Primeval: Canada

NrobbieC · September 13 2012, 03:42 AM

So while Primeval (the last decent British TV show that was any good since Torchwood went American, the latter still good but not fully British) looks to be dead (again) there's a Canadian spin-off thankfully not a reboot coming soon.

I'm not sure what to expect from it, I'm really hoping it'll be good though it'll have a hard time trying to match the mothership, but as I said it's a spin-off, original characters will pop up, written by the Reeves-Stevens...it does have potential.

Primeval has so many loose threads so if it does stay dead, hopefully they can be tied into New World.

Are they still doing this? I don't remember hearing anything new about it in quite a while.

NrobbieC · September 13 2012, 04:22 AM

Yeah, it's out in November I think.

Yea, MAD (Amanda Tapping, Damian Kindler and I believe "M" is Martin Wood?) are Producing, now that Sanctuary is done, I think (Though I can't find Damian Kindler's name in the Cast/Crew on IMDB). I like Sara Canning, who was Jenna on Vampire Diaries, so that's a plus, though I am concerned they said they were going younger and sexier than the original UK show. The UK Series was pretty young, considering the premise and responsibilities, I hope they take reason with this "Younger/Sexier" version

I hadn't heard about that, but it makes me pretty happy. I loved Sanctuary.
EDIT: Just found the first bits of footage on Youtube. I'm glad to see Niall Matter from Eureka got a new gig, I always liked Zane.

NrobbieC · September 13 2012, 04:51 AM

Yeah I was a little worried it would become a sexcentric teen drama with dinosaurs, but they lead guy looks about 30 so I think it's safe.

Yea, me too. Oh, to have had a final 5th Season in the New Sanctuary

Too bad they couldn't have tied it into Eureka and actually made Zane the lead character. I would love to see the Eureka crew deal with the Anomaly's popping up in the town.

Oh, yea,
Niall Matter, he's cool too. Could be hopeful. Wonder if/when the States will get it?

First time I've seen the trailer. I see they got Connor in for an episode or two. I'll give it a watch.

Aye, kind of looks like a reboot though.

Will any of the stuff we found out up till now make it into the new show?

I was figuring with the ending of series 5 would be where this picks up with anomalies opening elsewhere in the world.

Was that the end?

I can't remember what happened after they shut down the power generator and ruined Bashir's plans.
