More on Alien Nation

Realising how much I was looking forward to Minear's take on Alien Nation, I went looking for older information, namely the original movie, TV series and subsequent movies. I started at imdb and wandered on from there, picking up a copy of the script for the original movie on the way. That series had more bite to it than I remembered - Minear is going to make this so dark that it's going to be pitch black!

Day One

SCI FI Wire has a trailer for this NBC series - the trailer certainly looks interesting, with good SFX and just enough of a glimpse of a bigger story to get me watching initially. Of course, that it belongs to my favourite sub-genre of SF - post-apocalyptic fiction - tends to get me interested anyway. Let's just hope it lives up to the promise of this trailer.
