Well you are lucky then! This is a re-run of the second series on Sky 1.

Indeed, I've also been watching the new Blade series, a new Sci-Fi called Eureka and Season 3 of the 4400.

Atlantis season 3 episode 2 is now available

I think Eureka starts on Sky in August.

What's the Blade series like?

Yes, for some reason they have given it a longer title though.

Quote:

A Town Called Eureka
On: Sky One
Date: Wednesday 2nd August 2006
Time: 21:00 to 22:30

Pilot: When a US Marshal arrives in a secluded town he gets a bit more than he bargained for. Eureka secretly houses the world's geniuses, and anything is possible... Sci-fi comedy.

(Only the pilot is 1 hour 30 minutes)

Enjoying Blade so far, it's quite similar to the later films.

Also watched the early pilot for another series called Heroes - about a group of people all across the world who suddenly develop extraordinary powers. This wasn't too bad and has potential, it was a bit slow in parts though.

I wouldn't mind getting back into SG1. Loved it when I used to watch it. Not seen it since season 5 though.

Sounds interesting. Something else to watch at least

Does the Blade series ignore the end of the last movie then, seeing as there should be no more vampires after the events of Trinity?

Wouldn't mind watching it. Although I doubt anyone could do a better Blade than Snipes.

Heroes - heard a bit about that. Some people are calling it "the new Lost" apparently.

I watched the Pilot of Eureka, and must say I really enjoyed it. Definately one to watch

I don't know if blade follows the movies at all. Maybe it follows the comic more?

SG-1 and Atlantis have been the best series yet

I didn't realise all vampires were wiped out, if so, then it's safe to say it ignores that. The actor is a very good Blade, tho possible not as good as Snipes.

Yes, I enjoyed Eureka, funny in places but serious as well. Have to agree on SG-1 and Atlantis as well (so far ....).

Well, the events of Trinity suggest there shouldn't be any vampires left afterwards, although perhaps it took some time.

I had a look at the wikipedia entry for the Blade series, it says it's "nominally" a continuation of the movies. I guess it's a similar thing to the Highlander movies & TV series.

The Blade series has been created by the guy (David Goyer) who wrote all three Blade movies (& directed no.3), so should be a good portrayal of Blade.

Anyway. I love the Blade movies, so I think I'll have a look for the series

Blade 1 good

Virus's can be cured/ immunised against.

thanks for that

I see NBC are making another series of the classic 80's series V, apparently several of the original cast have signed up for it and it should be finished next year. I just hope it lives up to the original as I loved this show.

**Paul** · 06-08-2006, 19:49

Really, where did you see that ?

But take a look at the date

If it materialises then it could be good - but I wouldn't get you're hopes up. If I recall correctly it was due around the same time as the new blakes 7 series (which totally failed to take off)

edit - and from imdb
