That they ask that question of themselves is why I’m putting it up. I have to respect at least a small amount of self-awareness in this regard. Because it’s a legitimate question.

The trailer for the canceled Tremors series.
Kevin Bacon’s Tremors series not picked up by Syfy.
Well, that’s a shame. I don’t know why Syfy decided not to pick up the Tremors series, after all. Although I suppose that the correct answer might simply also be the obvious one: Syfy just sucks at making good science fiction-related decisions. We can’t safely dismiss that possibility. It could be what happened.
As to what happens now? I dunno, I’m not actually an expert on TV shows. They’ve got a pilot, so presumably Kevin Bacon could go to a streaming service and maybe make a deal. I think. It’d be nice if it was on Amazon or Netflix, because then I could watch it.

Well.
OK.
That is certainly… certainly something that is happening. Continue reading Stranger in a Strange Land to be adapted by… :gulp: Syfy.
The ’12 Monkeys’ SyFy television series trailer.
I am… less frightened of this than I expected to be.
Which is odd, because I respected the original 12 Monkeys enough that normally I’d be upset that they were going to go and do the exact opposite from the original while using the same name*. Possibly it’s because I respected 12 Monkeys without liking it very much: it’s a good flick, but not a happy one.
Eh. The TV show could still very well suck.

*Like they do
“SyFy.” Ye gods.
Tycho of Penny Arcade speaks for me in this matter.
Gabe, on the other hand… well, that sort of thing has happened to all of us, really.
