Watching it right now, thanks for the heads up. It's...well, okay, so far. But it needs to pick up, if it can stand comparison to Tin Man.

We need better original sci-fi programming, and this network (apart from this, and Tin Man, and Eureka) is not providing it.
They have had some good shows, I love the original Stargate series as well as Atlantis. BSG was absolutely fantastic! Admittedly most of their programming is dreck though.

Has a lot of great actors in it: Kathy Bates, Matt Frewer, Tim Curry, Harry Dean Stanton. It is a re-imagining of 'Alice in Wonderland', with a healthy dose of social commentary thrown in (not unlike the original). The characters are identifiable (Tweedledee and pal, The Dormouse, et al) but not one-for-one recreations. Anybody else see it? I was impressed with the cast and production. Looking forward to tonight's conclusion. http://news.lalate.com/2009/12/07/lewis-carrolls-syfy-alice-2009/http://www.syfy.com/alice/ Damn, we missed it.

Pohl is good, but no one is as good as Larry Niven and his 'known space'. I'm always on the lookout for more from him
