Sci Fi Channel has acquired rerun rights to Star Trek: Enterprise along with several other series, made-for-TV movies, and miniseries.
Its deal with CBS Paramount Domestic Television also includes a renewal of exclusive cable rights to the classic series The Twilight Zone; the TV show Tales From the Darkside; and such short-lived series as CBS's Threshold, starring Carla Gugino, and Wolf Lake, with Lou Diamond Phillips, as well as UPN's Jake 2.0, starring Christopher Gorham, and Haunted, featuring Matthew Fox. Other acquired titles include the series Kindred, the Embraced, Level 9, Special Unit 2 and All Souls.
Sci Fi said it's planning to premiere Enterprise, a Star Trek prequel that stars Scott Bakula and ran from 2001-05 on UPN, in early fall. Tales From the Darkside will premiere later this year, and the other acquired series will debut sometime during the 2006-07 season.
Along with the series, Sci Fi has exclusive cable rights to five made-for-TV movies and three miniseries. The films include Inferno, starring Jeff Fahey; Lost in the Bermuda Triangle; Primal Force, starring Ron Perlman; Sightings: Heartland Ghost, starring Beau Bridges and Nia Long; and Trilogy of Terror II.
The miniseries are Invaders, which also stars Bakula; The Langoliers, originally one of four short stories in the Stephen King novel Four Past Midnight, which stars Dean Stockwell and Patricia Wettig; and The Stand, also based on a King novel, and starring Gary Sinise and Molly Ringwald.
I sure would like to see them further develop "Threshold". (I actually started watching TV again last Fall (2005) when they had "Surface", "Invasion", and "Threshold" all premiering as new series.)
I agree with you somewhat. But since I own it doesnt matter to me what network or cable out let it lands on, So to speak.
