Journeyman TV Show....

 The DVD?

For the Cancelled Show That Was On The NBC Channel!

Readers of our blog will know that 'Journeyman' was one of my favorite shows of the last TV Season.

Due to many factors, including a WGA Strike, the show was not continued after the Strike was settled.

Afterward hearing that the show was not coming back, some 'Journeyman' fans initiated an attempt to revive production of this series by sending boxes of Rice a Roni, which is a product associated with San Francisco where the show took place, to NBC executives!

As we learned at last year's San Diego Comic Con, another show's fans had done this successfully by sending "Nuts" to CBS executives.

That 'Nuts Campaign' led to a second season of the CBS series Jericho!

However this proved not to work in this show's revival, and even a petition drive was started that didn't get the results the fans wanted...

So now there has been a drive on to get the 13 episodes on a DVD for 'Journeyman'.

As of today, that DVD is not available, although you can put your name on a list when it is made available at "The River".

Since this blog post is first published in our eBay Blog, you can figure out what web site I am referring to...

Also, "the River" would have it on video on demand, however due to their licensing agreements, they cannot currently provide the video streaming online.

Sheesh!!

Well, when either is available, I'll probably hear about it and blog about it here! 

BTW, we don't have a TV Station or a Video Streaming Server here, but we do have an ongoing Comic Con  and Pop Culture convention here at Make It So Marketing, what with our daily blog posts and listings of items for sale!

Terminator:

 The Sarah Connor Chronicles

Premiered September 8th On The FOX Channel!

Michael and I lost interest in The Sarah Connor Chronicles last season after several rather bloody episodes.

While I love the Terminator movies - they're so cathartic -- I had a hard time with the tv show's unrelenting gore.  So, after a while, we gave up on it.  It was just too depressing.

But we decided to check out last night's season premiere - man did we miss a lot!

The best revelation was Cameron (the Terminator) survived the explosion but her mission changed when she rebooted -- to terminate John Connor -- cool!
 

And, I enjoyed seeing
"Mom" Sarah Connor get her ass kicked all over the place - she's so annoying - and another reason why we gave up on the show.

We're eagerly anticipating the "reboot" of the Terminator franchise with Terminator Salvation next year.  The movie chronicles the rise of John connor (Christian Bale) to lead the resistance. So, the new movie and the tv show are bookends around the Terminator story.

Knight Rider

Premieres September 24th On The NBC Channel!

We have already blogged about several new TV Shows and Films that are upcoming the rest of this year, that we either saw programs or premieres of at the San Diego Comic Con International in July 2008.

One of these is the upcoming 'Knight Rider' TV Show on NBC.

The reason for this blog post is because I take exception to the number given on the 'Expect-O-Meter Rating'  seen in the USA Today Weekend Edition.

The author of that article ranked this show very low with a '1' out of a possible '10' for expectations because NBC has only shown the earlier TV Movie, and teaser ads during the Olympics.

However, I saw the program and the trailer and the audience's great reaction to it at the Comic Con. The enthusiasm from the cast and from the new producer that was brought in was also very high and 'real'.

Actor Justin Bruening is the new Knight Rider, and his former girlfriend and new love interest is played by Deanna Russo.

What got me excited about the new TV Show is that the trailer that was shown is  much more promising than the origin story of the TV movie. There is a 'team' now backing up Knight Rider and KITT, not just a duo act!

Gary Scott Thompson, one of the new producers, was brought in after the TV Film was made, and I like his new vision for where the series is going.

However, the show is up against another show that we watch, 'Pushing Daisies' Wednesday nights at 8 PM, so one of these two shows will have to be taped to be viewed later!

So, with a new vision for the TV Show versus what was aired in the TV Movie, I am giving it an '7.75' on my expectation meter!

So, time will tell how the show fares... the show is up against 'Pushing Daisies', 'Bones', and 'New Adventures of Old Christine' among others.

 Did You Watch

 'Samurai Girl'

This Weekend?

She Was On The  ABC Family Channel!

We have blogged about several new TV Shows and Films that are upcoming the rest of this year.

We were able to see either previews or actual premieres of several of these, including the Season Premier of 'Heroes' at the 2008 SDCC San Diego Comic Con International.

One that neither Tina or I were able to see was the program on 'Samurai Girl'...

Tina was watching another set of programs, while I stood in line for the Samurai Girl program... to no avail!

You see, there were hundreds of others in line before me for that program, as con goers have learned to go to an earlier program to sit and be able to see the following program that they really want to see!

Thus it was for 'Samurai Girl' which had too small of a room for all that wanted to get in to see it.  Add to that fact, that the next program following had even more fans waiting to get in, and they were there early too!

So all I was able to do was to pick up a few of the 'Samurai Girl' temporary tatoos as my reminder of not being able to get in to see that program!

We have listed a few of them in our eBay Featured Store, now that the 'Samurai Girl' mini series debuted this past Friday Night and has run for Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights!

If you didn't get to see all 6 episodes, you can still catch them on the ABC Family dot com web site.

But you can't pick up any tatoos there, LOL!

 She Was

 Seven Of Nine!

That's Jeri Ryan 

On Star Trek: Voyager!

This past weekend we went comic book store shopping to pick up more recent backstock.

One of the issues I kept coming across in various condition grades at one store was the Battlestar Galactica Issue #0 with a Tricia Helfer photo cover that was suitable for framing for collectors!

(Click here to see that blog post with photo.)

At the same time I admitted I hadn't kept up with Battlestar Galactica, although there have been several panels or programs at comic cons we have been to!

However, one other sci-fi show that I did keep up with was Star Trek Voyager, which in my mind had a great addition to the series with 'Seven of Nine' played by Jeri Ryan!

Matter of fact, it was because she was prominent in the early episodes of 'Shark' that I watched that show the first season it was on!

The new TV Season is upon us, but once again we are getting it in bits and drabs... some shows start this week, and others like 'Pushing Daisies' premeieres on October 1st!

Oh well, we have enough to blog about right now, that we won't be doing episodes reviews here this year!
