Really? Could the writers try to be a little more creative!

I'd probably go for it. It's got to be better than Terra Nova right?

Well, on the one hand, the writer worked previously on DS9. That's a good sign. On the other hand, he also worked on Andromeda, and it's on the SyFy Channel (I hate that name so much it hurts me to type it). Also, "Unity Democracy"? "Starship Defender"? Unless this is the finally televised version of Galaxy Quest and it's a comedy, it's going to have to be brilliant right out of the gate.

I just hope it's not another dark sci-fi drama. Episodic Sci-Fi needs a new Next Generation, or at least a new SG-1, not a new Galactica or SG-U.

I have to agree. Terra Nova actually has been quite steady in the ratings 6.5 million viewers, so it will probably get a second season from Spielberg's connections in Hollywood. Sci-Fi shows unless they have the name star trek or star gate attached to them don't last too long anymore. And star gate universe was cancelled rather quickly. I hope its done right! I'll be following this story closely to report on anymore news. I hope its like star trek, the same feeling.

Also Paramount is hesitant to try any new Star Trek stuff after Enterprise and while JJ Abrams is trying to make his mark in the ST universe.
However, I really liked Enterprise. They could have had another two seasons, I believe. It was doing just fine in the ratings...But I guess the fanbase wasn't there. It might be my second favorite series after Voyager. Yea, I like to be different.

indeed y sentiments as well, I do wonder how the naming convention works.

And just to add, Andromeda worst Sc-fi show on tv since lexx and that puppet thing (ended with peacekeepers war), can't believe ppl watched that shit.

I'd probably go for it. It's got to be better than Terra Nova right?





That show is such disappointment, its like watching a kids show, so ridiculous, even dynotopia had more realism and action.

They that can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

People watch the Jersey Shore so it doesn't surprise me what shows become popular anymore.
