atlantis. Glad it's back on. Finally got something to watch again while waiting for new seasons of Lost, Prison Break, 24 & Sleeper Cell.
