And that has everything to do with Sky Atlantic because?????

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other TV Snippets
 

in a couple of years maybe they will finally catch on and make all series available on tv at the same time globally. They did it with cinema releases and especially dvd releases where there was anything up to 6-9 months between US and UK releases and now they need to do it with tv series. There is an obvious reason why people are downloading them (they want to watch it NOW) so if the networks are worried about losing money then they need to make the shows available to their global fan base at the same time.

I'm still wondering why Sky Atlantic is to blame. I watched it on an HBO live stream as I have access. I could've recorded that and upped it as a torrent had I wished to.

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other TV Snippets
 

Good grief, where did anyone say Sky Atlantic is to blame, give it a rest and get back to the topic.

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other TV Snippets
 

I don't see why, Sky took the lead years ago and said stuff like Lost and 24 were going to be on the day after the US (instead of a week after) and as we all know it has got to the point with GoT where they show it in real time. It would be nice if they made all prime time series (Walking Dead, Big Bang, Greys Anatomy etc etc) available in real time during the night on Sky One, Sky Two or Sky Atlantic. I haven't had a look but there can't be anything else much better on other than repeats? You have only got to have a look at my tv schedule thread to see how many superb series are out there atm.

100% correct General

Netflix;

The Punisher finished filming earlier in the year and is set for release later in 2017.

Lost in Space has also finished filming and is set for release in May 2018. In a Dr Who / Battlestar type twist, Dr Smith is a female in this remake.

HBO has ordered a pilot for a Watchmen series.

Media Res and Bron Studios have picked up the rights to Scanners, looking to make a TV series.


This years DC Crossover will begin during the November 27th Supergirl episode and continue later that night with Arrow.
It will contine (and finish) on November 28th, with The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow.

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other TV Snippets
 

Hopefully the pilot for Watchman will be pretty good.

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other TV Snippets
 

Roswell is coming back:

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other TV Snippets
 

It's being reported online that the never happening The Walking Dead/Fear The Walking Dead crossover episode is happening soon.

Since they are shown at opposite times of year it would seem unlikely to be in consecutive weeks or episodes.

Shark jumping time soon for either/both series?

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other TV Snippets
 

it is next year

Interesting..

Re: Science Fiction, Fantasy, and other TV Snippets
 

yeah. The good news is that Amazon are involved and because they are keen to increase their share/participation in the tv/streaming market they'll make sure it is done properly. If they play their cards right this can worth an absolute fortune to them.
