Actually I have. :rommie: It's clear you enjoy talking out your ass.

News on S.H.I.E.L.D. The title might get changed, probably for annoying legal reasons, not because there's anything wrong with it: Legal perspective maybe. Nobody in the real world is likely to get the two shows confused. Press release description:

Yeah maybe the shitty acting is just shitty directing. But if the next series is CGI animated, it's not going to fall in the uncanny valley because that just doesn't work at all. The effect is too creepy and remember, five year old kids need to want to watch it. They'll avoid it by either...

I suppose everyone could spoiler code all comments with the episode number. Would make for a strange thread. Why would Netflix launch anywhere and not include the ability to compile a queue? That's just basic. Their UI design philosophy is a mystery to me.

Thanks for the reminder. April 19! House of Cards wasn't binge fodder for me, but I think this one might be. So what's the plan, people need to avoid this thread until they've seen the whole show? Is it 6 episodes total? Netflix really needs some way to save an upcoming original series to your...

The thing about Infinity is, it's a blank slate. VOY's example did flicker across my mind, but I chose to ignore it. ;) The lack of any set formula suggests creative freedom and even the possibility interests me. The other ones, I sort of know where they're going. Orion = Indiana Jones/Lara...

My theory: a transporter accident has replaced the SyFy honchos with their Mirror Universe counterparts, where the SyFy channel isn't frightened of anything approximating science fiction.

Sure. They tend to feature nonhuman characters - toys, cars, animals, fish - so they can avoid the uncanny valley. Even when a human character shows up, for instance in Toy Story, the animation style is deliberately more cartoony than CGI is capable of. Another good example is The Clone Wars...

SyFy just went space opera happy today, announcing the development of 5 series set in space out of a total of 7. Plus the Blake's 7 remake/reboot/rewhatever, which already has a series order. Plus Ringworld as a miniseries. There could be two or even three space operas on SyFy in the not too...

Infinity is the one that piques my interest the most, because it's the most open-ended, harkening back to TOS or maybe VOY but I like to stay positive here. :D With this tsunami of shows, how does the Blake's 7 remake fit? Is it greenlit in a more definite way than the rest of these, further...

Ringworld and Childhood's End miniseries in the works at SyFy!

And changing focus radically, a bit of genre from IFC: Just a script at this point....

Thanks! Good to see any space opera sighting...lots more than I was hoping for... Seems like some overlap between the premises of SyFy's Blake's 7 remake and Clandestine, but I don't mind there being so much space opera that they start stepping on each others' toes.

What's funny about all this is that HBO's whole strategy is that they're not trying appeal to the majority of viewers (not that any network or channel does anymore). They justify their premium price by deliberately creating shows that will appeal only to the select few willing to pay for...

:rommie: But this nonsense is great for keeping my thread bumped while waiting for more actual news on the thread topic.

Bingo. Of all the shows that could be argued to be a financial or creative hit, GoT is not one of them.

Oh PS, I don't consider this a spoiler that Saul survives the series, because there's every chance this loopy idea is misdirection and they do plan to kill him off... ;)

A bit late for April Fools, so I'm assuming this is legit. A dark comedy about an outlandish scumbag lawyer? Could work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqnHtGgVAUE

Yeah I'm thinking, what shifty guys/gals are at liberty for a new series, and have name recognition with SyFy viewers? Not just from SyFy series, but any series the average SyFy viewer is likely to have seen, especially anything genre. Titus Welliver is an example. David Straitharn's series...
