New Sci Fi shows on TV
« on: June 10, 2011, 03:49:15 PM »
I love Sci Fi, and am sure I saw some trailers for some new Sci Fi television shows this year.
I just cant remember or find them.

Can I get some names of new shows, and what channel they are on?  (added descriptions/opinions/reviews welcome)

Thanks in advance!
Oh shit, you're right!

I haven't seen anything promising. It's sad, since SGU was cancelled, I can't think of any top quality Sci-fi shows anymore, they all seem to be focused on vampires or reality based programming.

I haven't checked it out because it's on the fall schedule but it's on my radar.

Thanks!

Any opinion on Terra Nova?

Based on the bio it looks...........eh. Kind of a mix of a B grade syfy movie and Lost.

Most sci-fi shows these days seem like they're attempting to be Lost 2: The Lostening.

Except less coherent and cohesive.  Somehow.

But half-assed sci-fi is better than the Housewives of Atlanta or Dancing with the Stars.

You know, there's plenty of great TV. 

And most of it isn't sci-fi.

I watch lots of great TV that isnt sci-fi.  Sci-fi is just my favorite genre.

I keep seeing commercial for it and it looks pretty bitchin'. I'm excited for the premier. I imagine it being pretty fun and exciting.

Oh.  It just seemed that it was sci-fi or bust judging from your previous comment.

Are you looking for stuff airing this summer?
