Shortly before the Painkiller Jane TV movie came on caught a promo of the Blake's 7 audio adventures on Sci Fi with the voiceover saying "The return of a legend". (Let's hope the upcoming new TV version from Sky One will be just as good as the audio series).

As for Painkiller Jane, the film was pretty good with Emmanuelle Vaugier very good in the title role. The film was a backdoor pilot for a possible series which was eventually approved. However I have read the series appears to be a reboot discarding the film's backstory and starting anew. The series had a new cast with Kristanna Loken as Jane.

This is a shame for the Emmanuelle Vaugier project as it is obvious from the film's ending that there was room for more stories to tell.

Do not know as yet whether the Kristanna Loken series will come to Sci Fi.

Tonight in Sci Fi's usual screening of double episodes of Jericho at 7:30pm, the first of the episodes is a recap episode about the first half of season 1 not previously shown on Australian TV.

The Dresden Files is finally coming to Australian TV via Sci Fi next month:

By some other way I have already seen the first 9 of the 12 episodes. Quite a fun show to watch.

Look forward to see the three episodes I haven't seen on Sci Fi.

The series starts on Monday September 8 7:30pm.
