SCI FI announces official season start
by Doc on May.16, 2005, under Television
July 15th will mark the return of the SCI FI Channel’s big three – Stargate: SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, and Battlestar Galactica. One cast change I hadn’t heard before: Jason Momoa (Baywatch, North Shore) is joining the cast of Atlantis – no details, but IMDB lists him as “Ronan Dex”. Also in the announcement is the new reality show Master Blasters starting July 27th, which sounds like a rocket-specific version of Scrap Heap/Junkyard Wars, and the return of Ghost Hunters and Tripping the Rift (With Carmen Electra replacing Gina Gershon as Six).
