Good Science Fiction is Hard to Pull Off.....

No Wonder the Sci-Fi channel changed 
it's name to SYFY.

You don't want to be connected to this kind of "stuff".

==================================

Turns "Slasher" for Finale


(( A beautifully detailed critique by Daniel Fienberg is Linked Here))

With This Kind of Competition, maybe Netflix
Has a Good Shot.

Netflix Will Produce Network-Quality Shows 
of Its Own




==================================


Netflix Will Produce Network-Quality Shows of Its Own There were rumblings yesterday that Hulu wants to produce original content. Netflix just beat them to the punch, acquiring the rights to a new show starring Kevin Spacey, with the pilot being directed by David Fincher.

The show is a drama called House of Cards, which is an adaptation of the book and miniseries from the UK.  AV Club says that Spacey will not only star as a "ruthless politician," but serve as the show's executive producer. Netflix also paid $100 million dollars and committed to 26 episodes, outbidding HBO and AMC on their way to getting their hands on the rights. Networks and cable operators: suck it.
