According to the Sci-Fi Channel, Day Break on ABC
has been canceled and the December 20 episiode will not air on TV as previously scheduled. If that isn’t already
bad enough, ABC will air holiday themed repeats of George Lopez and According to Jim in its place.
Yikes!

  All is not lost, however. Day Break will continue on ABC.com via streaming video. For
those with a computer and a high speed internet connection in the US, the show will
continue.

  The online video is viewable even on my sub-standard DSL connection (see below).

  Those with faster connections will be able to watch the show at a larger screen size. Ideally,
a notebook computer could be plugged into a monitor style big screen TV and the experience would be
much the same as watching standard television.

  
LOST has inspired several zillion podcasts and now some of the LOST fans
are talking about Day Break in the message boards and at least one
LOST podcaster is talking about Day Break. CrankyFanatic.com has two podcasts: one for LOST and One for Day Break. I’ve been listening to both
of the podcasts in my Mitsubishi LOSTmobile and they are quite enjoyable with
some good insights into both shows. The web site can be found at www.crankyfanatic.com.

  
My favorite LOST writer, Javier Grillo-Marxuach, has now written a
comic book miniseries called Battlestar Galactica – Cylon Apocalypse
. Dynamite Entertainment is releasing the first
of the four part comic book miniseries in February of 2007. The series is based on the original Battlestar
Galactica TV series and begins with the bizzare scene of Cylon Raiders attacking one of their own Basestars.
Something even stranger happens next and the Cylon Apocalypse begins!

Javi keeps his fans updated through his blog at http://chaodai.livejournal.com/.
He also has a website called Radio Free Javi which links to a very funny
series of videos called Ask Javi! where he answers questions from his fans.
Javier Grillo-Marxuach also writes for the TV show: Medium and is responsible
for the new comic book series called The Middleman.

Javier Grillo-Marxuach is pronounced ha-vee-air gree-joe marks-watch
