Beyond Buffy: State of sci-fi on TV
Buffy is long gone, and the Angel TV series just had a stake driven through it. Farscape was cancelled long ago, and the Star Trek franchise has for years been zooming at Warp Nine to the Suckitude Galaxy.
Is there anything out there on TV for a science-fiction fan to look forward to? You wont find much of it on the big broadcast networks, unfortunately only one new show focused on science fiction or fantastical themes is debuting on the older, larger broadcast networks, namely NBCs Revelations, and it looks pretty terrible.
But that doesnt mean theres nothing on the radar that looks promisingfar from it. Heres a quick roundup of the shows that have us most intrigued, some nearly ready for broadcast, some just wisps of rumor.
