    • battlestar_galactica.jpgA lot is in the works over at the SciFi channel. The network that focuses mostly on horror and science fiction type programming has been creating more and more original programming over the years. Stargate: Atlantis and Battlestar Galactica are two of the networks biggest programs. Battlestar will end its nearly four year run on the channel with another twenty episodes. The story there is not done though. It has been announced that there is prequel to Battlestar Galactica in the works called Caprica. The series will be created in the form of two hour long backdoor pilot, and work is set to begin filming this spring in Vancouver. Casting on the series starts soon.

      As for other happenings on the network, earlier this week it was announced that another new series will be brought to the network called The Stranded. This series is the first joint venture from the SciFi channel and Virgin Comics. Another series based on a comic book is also coming to the network in the form of True Believer based on a comic book by Rosario Dawson. Another series in the works is Deputized that follows a man that somehow obtains special powers that he uses as a member of an intergalactic police force.

      Following the outstanding performance of Tin Man late last year, the network is again looking to create a mini-series that takes on another great book and story of our time. This time we’re looking at a modern take of Alice in Wonderland simply titled Alice. I’m an avid watch of the SciFi channel, and I always have been. I watch Ghost Hunters on the network religiously, and I’m excited to take a look at some of these new offerings when they hit the network in the months ahead.
