SF Signal: Tube Bits For 07/27/2007

Tube Bits For 07/27/2007

Surprise! Michael is back on LOST, as announced at surprisingly influential Comic-Con 2007.

And pity the poor TV critics who feel that Comic-Con is stealing TV news thunder from the Television Critics Association press tour. Please stop whining. It's clear that Comic-Con does more as far as promotion for TV shows than a press tour for critics.

If you've spent any time at the Heroes website, you know that NBC has a series of short comic 'books' that help flesh out the story. DC Comics will be releasing a hardcover version of those comics, sometime in the near future.

Rob Buckley, a UK journalist, offers his impressions of the upcoming Bionic Woman show. Supposedly a new version of the pilot will be screen at, yes, Comic-Con 2007. Maybe his feelings will change.

The News&Observer gives 4400 reasons to love summer TV. I keep hearing about how good The 4400 is, but I've never seen it. Maybe I should head on over to NetFlix. And I know Tim appreciates the Burn Notice plug.

4400 is showing at my local tv station, but I do not watch it. I saw a couple of episodes and it seemed like a crime procedural with a sf twist. Apparently that changed. Am I missing something?

My wife and I watch 4400 every week, but more for the premise than for the content. The first season was decent, but ever since then (I think this is season 4) we've been disappointed. It is NOT that good.
