I think they might have been better off going with Mote in God's Eye, it seems much more easily converted into TV and if they want expansion options if it goes down well CoDominium is pretty parallel to Known Space in terms of material. Mote's more action-laced then Ringworld too.<br /><br />Still, fingers crossed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7703856341303488608.post-2169575063138842013-04-14T13:01:17.402+00:002013-04-14T13:01:17.402+00:00SyFy (Lord, I still hate that re-branded name)prob...SyFy (Lord, I still hate that re-branded name)probably has looked at the success of "Game of Thrones" and said, "Hmmmm...there is a large audience for fantasy, why can't we cash in on that for SF?"<br /><br />The problem, of course, is their horrible execution and mind-blowingly bad shows/movies. I can't tell you how little on that channel interests me.

I thought Caprica was a good idea that needed to pick up the pace. I loved Stargate Universe, which I thought was the best in the series, and BSG: Chrome could have been awesome. <br /><br />I'm sure I have forgotten some, but my point is that SyFy can make good shows they just don't give them enough time to build a following.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
