True Blood returns to HBO on June 26th, and today a brand new trailer for it hit the interwebs; enjoy!
This Friday is the season 3 finale of Fringe, and they have released a full-tilt Theatrical trailer with 2 minutes of edge-of-your-seat action at the end of the world. This has been a great season, I am expecting a serious cliffhanger to end it so we will all be screaming for the next season to start already.
As we all know, the new season of Doctor Who starts this Saturday on BBC America, just a few hours after it airs on the BBC UK. And today, BBC America has announced it is getting two more new shows as well as another season of Being Human for its Supernatural Saturday lineup. The Outcasts is a colonization story on another planet, where humanity gets a shot of starting over (more details on the UK official site). Bedlam is the story of people living in an apartment complex that was an insane asylum a century ago, and the interesting ghosts who haunt them. This one is from Sky TV rather than the BBC, which I find promising. Perhaps they will bring more Sky programs over, such as the Terry Pratchett specials they do each year; coming up next is Going Postal, besides Going Postal previous outings have given us Hogfather and The Color Of Magic.
Ga-Rei-Zero will be released this Tuesday; here is a taste…
It has been a bit of a fight today trying to find something to blog about. One of my favorite stories, and I really hope it is true, is about Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner-like TV show. The only other Philip K. Dick TV series I know about was the wonderfully done Total Recall 2070 made in the ’90s and run on Showtime in this country. It is a bit hard to find the series on DVD (mostly because they haven’t released it except for the pilot), but you can always watch it on Hulu. This being April Fools Day, however, I am not going to trust any source posted today. Luckily, yesterday it was announced that the BBC has ordered more Dirk Gently episodes. So far they have only aired the pilot episode of this dramatization of everyone’s favorite Douglas Adams detective, and the new order is only for three more of them, but that is still four more than I had expected to see. Now to start the letter writing campaign to BBC America to get them to pick it up.
The first full length season 6 Doctor Who trailer went online very shortly ago (it had 302 views when I got to the web page, so its fresh!). It looks like its going to be another exciting season, and thanks to io9 for the heads up on this one.
