Sci-Fi Channel to Pick Up John Doe

Posted by Zonk on from the next-show-planned-for-pickup-is-alf dept.

KrayzieKyd writes "The Sci-Fi Channel will be showing 'John Doe', another dead series that premiered with cult hit Firefly. It features a man with no memory of who he is but, but somehow has infinite knowledge. With his gift, he solves crimes which are hinted through his monochromatic sight with color. The show will re-premiere Friday, Jan 20 at 9pm ET." It's raining new shows on Sci-Fi, apparently.

    I like their creative choices of monsters too. I think the next one is going to be about people who are attacked by giant squirrels.

    Here is some inspiration from the news:
    Truce called in war on squirrels
    Squirrels Gone Wild
    Russian squirrel pack 'kills dog'

    That's going to be a good movie.

    NO, because unlike Wikipedia, Mr. John Doe is supposedly accurate all the time :-)

    Someone who knows history? What happened in 1969? Could it be...no, wait a minute, I think I've got it....we landed on the moon? The moon, as in "Luna"?

    I'm in -- on two conditions:
    1. On every show there is a character named "Brannon Braga" who is horribly mutilated in the first five minutes of the show.
    2. On every show there is a machine capable of raising the dead, so we can revive "Brannon Braga" for the next episode.

    I wish they would bring back Farscape.

    They did, only they dropped the muppets, and renamed it Fargate SG-1.
