It seems to be a new trend for older tv shows to show up on cable networks.
Sometime last fall, one of the Showtime channels began airing “The Magnificent Seven”, the TV series starring Michael Biehn and Eric Close. Now it looks like one of the Encore networks has begun airing “Dark Skies”, the scifi-mystery series starring Eric Close and Megan Ward.
Since “Magnificent Seven” showed up on DVD back in December (first season, anyway), I wonder if this means that “Dark Skies” might soon show up as well.
That was a decent series, hopefully I can rent it at nutbuster. If I remember right Seven also starred the guy who played the beast on Beauty & the Beast. I would also mention Hellboy but we’re keeping it old school.
Yes, he was Beast. Eric Close was also in “Now and Again”, and Dale Midkiff was also in Time Trax, so four of the seven have solid scifi ties.
