Happy New Year.. Lets hope it is a better year for SciFi in general. I thought the new Dr Who Christmas special was great.

V could have been so much better.

Primeval was brought back from the dead and season 4 started yesterday on ITV. Bittorent is your friend.

Don't count on it. Stargate Universe and Caprica are already gone and I don't see much good coming out in the near future.

I fact I bet V is canceled pretty quick.

Beware of any good show on Fox or SyFy. It will get canceled by default.

I watched "No Ordinary Family" and thought it was pretty good. It's a real life "Incredibles". Kind of fun.

"V" is driving my nuts like "Lost" did. Five minutes of show and cut to a commercial.

Hi, all:


The Doctor Who Christmas Carol was much better than I had expected. Keeping the Dickens' flavor alive while adding some very clever twists around Michael Gambon. Who I've admired since his days as Maigret and The Singing Detective.

Hoping the new and hopefully not too 're-tooled' 'V' fares better in its new season than last.


Jack.

What station was the Christmas special on?

I recently watched every season over agin on Netflix but it's never on Sci Fi (Sy Fy, Bah!) anymore.

Me too. The show has a great sense of humor, and the flying shark pulling “Santa Claus” was great.

The new season of Primeval just started in Britain.

It should show up on BBC America sometime in the near future.

By my reading of the SyFy channel website, Wiki and my DVR listing SyFy is marathoning the end of Caprica Tuesday night. Starting at 4 (Tucson, Cox HD feed, your time will vary) with Blowback (the first ep after the cancel decision) and cruising through to 9 (same provisos) when Apotheosis ends.

Also because these eps showed on Space they aren’t (again Cox, Tucson) flagging as New so double check your DVR program.

New Primeval coming on the air. Two people from the past? Guess the other guy is stuck there. (Actually, I thought they were all stuck because I thought it'd been canceled.)

Finally started watching Being Human, but I'm only one the second episode. Getting ready for the US version.

Caprica on Tuesday At 6pm — I take it they are showing the remainder of the unseen shows?

Lets hope its a good year for SciFi, but given the paucity of the titles its not a good start, especially as Merlin is a borderline entry - its really fantasy after all.
