Day Break may be returning to Canadian TV February 1st 2007.

Fans of ABC’s Day Break, starring Taye Diggs, were disappointed to learn of the show’s early cancelation last month. This show was slated to run its 13 episode course during Lost’s hiatus but was canceled after a mere 6 episodes due to poor ratings. As all episodes of this show have already been made there are plans still in the works for ABC to release the show online. Apparent problems with rights to music have hindered this process and it now seems they may be released online in late February.

The Canadian channel that played the show, Global TV, was even less forgiving than ABC and stopped airing the show 2 weeks earlier than ABC did. [Read the rest of this entry…]

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of seeing Apocalypto, the Mel Gibson directed epic about a Mayan tribesman who is captured and seperated from his family. This was perhaps the most graphic and violent movie I’d seen in some time, and the fact that it was presented as historically accurate it shook me more than the same level of graphic violence does nightly in various video games.

Marvel just released covers for April issues today, and as you can see on the cover on the left, Black Panther #27 features Ben Grimm, Johnny Storm, Storm, and the Black Panther riding in a FantastiCar. The previously touted image (featuring Ben and Johnny with Stardust and the Silver Surfer) is going to be the cover to the same month’s FF issue #545. And, a little more research says that the original leaked cover was just the cover to issue #544, which conveniently remains unviewable on Marvel’s website. So, it seems the team WILL consist of Storm and T’Challa, for at least a month, though the Ben and Johnny rockin’ duo may start playing russian roulette with the two open spots left by Reed and Sue. And, if the original leaked cover really is just FF #544, and the new space one really is the cover to #545, then this also tells us that Marvel’s putting Turner on FF covers. Which I guess is newsworthy to some. All in all, Marvel’s clearly playing the hype game they play whenever they leak something on accident, but history tells us that initial reports do tend to have it right. So, hopefully, that’s the end of that.
