The Tears of an Angel
The Buffy the Vampire Slayer spin-off, Angel, has reached the end of it's bloodsucking run. But we know at least one fan who is seeing red over the decision to cancel the series. Taste her red rage here ...

Re-thinking Re-imagining (or B.S. Galactica)
Joseph Nanni on why re-imagining classic SFF television series is enough to shrivel the soul of any true fan. Hmmm. Battlestar Galactica anyone?
03/2004

Sea of Souls
Interviews with actors Bill Paterson and Archie Panjabi, stars of the BBC's shortly-to-be-released new X Files-style television series, 'Sea of Souls'.
02/2004

Starfleet In Motion
There's rather a lot of crew on a Federation starship. So apart from jogging around a lot during a red alert, what the heck do they all do? Uncle Geoff muses on the unlucky blue shirts who draw the Enterprise's toilet duty.
02/2004

Blake's 7 Revival On Track For A Rebellion Reborn
Paul Darrow inks a rights deal with the estate of the late Terry Nation to bring back Blake's 7 to the TV screens.

06/2003

Why Some Things Don't Need To Be Resurrected
Geoff asks can, indeed should, Battlestar Galactica be revived in the same way Star Trek was resurrected with the Next Generation?
06/2003

Sold Down the Riverworld
Philip Jose Farmer's interesting premise of adventures set on a strange life-after-death-world is squandered on a fairly commonplace barbarian-planet story that appears to be the pilot for a most uninteresting and humdrum TV series.
05/2003

The Second Coming
Rod looks at the controversial BBC TV drama that posits the question, what would the world do if the Son of God returned as a video store assistant in the North of England?
04/2003

Fans Will Battle(star)
Fans fed up with Farscape being cancelled are now up in arms about the re-imagining of Battlestar Galactica. In fact, they're calling for a boycott.
03/2003

The Prisoner - Confined!
Uncle Geoff takes a look at the classic TV series The Prisoner, and ponders why the heck did Number 6 resign from the British secret service?
12/2002

Lost on the way to see the Brontosaurus
Mark Leeper explores the BBC's miniseries adoption of the Lost World, and finds it is the best of a not-very-good lot of adaptations of Doyle's great adventure novel of a forgotten plateau with prehistoric man and dinosaurs. The dinosaur re-creations are effective, but there are major discrepancies from the novel.
11/2002

Futurama Takes A Laser Blast Through The Chest. Doh!
Big Jim follows up on last month's Matt Groenig interview, with an article on the death of cartoon SF series Futurama. Was it Simpsons in Space, or has SF lost an unsung treasure?
07/2002

Never Fear, Smith Is Here!
Gary Oldman might have played Dr Zachary Smith in the Lost in Space remake flick, but for the real Dr Smith, you have to go back to the classic black and white TV series, says our Rod.
04/2002

X-Files In Limbo, But Lone Gunmen Slain
The X-Files conspiracy show spin-off, Lone Gunmen, is taken down by the scheduling assassins. Will the X-Files be the next to fall victim? We think the unthinkable … would it be such a bad thing if it did get canned.
06/2001

Buffy Defection Shocker
As a TV show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer features a lot of betrayals, intrigue and high soap. But that's nothing on what's been going on in real life, as the mischievous show defects to the enemy.
06/2001

Galactica Lives - Has Anyone Seen My Battlestar?
The X-Men movie team are being given the chance to make the new Galactica series. A darker, brooding Battlestar Galactica is promised … with a host of new Cylon models for Starbuck's children to shoot up. By your command, glorious reader.
03/2001

Andromeda Delights
Our American readers send in a slurry of reviews of this new TV SF extravaganza. Are you fans warming to it, and would you really want a walk-on part for Xena in the series?
12/2000

Dark Angel - It's Not Dark, And There's No Angels. Does This New Tv Series Cut The Mustard?
What with Andromeda, this must the time of year for dreadful new TV series to pilot.
11/2000

The Andromeda Strain - SF Genius Or Xena In Space?
We asked you last issue what you thought of the new Andromeda TV series. You responded with vigour, and it's not a pretty picture.
11/2000

Andromeda Angers Fans
Andromeda doesn't just have Hercules actor Sorbo in the lead role. This new SF TV series is causing a wave on controversy as it becomes clear just what Trek creator Gene Rodenberry really contributed to it.
10/2000

How Far Would You Go For Farscape?
The puppeteers behind the TV program have busted a gut producing the new second series of Farscape. Read if their labours were worth it here.
04/2000

Buffy's Sites Must Die
Suffer not a Buffy site to die - unless they're ripping off Warner Brother's intellectual property. And with all those darling pictures of the Buffster online, who's safe from the demon-drenched pit-bulls from hell that are Warner's legal team?

04/2000

The Return Of The Thunderbirds King
Gerry Anderson is pulling the strings again. But will his new dish be science fiction cheese or sci-fi caviar when it pops out of the special effects oven?
03/2000

Dr Who: Resurrection From The Dead
You can't keep a good Time Lord down. Heck you can't keep a really bad one down either. Yep, Doctor Who is making a come back in 2000, but will his sink-plunger nemesis the Daleks feature large in this BBC production?
03/2000

Jules Verne
Superspy Guy?
