Day Break Gets a Date
By: STEPHEN LACKEYDate: Sunday, January 21, 2007
When the highly underappreciated series Day Break was canceled ABC promised that the remaining episodes, which had already been filmed, would be posted online at abc.com. Instead what happened was they didn’t get posted, and the episodes that were already online got pulled. The word is that there were licensing issues with the music. Now all of that has been worked out and we’re finally getting those remaining episodes. Also, if you didn’t watch the series when it originally aired ABC is also posting all the previously aired episodes as well, so the whole series will be online for your viewing pleasure. Here are the dates that the episodes will start appearing online:
Episodes 101 through 110 Jan.29th
Episode 111 Feb. 5th
Episode 112 Feb. 11th
Episode 113 Feb. (series finale) Feb. 19th
If you haven’t seen this show I highly encourage you to check it out. It’s slick, suspenseful, and addictive. The entire story is told from beginning to end in 13 episodes so there’s no filler.
As for what’s on TV this week, well there’s a lot of really good stuff. My big picks are Prison Break, 24, Heroes, The Dresdin Files, and Battlestar Galactica. Monday nights are really gonna heat my DVR up!
Monday
