“SPACE continues to expand its schedule. We are delighted to introduce the Monday-to-Friday strip runs of Canadian sci-fi series Stargate SG-1 and PSI-Factor, and the terrific daily double strip of Angel paired with Buffy the Vampire Slayer. New season episodes of Angel and Enterprise will continue weekly, and contemporary classics such as V have been added into the mix."

The new additions to SPACE's fall line-up also include the Battlestar Galactica miniseries, a remake of the classic series; James Cameron’s Dark Angel; the “sci-fi western” Firefly...

FIREFLY
Coming in September
Set 500 years in the future in the wake of a universal civil war, Firefly tells the tale of Serenity, a small transport spaceship without a homeport. Lead by renegade Captain Malcolm Reynolds, the Serenity crew must fly to the border planets to keep away from the Alliance and below it's radar. Stars Canadian-born Nathan Fillion.

Yet another reason why Canadians kick ass.

Someone up there in Canada is on the ball.

hmm. Might be time to recheck the local sat. providers and see if my part of the states can get that channel.

Unfortunately, according to the SpaceCast FAQ's:

I live in the U.S.A. How can I get SPACE?
SPACE is licensed for distribution in Canada only. Many of our programs are licensed to other networks in the USA. Currently there are no plans for us to offer our station in the US, via satellite or cable.

Actually, "Firefly" already aired on Canada's Global the same time it did on the US's FOX. However, SPACE is picking it up for rebroadcast meaning we'll get to enjoy the reruns. Even though I'll be buying the DVDs, I figure I'll still tape all these episodes since my computer monitor is rather cramped for a show like FF.

I used to live to in Seattle, and let me tell you that the SPACE channel eclipses Sci-Fi ten fold in their programming.

I just sent Space an email telling them I wish the US got the channel. The programming line up looks real damn good.

Interesting to know about the previous Canadian run at the same time as U.S. Every day I wake up and think of a new reason to move to Canada.

Fanta and Firefly. Good choice in soft drink and TV shows. Also good choice in waterfalls as the Canadian bit of Niagara is by far the better one. There are of course many other good things, but ever since I went to Europe I’ve missed my Fanta (only found out recently that it can be had in Canada) and ever since Fox was stupid I’ve missed my Firefly.

SPACE is really vastly superior to the US SciFi channel, and I am thoroughly delighted that Firefly will be on this autumn. Too bad this channel isn't available in the USA.
