Upcoming on Sci Fi Channel


Eureka has been picked up for a third season, and will begin production soon with a premiere of either late this year or early 2009.

And there's a lot of pilots:

“True Believer is a two-hour backdoor pilot based on an original concept from Dawson, David Atchinson, Matthew Spradlin, and Tom Feister. The contemporary dramedy centers on a 20-something comic-book nerd who hires a washed-up real-life superhero to be his crime-fighting sidekick and to teach him the ropes.”

”The Stranded is a two-hour pilot based on the SCI FI/Virgin Comics title by Mike Carey, which was released in January. In it, five seemingly everyday people must face a terrifying question: What if your entire life--your childhood, your family, your memories--was a lie? For the stranded--Sisera, Endo, Drum, Tamree and Cullen--that's true. Each of them is from another world called Standfire, and the past is returning to try to kill them.”

”…Deputized, a two-hour pilot written by Joe Gazzam. The dramedy centers on an average guy who suddenly finds himself possessing special abilities after being accidentally fitted with an alien exoskeleton that cannot be removed. He is enlisted to serve on an intergalactic police force.“

”Alice is a six-hour miniseries from writer/director Nick Willing and executive producers Robert Halmi Sr., and Robert Halmi Jr. The miniseries is a modern-day retelling of the classic story of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.”
