Minority Report – Monday on BBC1

still_001The BBC has decided, after more than 5 years, to put Minority Report on TV again.

As a way to end the extended holiday weekend, the Tom Cruise-led sci-fi action film is being shown again at 11pm on Monday (28th December 2020) in England.  Those in Wales have to wait until 11:30pm and Scotland another 15 minutes on top of that.  Looks like Northern Ireland aren’t getting a broadcast this time.

Rules in place in the UK at the moment require that you watch the film or Tom will shout and threaten to fire you if he sees you not doing so again.  You have been warned!

KM UK already has a comprehensive set of HD screencaps and a large sized promotional photograph seen above above in the Gallery.

Full details can be found on the BBC website here.

Start TV Starts CC On TV CC’s Stars Of CC

StartTV_My_Start_Story_part_2_011

The other week Start TV posted a couple of pages, with videos, about Kathryn and Tracie’s starts in the business that is show.  We covered it HERE.

Last week Start TV followed-up those two articles with a piece marking their ‘Investigation Week’, which includes Cold Case being broadcast from the beginning again today (29th July).

The initial focus of the newer feature is a collection of real-life investigators.  An FBI Special Agent, Chief Of Police, marksman, Canine Handler, a coroner, and Coast Guard.  As is the underlying theme of the whole TV channel, all the people being highlighted are women.

It continues with our two favourite ladies talking about what drew them to Cold Case, and Kathryn’s experience learning from Detective Tim Bass to inform her portrayal of Lilly Rush.

Colony S1 Gets ‘Pick’ed Up

colony_banner_2880x1260
I’m going to state up front that I am not sure if this is a new thing or not.  I may have not noticed this before because I haven’t been keeping a close eye on such things.

Tomorrow (15th Jan) Pick TV in the UK is showing the USA Network sci-fi-ish drama series Colony from episode one.  It starts at 10pm.  This could very well be a première for the channel.

Pick is one of Sky Televisions many channels, it used to be called Sky 3, and is available on the British free-to-air Freeview system as channel 11.  The schedules are largely made up of slightly older show repeats.

For those that haven’t been paying attention, Colony involves a near future Earth that has been invaded by an alien force.  They have contained what is left of the human population inside massive walled city ‘colonies’.  People are largely free to go about their lives but are under constant surveillance and will be banished to ‘The Factory’ for disobedience.  The show focuses on one particular family headed up by Josh Holloway (Lost) and Sarah Wayne Callies (Prison Break).  She runs a bar in Los Angeles and he is an ex-FBI agent recruited by the ‘powers that be’ as part of a human law enforcement team working on behalf of the aliens to root out rebellious elements.  Only, he’s not entirely loyal to his employers.

We only really covered season 1 here on KM UK because that is the one Kathryn starred in.  Her character of Charlotte Burgess, the wife of a Adrian Pasdar’s (Heroes) ambitious (and keen to stay alive) politician, was in just 3 episodes (plus a few ‘previously on’ flashbacks).  We have lots of Gallery content to enjoy.

Colony first aired in America in very early 2016 and came to the UK on Sky 1 in April of that year.  A DVD release came not too long afterwards.  Since then the show has had two more seasons, with a major shift in setting for the 3rd, but it was cancelled last summer.

Reverie On SyFy UK Tonight

artwork_006A quick reminder for those in the UK with access to the SyFy channel.

The new sci-fi-ish drama series Reverie, starring Sarah Shahi (Person Of Interest), Dennis Haysbert (24), Sendhil Ramamurthy (Heroes), Jessica Lu (Awkward.), and Kathryn Morris, starts tonight (2nd August) at 9pm.

The first two episodes will be shown back-to-back to kick things off.

Reverie’s Time Has Come In The UK

artwork_006Just over a month ago KM UK brought you the news of Reverie coming to the UK.  It turned out to be something of an exclusive report.

We had the channel (SyFy) and the date (August 2nd) for the première of season one on this side of the pond.  Previously I’d written that this would be very soon after the show ended in the America.  That was before I’d realised the 4th of July holiday week would delay the finale by a week, which will cause a small overlap.

Now we have a time of day and an additional promo video to go with it, though KM UK is a little late in bring this to you as there have been more pressing matters.

trailer_008So, those in the UK who want to watch Reverie and have access to the SyFy channel set your alarms for 9pm, a week on Thursday.  Plus, be prepared for a late night because they are starting with a double bill.  That’s right, back-to-back Reverie episodes one and two.

I feel that the promo videos that SyFy has put together are definitely playing up an aspect of the show, perhaps because they are a more specialist channel where as NBC in the US is more mainstream.  The new one builds on the first one, with a bit less of the Better Off Ted-style fake corporate video and more of a darker elements of the stories.  The butterfly features a lot again.

To recap:  Reverie, UK SyFy channel, 9pm, Thursday 2nd of August, two episodes.

The new video is, of course, in the KM UK Gallery HERE.
