Sci-Fi Channel gets new shows for July - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Not only is Beyond Belief coming to the Sci Fi Channel but several other shows will be also be coming, too. From July 8-12, Starman will air. This short-lived series which aired on ABC from 1986-87 was the sequel to the 1984 hit movie of the same name with Robert Hays assuming the Jeff Bridges role. Unfortunately, stiff competition from CBS and NBC gave the show low ratings and was cancelled. As far as I know, the show has never aired in syndication. From July 15-19 another 80's short-lived series, Something is Out There will air in the same time slot. This eight episode series featured a police detective paired with a beautiful alien with special powers. The week after that, Sliders will air for the first time in several years at 7:00-8:00 P.M.

Be sure to catch these shows while you can.

I saw the logo for "Starman" during the Sci Fi Classics Commercial they air a lot these days. Hmm Maybe I'll check one of those shows out.

I'm glad they're bringing "Sliders" back into rotation.
"Starman," I'm not so sure of...
