SF/F TV renewals & cancellations guide

[DigiFluid]

LAST UPDATED: July 26

Have a similar thread going on at another forum (cough cough) and I don't really know why we don't have a main thread list for this here at GW, since shows getting renewed or cancelled seems to be such a frequent topic of discussion.... So here goes!

Supernatural has been renewed for S8.

Nice guide.


The Fades was cancelled by the BBC after the first season.

Yeah, definitely needed that one, why did we didn't have one before ? could we include Nikita as well? It has been renewed for a season three!

[gotthammer]

Huh. I was liking 'The Fades', and was curious as to how'd they continue it. Oh well.

Done-zo

*doffs hat*

I think its been confirmed that BBCs version of Sherlock is getting a series 3.
Merlin series 5 will premiere Autumn 2012.

[DigiFluid]

Sherlock isn't SF/F....haven't seen any confirmation as to when Merlin will air, hence I've not said

[Gen. Chris]

Touch's second season premiers less than a week after the first ends?

[DigiFluid]

I don't know what you're talking about

[Snowman37]

The only show I care about that's putting out new episodes is Sanctuary, and it may be over. On the bright side, there's shows on Netflix I've never watched.

[DigiFluid]

Amended!

[Blencathra]

Great idea for a thread.

Here's one that's in production, Digi. It will premiere in the Autumn (no specific date announced yet).

Filming starts on CBBC's Wizards vs Aliens.

This...is getting to be a lot of shows
