scifi post

It seems that there is a higher rate of sci-fi shows airing over the Summer (winter for southern hemisphere folk), and more often than not they are only 13 episodes long.

At the moment we have Defiance, Oprhan Black, Warehouse 13, Continuum.... with more starting up soon. (Haven!) Scifi also tends to go hand in hand with the shorter fantasy seasons too (Game of thrones! Teen Wolf!)

(please not their MIGHT be spoilers for the latest episodes in the comment)

Which current sci-fi shows do you watch? Defiance, Orphan Black and also Haven, GOT and of course Teen Wolf
Why are there no shows with spaceships? honestly I don't know, because there totally should be
Does the 13 episode (or less) format suit scifi shows? yep, not less but 13 is ok...because that way there are way less filler epis and it is not so easy "to lose" the plot (like in Lost for example)
Favourite cancelled scifi shows Firefly! BSG (even though the ending sucked), SGA
Why do you think big networks seem to be doing more scifi than syfy? hm, it's all about the money I guess, but tbh I haven't really thought about it
Any sci-fi tropes or formats you don't like?
hm, nope don't think so
