Defying Gravity finally got good in episode 9 – which ABC didn’t air yet – and probably wont. Be careful trying to find it online though. When I went back to the site my antivirus program caught some exploits.

32. SarahJM… “Syfy always splits up the seasons like that, and not just for Eureka either. ”

No, they only do that sometimes. Eureka’s Season 1 had 12 episodes (July-September 2006) and Season 2 had 13 episodes (July-September 2007). Season 3 had 18 episodes, with 8 in July-September 2008 and 10 in July-September 2009.

27. Hat Rick… “What gets me is that some people in H’wood are screaming, “‘FlashForward’ isn’t an SF show! NOT AN SF SHOW!”

These are the same people that said they changed the characters from being physicists to being cops (or some such dime-a-dozen TV character) because “we’re not schmucks.” ABC needs to tell these guys to just keep their mouths shut.

Defying gravity is best! Its actually intelligent, not just sex and violence.

‘Defying Gravity’ is without doubt the WORST thing that has ever been associated with the term science fiction.
Good riddance!

I think you missed the point. It wasn’t teen angst. It was teens (like those who are recruited by nefarious religious factions) who are convinced of their “faith” that do an awful thing. It is only because Zoe has created the avatar version of herself that the story moves where it does. It’s about the heartbreaking loss of two daughters who were lead down a dangerous road and how one father refuses to let his daughter die, thus creating a new race.

Watch it again. Teen angst is Twilight, not Caprica.

Syfy always splits up the seasons like that, and not just for Eureka either.

I’ve always appreciated that just when rerun season hits, Syfy has new shows on. Likewise when the regular networks have just finished their season finales, Syfy begins their summer season of new programming.

Until you added the parentheses, I was beginning to think you were channeling archy. (Now *there’s* a reference way too old for most everyone on this site…)

Does everything happen for a reason?
What’s happening to the survivors of Oceanic Flight 815? Who are the Others? What is the Island and where is everybody? Think you’ve got it figured out? Share your theories here, rate those of other fans and see how yours measure up.

“Caprica” is not cancelled? You’ve got to be kidding. After finally watching the series pilot last week and learning that the groundwork for the Cylon War was due to teenage angst, I lost all interest and hope that the series would be anywhere near as good as BSG…

Give the resources and timeslot to a serious (or at least entertaining) series…

But what can you can expect from Siffy (SyFy)?

I need to take some serious notes about when all of these shows are starting so that I know when to program my dvr!
